The rooms in the hostel are fitted with a coffee machine. All guest rooms at Daydream Medano Coliving come with a shared bathroom and bed linen.

We were so impressed with Daydream. I now understand why it’s called a co-living space and not a hostel. The place is managed really well by caring and friendly staff. All the common areas close down at 10pm, which is great for those who want to rest. Seems like it could be a party hostel, but it’s really not. Everyone is super respectful of noise and space. People of all ages were staying there when we were there. The rooftop is lovely. The kitchens are well-equipped with everything you might need. There’s even filtered drinking water in the downstairs kitchen. It is also cleaner than just about any hostel I’ve ever stayed in. They even provide towels and body wash. I also can’t forget to mention the location, 2 min walk to the beach and surrounded by restaurants, coffee shops and a couple of supermarkets.

As someone who usually prefers renting rooms instead of going to hostels, this was a very surprisingly awesome stay! I had a good sleep and the guests and staff were very open and nice. It felt like a little community and you could make friends and have good conversations quickly. Also, they were very flexible with special requests. I would 100% recommend coming here.

    Very friendly staff, the vibe in the hostel was amazing, great location, many supermarkets, restaurants and different beaches close by, you can wash your clothes at the hostel for a small fee and cook your own meals. One of the best things was that you could lend a surfboard, balls and other cool stuff for free, really amazing!
