You'll love this 17-room hostal located on Calle Calverde. The Calle Valverde is a vibrant street, home to many Spanish stars and starlets who reside there. And, yes there are a few seedy puti clubs (strip joint), one in fact, directly across from Hostal La Fontana.

The small double rooms have twin beds and built-in shelving systems. The curtains are a sheer scarlet color and are complimented by IKEA-like reading lamps and mirrors. The bathrooms, also on the smaller side, have freshly cut orchids in them.

The only thing Fontana seriously lacks is air conditioning, with ceiling fans trying their best to make do during stickier summer months.

My only problem with this hostel is that my friend and I (we are both young girls) were locked outside the main doors for over 20 minutes after 1 am. We were very lucky that two other guests were waiting with us but we were nervous and scared.

Other than that, the location was unbeatable and the staff was great.
