I have been coming to this hostel since my backpacking days in 1994.

They speak many languages.(I spoke English, Catalan, Spanish, and German with them). This isn't your ordinary hostel. It has an amazing breakfast and if you ask, you can request to have your breakfast on the rooftop. It has the very best view of Tossa. I spent many nights after partying having a night cap at the hotel before going to bed. Now that I am older, I enjoy sitting at the bar and talking with the owners after a nice dinner. They also have a pet turtle that I have come to love and now that I have children, even my daughter wants to stop and see the turtle. The rooms are clean. The service outstanding! The price is perfect. We have so many wonderful memories. The hostel is a success because of word of mouth. I used to be able to just show up but know I strongly recommend getting a reservation. There is no swimming pool, but I question anyone who goes to Tossa to swim at a pool. The water, beach and castle walls are wonderful.

The hostel is located in a place that seems to be the most ugly place of Perpignan. It is hidden in a side street of Avenue Grande Bretagne. On the other side of the hostel, a main road passes and makes many noise. From afar, the building makes a beautiful impression, but the closer you get you realize that the house is really derelicted. When you open the gate to enter the yard a barking dog rushes towards you. We waited nearly 10 minutes in front of the reception desk, despite ringing nobody came. The entrance hall is small, atmospheric simply unpleasant, looks cold and without any personal touch. The impression continues in the room which was large, but was about the atmosphere of a prison cell. It surely hadn't been properly cleaned since the last guests (the toilet actually was ckean). Although I had been advised on the phone, I should not arrive late, at one o'clock in the night the door opened and an apparently drunken Spanish truck driver began to talk to me on Spanish telling me his whole life story. I couldn't sleep anyway, because at that time there was still noise down in the court, which did not cease even after several requests from my part. The breakfast the next morning was typical for the french youth hostels: bread, moldy (!) Butter, jam and coffee. For things to do for the day, the young lady at the front desk didn't have any proposition, she even hadn't the times for the bus to the beach. (Take the bus line direction Canet from Perpignan main railway station). And we couldn't look them up on the internet because there is none, though so indicated on the website of the FUAJ. We were glad when we left the hostel after two days. I will NEVER come back again.

The room is very simple with no extras, but the shower is strong, the room clean and the staff friendly. Free wifi that doesn't suck. Bed was too firm for us though. Didn't try the restaurant in the evening, but the included breakfast was ok. Overall, good value.
