Lovely Surprise
The room was far nicer than expected and incredibly clean. Would be one of the top top hotels if it had a pool.

Quick but pleasant visit!!
Very short stay. But the room was perfect. No pool or anything (wasn’t expecting one at a hostel) But nice comfy room! Would recommend for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative. Very near the strip, beach, bars restaurants shops etc

Torrenova - Palma de Mallorca
Hostal Jakiton was a great choice of hotel to stay in, especially when all the other bigger hotels charged so much to stay in the area. Jakiton was small, clean, well located and easy to find. My main issue was with when the rooms were cleaned the bedding and bins were changed but the floors were not hoovered and a number of insects were often inside, not a major issue but mildly unpleasant. Another issue was with the WiFi, despite it beings available I spent most time using data as the signal and capacity of the wifi was useless for being used in a hotel (if my parter was using it, I couldn't) Staff were very friendly and helpful (even if they only spoke Spanish) as would always say hello and ask how you are doing and if you needed anything. Weather in October is a bit wild, lot of thunderstorms and rainstorms but also days when it was getting to around 27-29 degree's outside! (Celsius), but chilly at night but not cold by any means. A beautiful place to go on holiday, little too close to Magaluf for comfort, but it was out of season so it wasn't as bad as I would have been. Would definitely recommend this for people staying in/ near Magaluf for the food, local people having a bit of a drink every now and then. If your after a party holiday probably not the best idea.

A 4* Hostal
Simple and cheap Hostal. Staff are friendly, however if you’re out there on a mad lads or girls holiday. They aren’t overly fond of the noise or messing around. - For the price, it’s a bed, shower and toilet.

A great small accommodation between Magaluf and Palmanova. Clean with friendly staff. Basic facilities and no pool but ideal if you want to be on the beach by day and out eating, drinking etc at night. Nice and quiet - unusual in this area!

Great value for money in a quiet, clean hotel
went on a stag do, but wanted to stay in a hotel away from the main strip of Magaluf, so it would be quieter. Hotel clean and good value for money, good air conditioning and quiet even though restaurant and supermarket close by. It is basic hotel but sufficient for my need as I only wanted to sleep in it.No food served in hotel, but plenty of places to eat close by.

Good location, arrogant staff!!
We got threatened 3 times to get kicked out and that were to check out and leave us on the streets just because 2 mates who were also on holiday kept coming round, in the booking it didn't state NO FRIENDS ALLOWED IN ROOM, the man who owned it was the most spiteful, arrogant idiot I've ever came across in my life, I wouldn't stay here again just because of him if you paid me!

Perfect
Absolutely perfect location if you want to be close to the main strip or the beach. I've heard a lot of bad things about hostels, but after seeing this one, I'm not sure what anyone is talking about. I give Jakiton a 4.5 out of 5. Only thing missing was breakfast.

"Ideal location & good value"
My fiancée & I booked this accommodation for two nights as part of a cheap short break to visit friends. Communication from the hotel was very good before we arrived & the staff were very friendly & helpful when we did arrive. The room was clean & comfortable, no aircon but hey ho! The hotel is ideally located for the beach, nightlife & restaurants. Would definitely recommend!

Nice wee clean hotel!
Stayed here for 5 nights and was pleased with this wee hotel. The room was cleaned and new towels were given every day. If you're looking for a party hotel and liveliness then this hotel isn't for you as there's no pool and not too much noise apart from the family hotel across the road. It's a short walk to beach and it isn't far from the magaluf strip! We were provided with a decent fan without cost aswell as the key to the safety deposit box. These added wee extras really helped us out. Would stay here again as it's cheap and comfortable!

Fantastic location
Hotel staff , one man in perticular , entered my room late evening with a key !!! He just walked in & accused myself & my son of making a banging noise , we had done nothing wrong !!!! He shouted at me as if I was a child , in Spanish , may I add , this frightened me & ruined my stay , no apology was given , he was obnoxious & rude & told my son to get out !!! I had paid for a double room .

Brilliant hotel
My girlfriend and I booked a holiday on the cheap to get away for a couple of days, we didn't expect much from this hotel being the price it was but it far exceeded expectations, very friendly staff upon arrival, room was very clean and fresh. Location is really good being a 5 minute walk from the main night life but being far enough out the way not to be disturbed at night if you want to just relax. It is next to magaluf lively hotel but you don't hear anything from them till about 11 if you hear anything at all. In all we both loved our stay here, the only downfall is no air con but how much do u want for the money u spend. Would definitely go back again.

Great value
Rooms clean and comfy. No aircon but I knew this before booking. Ceiling fan was adequate. Check in and out very easy. Fab price for hotel within 100m of the beach And 200 m from the nightlife. Small hotel so pretty quiet Would defo recommend this.

A diamond in the rough
We booked this place expecting it to be a bit rough, considering it's located right on the edge of the boozy part of Torrenova, and it seems to be half hostel, half hotel from what we could tell. Driving back there in the evening was a funny affair, with drunken people falling about everywhere on the main road...But the great thing was, just before reaching the hotel, the hoards of drunken people suddenly subsided, and actually, once you park up, enter your room, and shut the door, it's just like any other basic, but clean and generally nice hotel. Think slightly "weathered" travelodge. The streets immediately surrounding the hotel are surprisingly quiet considering what's located 300ft up the road...It's kinda like an invisible force field holding them all back. Parking is limited (it's all meters really), but I asked the hotel owner if he had any spaces, and he does have a few down the side of the building, which we were able to park in every night (I'm guessing most people that stay there don't drive). For the price, I have no complaints.

good value for money
Rose above expectations we had especially given it is a hostel and so cheap. Our balcony was lovely and definitely the best asset to the room. In addition everything was very cleanans the beds were very comfy. The hostel is far enough from the strip to guarantee some privacy and peace yet still has a very central positioning - and only a 2 minute walk frohtge beach.Only downsides - would have liked a fridge as standard inatead of having to pay (which as students we did not) and we had no ceiling fan, just a portable one that smelt slightly of burnt when left on.. Air conditioning would have been better as we had to sleep with the door open, got bitten , and because jakiton is next to the 'magaluf lively' loud booming music from 9am was annoying. In addition although to owner was lovely i only saw her when we checked in. No personnel were ever there... It was an odd and slighly impersonal experience. We needed to ask her abour airport transfer times prices etc but she was nowhere to be found. Also cleaning staff incredibly grumpy.. Suggesting we were harbouring a third guest undercover, telling us off for having food in the room (despite the hostel clearly being non inclusive and us being students..) and generally goving a negative vibe as if we were in the wrong the whole time. On the whole a positive experience with great value for money, and would stay here again although would hope to see a fridge without having to pay.. airport te

Creo que en total entre la señora de la limpieza y l dueña entraron 5 veces en nuestra habitacion sin permiso alguno y diciendo que no pasaran. Usan las llaves como les da la gana i creo que hay 0 intimidad. Porque mi amigo dormia con la sabana, porque si llega a entrar i no lleva la sabana, lo encuentra con ropa interior durmiendo.
