Reviews of Auberge K-WAN Hostel - Proche Plages

Ideal location to use as a base to explore Basse-Terre. If you need to go to Pointe-a-Pitre or points in Grande-Terre it takes forever by public bus. You don't need to rent a car to move around, but going places by bus and autostop takes time. Very convenient restaurant and grocery store next door, with very reasonable prices. Blandine was very effective helping me organize tours and transfers.

As a non-smoker it was a little annoying to share the common spaces with people who smoked a lot, but it wasn't a big issue.

The location is good to go explore the western coast of Basse-Terre, nearest gorgeous beaches are walking distance. Lots of solo travellers, which is nice. Next to the hostel there is a place to eat, every evening they have something else, so I didn't feel the need to cook. (There are cooking facilities available though.)

The room was said to have 4 beds, but it had 6, and it made it very crowded.

The location was great, it was 3min by car to the beach.

It wasn’t clean at all, i didn’t meet any person in charge of the structure. The population isn’t good, there was a drunk man who was screaming all the time, the bedroom is insanitary, it was horrible staying here even for only two nights

Great having a room to myself. Welcoming host. Kitchen well-equipped. Walking distance to Plage de La Perle. Boulanger next door.

Nothing… but a car would be helpful to get around.

Great place to hang out for a few days.

A spacious studio with good hot water, wifi and a/c at a very reasonable price. In a hostel with a friendly but not noisy atmosphere.

I felt under pressure to arrive earlier than I wanted to so the, otherwise very nice, manager could go home.

The private room I stayed in was beautiful and very comfortable. The hostel is in walking distance to the Plage de la Perle.

The owners are very nice! And it's women owned which is Amazing. Friendly hostel to sleep and to enjoy life.

Nice vibe with a mix of hostel and private rooms. We'll run and very nice proprietors. Supplies and pastries next door! We'll done.

Chickens.

Clean place with great views. Great location. Beautiful beach nearby. Lots of places to eat nearby. Bud stop very close. Highly recommended.

Close to one of the most beautiful beach in Guadeloupe. Parking next to the door and bus stop across the street. 2 small stores across the parking lot for simple food.

Neighbouring room and road can be noisy. Cockroaches in the laundry room. Room can get stuffy.

At the first look the location seems to be a bit dull because it is located directly at the main road and there is just a supermarket nearby. But in the end, I think it is much better than Deshaies, because Plage de la Perle is within walking distance (10-15 minutes) and it's also possible to walk through a nice pathway to Plage de Grande Anse. Several food options and a craft brewery are also within walking distance.

Great value for money, the private room is a small apartment with all the facilities

Thin walls, some noise from other rooms

great location , close to the best beaches of Gwadloop if you like the authentic and less touristic beaches stretching along the Western coast of Basse Terre. The two ladies running the hostel , Blandine and Pauline, are really open-minded and available for any questions and help. On top, there is a bakery (patisserie) and shop as well as a pizza shgop right next to the hostel, which is great to get your breakfast or supply for the beach day just in front of the hostel !!

The only little inconvenient, its directly on the road, but normally there is not too much traffic :)

Everything and the book exchange :)

Location by the main Street a bit noisy
