KEEP AWAY ITS HORRIBLE!Thus place was beyond belief, the only good comments on this hostel are posted by the creepy owner, we arrived dirty and sweaty and still wouldnt get in the horrible showers, the noise was really really bad and there was no lock in the dorm room doors,i felt really unsafe the whole time i was there. To be TOTALLY honest AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!!! Way over priced there is better and cheaper out there!

The location is prety good, but I had some strange bites after sleeping in the bed. Some of the staff don't seem too motivated

Very handy for the beach. Met some incredibly awesome people there and the owner of the Hostel was very kind and helpful and made me feel very welcome!

All the people that have knocked this hostel with their reviews are a little precious I feel! This hostel was really good, yeah a touch over priced but you are paying for the location which is superb. Its a bit old but was clean and tidy and had a great stay.

Contrary to what others said, I found the staff to be generally very nice. I do agree that the showers/bathrooms were pretty disgusting though. Location is very convenient for seeing the sights. Not a bad last minute choice, but Iīm sure you could do better for the money if you book ahead somewhere else.
