Bathrooms very smelly and not clean. Dorms are tiny with no windows and very bas air con. Only good thing about this hostel was the location on a fab beach and the bar wasnt to bad at night, bit of fun. Bathrooms very smelly and not clean.

I love this place but some of the staff seemed to have little knowledge of what was happening. Our booking was mucked up, We were greeted with \"Obviously you don\'t have a booking\" when we arrived, then they found they had booked us incorrectly by 2 months...We failed to recieve a genuine apology. Bar here is great, bar staff great with great drink specials. Facilites here are average but the location and bar makes it a great place to stay! Our window also could not be locked.I love this place but some of the staff seemed to have little knowledge of what was happening.

Not exactly my cup of tea to be honest. if you are into cheap booze and cheesy dance music then this is the place for you. If however you want somewhere more chilled and not so in your face then avoid here. It's a big hostel and not all the staff are that friendly. Average dorm rooms and very noisy at night.

location of the hostel directly on the beach is really great. if you like to have fun and party all night, then this is the place for you. if you are looking for a place to relax you should keep in mind, that there is party nearly all night... all in all nice place to stay also it is not the cleanest onelocation of the hostel directly on the beach is really great. if you like to have fun and party all night, then this is the place for you. if you are looking for a place to relax you should keep in mind, that there is party nearly all night... all in all nice place to stay also it is not the cleanest one...Close

Not a hostel you want to stay when you want sleep before 1 am. It was good that the hostel organized a lot of things, like beach volley and a BBQ.

This hostel has the most AMAZING location. You are seconds from the beach. The bar is great and serves lovely and cheap food. The reception staff are not helpful and are very rude - many a time they ignored me when i had a query!! the dorm rooms are fine, not much space but thats ok as all you are going to do is sleep in it. The kitchen is very small and not very clean. lots of ants everywhere but thats it! all in all a good hostel and great fun!This hostel has the most AMAZING location. You are seconds from the beach.
