The rooms are smelly and the showers mouldy. The breakfast and the dinner were nice though. Drinks are cheap and the hostel offers Dinner at a fair price. Not the worst place I have stayed.

The hostel had good location to the beach and this was prob the only positive thing about it! It was dirty, the bed across from mine was covered in bugs! The showers were rubbish with no hot water! All the trips that the hostel provide we're over priced compared to other hostels in the area! The 'bar' is a fridge with beer in it and a small can of beer costs 3 times more than it does in the supermarket which is about 200 metres from the hostel!The hostel had good location to the beach and this was prob the only positive thing about it!

Great hostel but not suitable for everyone. In a good location and close to the beach and a supermarket. Staff were very helpful. Dorm was extremely hot. Character good, but sometimes difficult to get drinks. Bar closes at 12. Food good, especially breakfast. Great if you´re on a very tight budget, and if you are travelling in a big group or solo. Not so great for small groups, and only really targets one specific age group: 18-24. Great hostel but not suitable for everyone. In a good location and close to the beach and a supermarket.

Good location a short walk from the beach. Staff were great and it was easy to organise tours and activities there. Breakfasts were amazing and thought optional pizza/ bbq nights were a good idea.
