A nice 3 storey house with a gorgeous view from the rooftop. Beaches are a 20min walk downhill and it’s rough walking back up Downstairs kitchen cupboards were full of mould, shower curtain was yellowed and the shower drains flood. Stay was cut short due to some emergency works that had to take place Overall not a terrible place to stay, there is a rooftop kitchen so you can avoid downstairs

This highlight of this hostel was the rooftop with the perfect ocean view. It was even better at sunset. The rooms itself were three beds high which would really suck if you were on the top bed. Bathroom was decently clean. It is located on top of a big hill and is about a 20 minute walk from the beach and 30 minute walk from the main beach town area. I would totally stay again but request a lower bed
