Customer review

With my spouse / partner

Backpacking / gap year

11 January 2012

Liked: Games room and tv room gave good entertainment options when raining

Disliked: We stayed 3 nights and I got bitten by bed bugs 2 out of 3 nights. Staff had bad attitudes and were more interested in their own business than helping guests. Was only allowed to change rooms after the second night and a large protest to the girl at the front desk. We would have left after the first night due to the bed bugs but paid all nights up front.

Liked: The price.

Disliked: The location is great if you just want to go to the beach, otherwise, it is a little far from the cente. The staff is kind, but often helpless, they cannot give you a map of the city or tell you were is the visitor center !! The kitchen is inaccessible before 12PM. The living room is really great, but they put a very loud music... The laundry service was broken, and there is no laundry service around (except very expansive services).

19 September 2010 Andrew would recommend this property

Liked: Big place 50 meters fromt the sea front and near the beach. Opposite the supermarket. Handy for the bus to the pelo. Very helpful staff minus the incident below.

Disliked: Booked a transfer from the airport and it didn't show. Tried to phone and they were constantly engaged. Got a taxi and then when we arrived the girl didn't apologise but looked puzzled, suggesting it was not the norm. A little annoyed that we got no apology and had to fight for the hostel to pay the extra towards the taxi as this was more expensive.

Liked: Feels like a hotel and not like a hostel. I think the hostel was originally a hotel that was later transformed into a hostel. The common areas are somewhat impersonal. On the other hand, everything is clean and working fine. Nice breakfast too.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
