15 January 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The staff is very friendly! We automatically felt like a family the second we got there! There is one main terrace/chill out room, which is the key to be able to meet people easily. Free internet access! And there was always good music playing!!! Its not a quiet place, so don't go there if you're looking to be secluded and relaxing.

Disliked: The mattresses need to be replaced. Very springy!! The shower upstairs would need a bit of renovation as well, but the ones downstairs are good.

Liked: The characters running the hostel

Disliked: Cleanliness was very very poor - mouldy mattress and pillow (and no pillow case provided to cover it!), dirty sheets, and limited availability of secure storage for valuables

10 October 2010

Liked: It was really cheap and close to the beach. The staff was nice.

Disliked: No intimacy in this hostel! It's like you're living with everyone else even if you have a private bedroom! The walls betweens the rooms don't go til the roof, so you can hear EVERYTHING in the other rooms. Plus, when we stayed in the hotel, they put really loud music til at list 3 AM.. Not very nice for those who want to wake up early to visit and to travel....
