Liked: LOCATION, that's it.

Disliked: loud music until 1 p.m. every night and loud chit-chating downstairs until 4 p.m. every night. dirty in the room. no service at all from the staff. THIS PLACE MAKES ME HEADACHE!

Disliked: hygıene and the whole place need maıntanance bıg tımeee

15 September 2011

Liked: It was cheap

Disliked: Situated above an English bar this place was quite dirty however not without some charms. The people I met were quite fun and the staff were alright though a friend did get his wallet stolen in the night and the music didn't stop from downstairs till about 4. Good place if your out to party like it's Marbella in 1989 (which isn't a bad thing) not so much if your looking to just relax and unwind.

08 September 2011

Liked: a lot of nice people

Disliked: that those who were responsible for the hostel were really chaotic people. i booked a bed for 3 nights and they kicked me out after one night, only because they got other reservations. also as they were drunk every night there was no breakfast. also i am used that you can eat and drink your own food and drinks in a hostel, but in this one they didn`t allow it.

Liked: NOTHING.. seriously this place is a total dive.. do not stay here.. there are much nice pensions just around the corner which are much better value for money..

Disliked: The guys running it are rude and couldnt care less about you.. they too interested in drinking and hanging out in the bar down stairs than running a business.. They are the rudest most arrogant guys i think i've met!!!!!!!!!!

Liked: Looking at things literally, the lack of lockers, the fact that we were sleeping on the roof, the way the sheets were cleaned, and more ould put the whole clean/safe rating a little lower. However, in all actuality, if you come in with the mindset of a backpacker you're going to love this place. If you think you're going to get a hotel quality, you'll be disappointed, but as long as you aren't expecting anything, this place is great. The lack of things working or not having any water available to take a shower actually makes it that much more comical. As far as the safeness, even though things were left unlocked and out in the open, I still felt like it was safe. Must have been the people. The people running the place were amazing,

Liked: Good Location; the attached bar is convenient.

Disliked: The hostel booked a 5 and a 4 bed room to us, instead placed us in a 7 bed room. Additionally, there was no water for showers, the toilets did not work, and the hostel (overall) was extremely loud and dirty.

23 July 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Price, location and the bar in the first floor.

Disliked: We were in the twin bed room ensuite but the bathroom is not private. Have to share with another private double bed room. And the reception is not in the second floor. You should go to the bar of the first floor! There was a huge huge cockroachi at the bar. Be careful, otherwise it will get in your bag.

22 July 2011

Liked: the location

Disliked: Pretty much everything- the showers and toilets stank and weren't cleaned and the music from the bar downstairs was way too loud everynight

13 July 2011

Liked: The location is good.

Disliked: You get what you pay for with this place. The rooms and bathrooms are dirty and noisy. During our stay there one of the staff offered to book ferry tickets for us. Two days later, when we were due to go, he told us that there wasn't a ferry running on that day - he made no effort to find us a day earlier to tell us. We then had to wait around for our money before making other arrangements that put our trip back a day and cost us a night's deposit at another hotel.

Liked: The Staff was perfect!! Thanks to Memeth for everything, really helpfull and always happy to see us. The location is perfect, close to everything. Really worth it!

Disliked: Rooms really need to get more cleaned, and the dırectıons they gıve to get to the hostel on hostelbookers are the worst. We got lost for sooo long.

05 June 2011

Liked: Decent location. Walking distance to marina, bus station and main street.

Disliked: The twin ensuite was actually a shared bathroom. Business was conducted from the bar, which is fine but it did not come across very professional. We werent sure who was staff, and who were just people at the bar. Breakfast was only for 1 hour, 9-10, which seems like they were trying to avoid serving breakfast to those catching ferries. Music from the bar in the evenings reached all the way to the top floor.
