If you’re wanting to get some rest, this ain’t the place to go. Not to sound as if it was horrible, I just wanted to somewhere where I could rest.. Although my stay was great, there was three nights where people were in the courtyard until 1/2/3 am . Which is cool on a weekend but weeknights they need to change some rules. . The girls at reception were absolutely beautiful human beings and really listened to my words when it came to the noise. so the last night I got in 6 hours which was more then I’d had over the past two.. My room was great for the price, it’s a little cold , so I’d ask for an extra blanket. You have to leave ID and a deposit to use their pots n pans, which was unusual.. It’s definitely a place to he if you’re up for fun, drinking and good vibes..

Cheap and Central. Hard to complain. Some staff are a bit disinterested in their job but the vast majority are upbeat and positive. Should be noted that the recycling could be better labeled and there's no shower gel provided. At the end of the day, it's a cheap backpackers hostel 5 mins from the beech and I genuinely can't complain tbh. I enjoyed my stay.

Nice hostel, has a pool and cafe which is cool, my WiFi didn’t work. And with one fan in the room it made it super hard to sleep, but staff were nice.

The beds were extremely uncomfortable. The area was often unclean. There are people walking in and out of the room throughout the evening; it was extremely hard to sleep well. The bathroom and shower area has a lot of grime; evidently have not been cleaned in a long time.

Solo stay

In overall I was happy with my stay. It's close to the beach, shops etc. I haven't given 5 stars just because where I was staying it was super noisy. I had a room on my own facing towards the cafe/reception area so it felt like I was hearing everything. Also the walkway outside my window had a sensor light on which was a bit uncomfortable when it was going on and off quite a bit. I was able to leave my bag for a bit after checking out which was super handy. There are upkeep works going which is great to see. No need to pay for a shuttle, the public transport works great. Look it up ;-)
