Nice hostel close to the beach. We arrived late and left early, but it seemed cozy enough to hang around. Super spacious kitchen, so even when crowded, no one was in each other's way. It had everything you might need - except breakfast bowls

+ Good parking for the guests; + A lot of instructions for check-in with all the important information; + The hostel has its kitchen accessible for the guests, but the owners also informed about the possibility of having dinner and booking breakfast (it was delicious) in the partner hotel.

“Nice stopover”
Spacious common area, clean toilets. When we were there, there were only 2 other rooms occupied so we basically had the place to ourselves.

“Nice clean hostel”
For a hostel it is very clean. Kitchen has everything you need, even a dishwasher. Common area also very nice. Bathrooms have to be shared, but in the right wing you have 3 of them. As there is a sink in each room this is quite comfy. We did have to queue. Only stayed there for a day. Price is unbeatable in this area.

The location is strategic, in a area where it is not so easy to find cheap accomodation during the high season. The common area is large.

“Great stay while driving to the east”
Keys are collected at the hotel just around the corner from the hostel till quite late hour. Common spaces are really tried to keep clean, that can be seen. Fully equipped kitchen. Location is a very nice city.
