Comfortable hostel

The host is extremely kind, helpful and respectful. I felt genuinely cared about during my stay and each day I was asked very politely if everything was going well and if I needed local information. He is also an excellent cook and made a special meal for everyone to celebrate a long term guest. The location couldn't be any easier from the port if you are travelling by ferry. It's also right next to the promenade and the main shops. Even the bus stops are only a short walk. There is a comfortable sofa to relax, a washing machine and an outdoor line to hangout wet clothes. My room even had a balcony with a view of the sea and across the bay.

Great stay

Got room with balcony and thru trees could see beach. Nice morning sun to enjoy coffee there. Owner Tomi seems to be around most of the day, if not cleaning, checking guests in he can be found out the front waiting for new guests. He is also the one who gets breakfast ready and is waiting for you when you get up. Great location as very close to port/ ferry and at start of boardwalk along beach front. Center of town is a short walk away including local and long distance buses.
