Guest reviews
Fabulous
Liked: The staff are very attentive and polite. Always there to help.
Disliked: Inside the room there are no stairs to climb if you are on the top bed. It is very hard.
Very nice staff and clean place to stay
Liked: Good location, quiet area so no trouble and easy to find the town / restaurants
The perfect week
Liked: The pool. The location. Hygiene. Quiet, even in August. The staff were the friendliest ever and so accommodating.
Disliked: Nothing!!
Basic but clean room for a short stay
Liked: Location is great as the entrance is out onto a courtyard with some bars and a small shop, the supermarket is less than 5 minute walk away. The staff are lovely. It’s a basic room but adequate as it’s described as a hostel. Very clean this couldn’t be faulted. Good kitchen facilities and a nice communal area with loads of books to choose from.
Disliked: Beds are very hard and wouldn’t worked for a longer stay. Late arriving guests were quite loud in reception and there was no effort to ask them to be quiet although there is quiet times indicated at reception. Some of the rooms back onto a courtyard with some bars in it so it can be quite noisy at night time. If you require anymore towels there is an added charge. There is an added charge of €4 for use of the sunbathes although access to use the pool is free.
Liked: Staff very sympathetic and helpful. I called early to drop off my luggage before check-in and, as the room was ready, they even checked me in earlier. I had an amazing stay; the place is very well organized and clean.
Disliked: The beds were a bit stiff...
