Un peu déçu de cette auberge, très peu social car aucun lieu commun disponible, piscine partagé avec un autre hôtel et aucun transat pour s'installer au bord de la piscine. En comparant les prix des activités et services proposés c'est un peu plus cher qu'ailleurs. Dortoirs simples, propreté ok. Le seul plus est lebalcon

This hostel is cheap and includes free breakfast. That being said, I booked 3 nights and left after 1. I booked an 8 bed dorm but there were 10 beds crammed into the room with only a thin curtain/tarp separating what were practically attached beds. The beds themselves were extremely creaky and unstable, they were so noisy that you couldn’t move without the dorm hearing about it, the pillows were lumpy and flat. We told the staff and they said they’d give us a refund if we left a good review.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The location is great and easy to get around, and the atmosphere is super friendly and relaxed. The staff were helpful and the place was clean and comfortable. The rooms have balconies with amazing views. It’s a nice spot to meet other travelers and feel at home while traveling. Highly recommended!

For £5 a night this hostel was fine however we did have some issues. We booked a 8 person dorm but were in a 20 bed room that connected into another 20 bed room and only had 1 toilet/shower. The toilet and shower are in the same room so only 1 person can use both and the toilet gets soaked whenever someone showers. Breakfast was available but it was pretty miserable and rubbish if you’re veggie. You can book tours which is good. The hostel give free beers for good reviews so don’t trust the...

It’s cheap here but you can get similar priced accommodation in the area that isn’t so bad. We got taken to a 20 bed dorm when we’d booked 3 beds in a 6 bed room and got moved to an empty 10 bed after complaining. The bedding in our room was really dirty and stained, and I found fleas in my bed. The aircon was broken and the window onto the balcony was broken so didn’t feel secure. We checked out 2 days early. They offer free beer in exchange for positive reviews which is a red flag...

They give you a free beer or discounted extended stay if you leave a good review which is kind of telling. We were in a bungalow and it was pretty grim - they moved us to a different room which was better. We had 3 different towels during our stay, all of them were filthy, one of them was just a fleece blanket. There were ants everywhere and our stuff on the balcony nearly got nicked by 2 baby monkeys so watch out for that. The main guy at reception was nice though.

Nice enough for the price, and the balconies in the rooms are nice. The beds aren’t great and breakfast isn’t the best. Not very social
