+ Die Lage ist perfekt, direkter Zugang zum Strand mit Meer! Die Atmosphäre ist sehr entspannt und die Menschen hier sind sehr zuvorkommend und nett, wie eine Familie. Wir werden wieder kommen.

- Die Küche könnte größer sein!

+ Clean, comfortable, open, natural

- The staff were discriminatory and nasty. The manager was bias and did not allow me to stay as a paying customer because of the time i sleep on the beach behind the hostal when i didn’t have the money and still came inside to charge my phone the next day. I was not met with kindness or decency.

+ El ambiente.

- Muchas personas para los pocos servicios (duchas, baños, cocina,...) que ofrece el alojamiento habia que hacer cola para todo, y la limpieza no era suficiente.

+ The guy at the reception was nice and helpful

- Not my vibe. Not only dorms but so many tents a lot of people and not that many facilities. Felt more like a festival terrain then a hostel!
