Amazing experience! I loved the layout with all the separate buildings. Genuinely one of the nicest hostels in the hundreds I've been to by now. It is so nice to see a hostel with such clean spaces, and even porches where you can work on your laptop without having to be inside all the time. Really nice people here, too. So close to everything.

This is my first time ever staying at a Hostel and it was a great one! Beautiful bungalow style accommodations. Warm and welcoming staff. Fresh clean sheets and respectful roomies made the whole experience experience one I plan to repeat. Five minute walk to the beach and the pier. The weather was perfect for March.

Superbe auberge ! Cadre très mignon et chambre spacieuse. (!) Pas de rideaux sur tous les lits. On s’y sent « comme à la maison ». La cuisine est très sympa.

It was a lovely spot to stay for the night! I didn't have any staff interactions since I came late and left early, but the self check-in from 7p-10p was easy enough.

Very nice. I do wish there was more of a place to lounge there. No couches or comfy arm chairs but it was overall great, no complaints.

Alles was man für seinen Aufenthalt braucht. Es gibt jeden Tag Aktivitäten und die Zimmer, sowie das Bad waren super sauber. Einziges Manko, die Betten haben keine Vorhänge und die Spinde sind sehr klein.

The people and the place were way better than expected. I think it would be more secure to require the coded door to the common area 24/7. No big deal!

Lovely hostel, good facilities and a great location. Everything was clean and tidy and as a female solo traveller I felt safe. It was very quiet when I stayed so I ended up in the female only dorm on my own.

Nice atmosphere and very kind staff. Good facilities, and big shoutout to the keypads on the door locks. No need to carry (and lose) the key card :)

Enjoyed my stay, was very comfortable, very clean, met 2 nice lady around my age , which was in my 60-70’s, which was great to see, which I usually see young, so was a nice surprise, they were both here for work, likewise o was too. Only 2 blocks from boardwalk and pier to eat at some food eating places. There is bit of hill climb back tho if limited for walking. Will definitely be back
