Friendly atmosphere but unreliable free tours organised by the hostel. I booked a tour 3 days in advance with them and they cancelled my trip on the day because my friends and I were not ready in the lobby at 9.30am but we were there at 9.33am instead. Ridiculous excuse. As apologies, they booked me for another trip and 11.30am instead and they were 15min late for the departure. No apologies from their end as they didn’t care at all to ruin my day

Room was quite dingy, staff lovely, kitchen facilities good. Clean sheets which was nice. Not bad over all double room was a little expensive for what we got.

Good sociable hostel
Good hostel with good atmosphere and service and common areas. Could be a little cleaner though, the kitchen was pretty nasty and full of flies.

Staff extremely friendly and I enjoyed the free trips that they provide if you stay over two nights. Convenient location for walking to the shops, marina or buses to and from the airport. Good amount of communal space to chill.
