For me it was a little bit pricy as I’m travelling for a while! But for the area it’s pretty average- on the lower end for sure.

Very close to the beach and a great communal area so can meet other travellers. It’s basic and just what you need for a few nights stay and looking for a chilled vibe.

“Black Mold. Unwelcoming. Not clean.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Submitted from a mobile device
There was black mold in the dorm and bathroom. I have symptoms of exposure after just two nights. I am not the only one either. The atmosphere is really unwelcoming and I can't believe the difference between the reviews and what I experienced there. There was also no hot water. I was marked as a no show after I left so I couldn't leave a review and had to contact Booking.com because I was so concerned about the health implications of someone else staying there. I told the owner about the mold. He didn't seem concerned or surprised.
The location was good.
