A basic hostel which does the job. Good location for the beach and the old town.

This hostel is awful. No common area, only bar stools on which to eat food in the kitchen. The only other seating is your bed, which is far too small. I'm only 5'6 and my feet were hanging off the end. Beds are disgustingly unclean with yellow, stained sheets and foul smelling duvets. Showers fluctuate between hot and cold, so virtually impossible to use. No enclosed space to change in the bathroom - you step out the shower door and you can see the street and reception desk. Horrible. Room was very cold too, although they did give me another blanket. No plugs or lights by the beds or any other nice touches often found in hostels. The man on reception also played dance music loudly 24/7 so impossible to relax. The only good thing this place has is location, with it being close to the bus and train station.

I had 3 nights in the hostel. From the out side it looks lovely but no. Next to a very busy rode, so traffic noise all night. Windows dont open for fresh air. Bathrooms only cleaned once a day, should be twice and rubbish under the beds. My mattress and pillow where in need of replacing, but so were all the bunk beds. not enough room for all the peoples gear. I also thought I had booked a female 4 bed dorm, it was not! And its all way too expensive €33 per night, nothing included!
