Join this hostel only if you are French

The location is good. It is close to a local grocery store and the beach.

This place is filled with French and their culture is not welcomed by everyone. Hygiene is poor and facilities in the room is not sufficient comparing with other hostels at similar price.

They have faked reviews!

Close to grocery store.

Do NOT stay here unless you have to. The only reason this place has a good rating is because of faked reviews, left by the same persons. The pictures look very nice but it does not look like that any more! Firstly, the place is very run down and there is junk just laying around. Most people staying here are there long term, thus their personal stuff is scattered everywhere. I stayed in a 4-bed dorm where the guy staying long term had overtaken the room, stuff and dirty laundry everywhere. Literally had to wade through stuff to get to my bed. Not acceptable when sharing the room with others. The kitchen is disgusting, people leave dishes and do not clean up after themselves. Impossible to even find a coffee cup. The wifi does not work, at all. The ladies bathroom had an awful smell of sewers during my entire stay. They did not seem to get cleaned daily either. Very dirty. Our room was positioned just outside the long terms stayers hang out spot, which meant that it was loud and noisy until late at night. No "quiet-time" was in place. Finally, the receptionist was incredibly rude and cared more about hanging out with his buddies than welcoming us to the place. Did not tell us anything except for where our room was and then went back to drinking with his friends. When I asked about alternatives (since I was not keen in staying in the room where someone's personal stuff was everywhere) he was barely responsive.

The fact that I was told there were 6 bed dorm and they’ve squeezed an extra bed in there making it not what they have advertised I also contacted them about this with no response

All in all, apart from the door & the lack of wifi I would recommend this stay as a solo traveller. The atmosphere w

I liked that there were plenty of facilities to use. The kitchen was great, really spacious. The female dorm rooms themselves were in good condition and plenty of room to move around without feeling on top of one another. Really great to meet other solo travellers.

I was disappointed that I was told to download the GOKI app and to discover that the door’s coding system wasn’t working. This therefore made the stay slightly uncomfortable because of the security of the room. It took several days for this to get fixed too. The wifi service wasn’t great either- unfortunately was unable to connect at any point. Slight inconvenience if you’re relying on wifi for your visit as a solo traveller.

Cute hostel but more long stays than travellers on the go

Very clean and cosy little hostel. Comfy bed. Free parking. Facilities are good.

Lots of people staying long term, so not the best place to socialise and meet other travellers. The atmosphere is more one of a big flatshare than a hostel. Fun if you want to work in the area and stay longer, not so much if you're only there for a couple of nights. No designated smoking area, so people smoke wherever (although my room wasn't impacted)
