We stayed here for a night with our children. The room was clean and comfortable, the kitchen and communal spaces were inviting and well set out. We didn’t swim in the pool because of our short stay, much to our kids dismay but it looked beautiful. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, beach and all for a very reasonable price. Would recommend. Would come back.

Stayed in deluxe room with own en-suite. Room was clean & comfortable. Ideal for my short-term stay (3 nights), albeit a little expensive for a hostel. Had to close bathroom door overnight as fan would stay on for some reason which was loud. Didn’t use the facilities on site but staff seemed friendly & overall the building was well maintained. Pool also looked clean but didn’t use it.

I stayed for a week and only once did someone come by and very quickly "cleaned." Its a beach town, it was sandy and dirty. The vent in the bathroom doesn't turn on and when someone showered it steamed the entire room. No bathrooms on my floor besides the one in my room, which was always in use. Only one mirror and hook and they also were both in the bathroom.

Convenient & walkable to shops & dining around the property. Staff were friendly. Room is clean & bed is comfy. It lacked a proper table, even a small one will suffice cos there's no space to place small stuff.

I had a private room, very modern bathroom and spacious. Bed was ok and couldn’t control temperature of the room so opened a window. I had a large spider crawl in and made its way to the ceiling so fly wire would be a good idea. I also got bitten by a mosquito so my last night there I didn’t sleep well because of the visiting insects.
