Overall it was fine. The sand from the "makeshift" beach outside does get into the rooms because everyone walks around barefoot, the hot showers are around the corner behind the pool, reception service is pretty slow since they're a new hostel. However, if you're a little patient and flexible, this place has a great social and chill vibe. Close enough to Pub Street but not so close that it's loud, even the hostel's music gets turned down about midnight. All in all, would stay here again.
