    It is a hostel, so be mindful about the category of this place. But if you are aware of it, the stay should be fine. Especially the location.

    Even if it is an hostel, we got a private pod for two people

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Great location. It was great that the bunk beds were split into sort of ‘rooms’ with curtains for privacy. There were a couple of plugs per space and a night table with a lamp. The toilets and showers were very clean and well kept. The shared kitchen and living room was cozy. There was a toilet and a shower outside the rooms, so you have to go outside and around the building to make it to the loo. It is a pretty small space overall.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Good rooms, quite spacious for a hostel. Bathrooms/shower were good. Well stocked kitchen. Exceptional views, close to beach Road in and out is a bit tricky and takes 10-15 min to reach/leave

    Beautiful location, great kitchen set up, comfy beds and bedding. That I hadn’t booked a second night!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    James was super friendly and knowledgeable about the location! Lovely atmosphere there and the pet sheep were so cute. We stayed in a share room but each bunkbed had a curtain so felt private

    Location beautiful, staff cheerful and kind. Bathroom fine. Beds comfortable. A drying a room would have been nice as we got soaked.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Honestly, one of the cutest hostels I've ever stayed at ! The facilities are small, cozy and quite clean. The room we stayed in was divided into curtained alcoves containing two beds each, meaning my friend and I could have a little privacy and it almost felt like an individual room. I highly recommend ! Nothing at all.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great location near beach…such a beautiful sunset. Lounge/kitchen area was very welcoming….nice fire going. Kitchen was spotless and well supplied with pots/utensils etc. We were two older couples in a quadruple room with our own toilet and hand basin. There was a shared shower not far from our room. The beds were warm and comfortable. Nothing
