The view the atmosphere the vibe

Stayed in August 2025

there are too many long-term guests who treat the place like their own home. They often play loud music without consideration for others and dominate shared spaces like the kitchen for extended periods. This creates an unwelcoming atmosphere for short-term travelers who are just passing through.

Great location — very close to the grocery store and the beach. The room was spacious enough to fully open a large suitcase with no problem. Really appreciated the extra space and convenience.

Mattress sunk in the middle, could use bed frames to add privacy curtains for a little upgrade. Weird smells upstairs at times. Not really a traveler vibe, felt more like people living there long term, which makes sense with the backpacker jobs in the area. Really disappointed with the bathrooms; one combined shower/toilet on the ground floor, one unisex s/t upstairs, and one toilet and 2 showers with a sink. The shower stalls had doors but the bathroom entrance itself did not and was unisex, which made me uncomfortable as a woman. The unisex shower/toilet was usually occupied in the evenings whenever I got ready to shower, and could be occupied by someone just using the toilet, not even the shower. They have been upgraded but more women only options would be nice. (My dorm room was women only, at least.)

Ample free street parking, walkable location. Well supplied kitchen. Just enough space in the pantry and fridge. Each bed has its own storage, light, and power outlet.

The bedrooms didn't have anywhere to lock up your belongings, and the beds weren't suuuuper comfortable, but it did the job

It was quite cheap and I booked pretty last minute! It is located right on the boardwalk, and it is around 20 minutes walking to the town center which is nice.

It's few shared bathrooms in the lodge. But it doesn't cause big problem for me.

In front of the lodge was the beautiful sea view. I love it so muchhhh. Can see the sunrise from the window.

Nothing. Was good for a short stay.

Location was excellent. Comfortable and kitchen was good. Would stay again perhaps for one night rather than two.

Basically staying in someone’s house and it felt a little unsafe as a solo females traveller

Nice location and all in all the basics of what you need as a traveller. Also the bedroom door had a great lock.

I didn’t have breakfast there

Only the carpet could use some cleaning.

I was positively surprised. You get really good accommodation for the price. From the balcony you can see the sea, which is just across the street and at night I could hear the waves. The beds are comfortable and clean, as are the bathrooms and toilets, as well as the kitchen. The owners were very nice. I had asked for a room with mostly women because I was traveling alone and this was immediately accommodated.

Nothing really - it was what it said it was.... and it did really well.

Friendly staff, clean place, positive vibe. Great kitchen facilities

The kitchen was a bit grim but that's the fault of the other residents and occupiers. Not the staff

The location, the staff and the room itself

Stayed in March 2024

The location was quite a way out of town, about 20 minutes walk to the main high street. The upper bunk beds sank in the middle, and generally weren't very comfortable. There wasn't much space to prepare or eat food, relative to the number of guests. The WiFi signal was very weak, especially in the bedrooms. The rooms were uncomfortably hot. The whole place seemed a bit shabby with wallpaper hanging of the walls, tatty carpets, etc.

It was very cheap. It had nice sea views, and you could be on the seaside promenade in a minute, you just needed to cross one road.

The bathrooms are not really the best ones, and the kitchen equipment could be better.

The owners were really great people.

It is close to rhe aquarium and just in front of the sea.

Stayed in February 2024

No hand towels in the bathrooms and no freezer. Otherwise all good!

Cheap price, friendly staff, female dorm, kitchen well equipped, shower and bathrooms good. Great view of the sunrise and beach! Not far to city centre (15 min walk).
