    The outdoor area was really nice to hang and easy to meet fellow travellers. The place is really close to all the restaurants and the beach but still a bit hidden which made it a bit more quiet.

    The location is perfect: close to the beach and the main road but not directly on the main road which makes it a lot more quiet. The rooms were nice and clean and the AC worked very well. Only 2 bathrooms but one was always free since the hostel...

    It’s such a lovely hangout spot, a minute from the Main Street. This makes it a quiet environment, and just a 2 minute walk from the beach.
