"Hostel features brightly painted dorms, a fully equipped kitchen with new appliances and a cosy lounge that's wallpapered with maps. It has a great social atmosphere and is a fun place to stay. Prices are really cheap also.
First of all for the person who didn't like staying there, it is a backpackers not a 5 star hotel. In most backpackers, you empty your own rubbish and I don't know of any other backpackers around the world that clean the rooms everyday and I have stayed in quite a few backpackers. The communal areas are cleaned everyday and in the kitchen all cloths are replaced everyday.
Theres a surf board lock up room and a common room with surf movies and many a late night party.
Wouldn't hesitate to stay again and fully recommend to anyone going that way to stay there, it is so handy to everything, beaches, shopping and especially pubs.
Trish the landlady is really friendly and was also really understanding when we pulled the sink of the wall in our bathroom!! (Just don't sit in the sink when your drunk or it will cost you £80 emergency plumber fee!)"
Was this recommendation useful?
