    It has an amazing view and the hostel itself is very cute. It has a lot of spaces indoors and outdoor where you can hang out alone or with others.

    If you decide to visit this hostel than you wouldnt find something better. The staff is extremely helpful and they have clean sheets and a really clean bathroom. I have visited so many hostels but this one gets the credit for being one of the best ones. I SUGGEST TO GO THERE BEFORE THE SUNSET ❤️

    Breakfast has few options, pancakes with chocolate spread, jam and cheese spread, black coffee, and tea, I didn't find the common areas clean, especially the kitchen utensils, which were in poor condition The bathroom could have a support to hang the shower, we had a water shortage in the morning, I don't know if it happens often and the next day the toilet was leaking water, but anyway they were helpful in resolving the situation. The location is not central. You need to walk about 20 minutes to get to the tourist area.

    I liked the double room; it was clean and organized, the balcony has an exceptional view, the air conditioning works well, the mattress is very comfortable, and the room and bathroom are quite large. The staff is very friendly; Andreas is a sweetheart and always ready to help.

    The hostel has a spacious rooftop and a bar it is also very clean and safe. I came just for a day or two but stayed over one month. I love the sea view…also breakfast is wonderful and you can use kitchen ans even the BBQ; no additional fees for towels etc

    Not their fault, but Google Maps provided inaccurate directions, which led us to drive an extra 15 KM. If you go to this place, look for the host directions tip, which will avoid this.

    Our room was in the top floor. The highlight of this place was definitely the unforgettable view from the balcony. The host was an Italian guy called Andrey , who was very friendly. The room was very clean. There was a good restaurant just crossing the street.

    I recently spent 3 amazing nights at this hostel, and it honestly felt more like staying in a beautiful villa than a hostel. The place is spotless, with an awesome view that makes you want to stay there forever! What really made it special, though, were the hosts, Andrea and Ricardo. They’re not only super helpful but also hilarious and so welcoming, making everyone feel right at home. The WiFi was also excellent – perfect for streaming or working remotely. Highly recommended!

    Wasn’t a lot that was wrong with the place to be fair..

    Breakfast was little pancakes with jam, cheese or Nutella, coffee and mountain tea, it was good enough to start your day…
