This hostel was nice enough, but nothing great. A big part of that was the location. Although the beaches in the nearby area are amazing, it was incredibly difficult to get to this town without a car. There's no public transport at all. And once in town there seem to only be two places to eat and 1 store which was closed when I was there. So even getting water was a bit challenging because the tap water at the hostel was super salty and not really drinkable. The front desk staff were very nice but it was quite unorganized feeling and I didn't always know where to go or who to talk to. I got a private room and it was spacious and had a lovely balcony! It was also generally very clean. The shower could have been cleaner though. The room was also freezing (which I'm sure in summer would be amazing but I needed so many extra blankets to stay warm). This place was also quite loud. Any noise from downstairs echoed a lot and the music stayed on until pretty late. They also had a very strong smelling mosquito repellant plug in on the wall, which again maybe in summer would have been worth it, but the smell was overwhelming. It was a decent price for the size of room a balcony (this was off season in December, and it was 60 euro/night). I wouldn't say don't stay here, but I'm not raving about it. Side note: The bar right next to the hostel called La Torre was where I bought water and they had really cheap (5 euro) yummy sandwiches. I would recommend going there.
