Nice property very well decorated in the location next to the Black Beach but not much else around it so you will need a car to go anywhere. The head bathroom when you have a shower however everything else was ace
Verified review

6/10 Good

Stayed in 4 bed double bed dormitory. Hostel itself was good just be aware of other people might not be respecting the quiet hours. People check in at mid-night and unpacking, keep moving luggage and open the light. Alarms and message notifications keep ring from 4am. Only barely got few hours sleep on and off.
