10/10 Exceptional

Can’t recommend this hostel enough… almost felt like home away from home. Beautiful clean and such a friendly place to spend few days.. loved the restaurant and all the food options. Chef Saad is very passionate about his cooking. The tours offered here are all amazing… great way to break ice. The location is unbeatable… walk down 2 min and you are on the beach!!!absolutely loved this place! My first hostel experience and I was told that they set the bar really high. So if available don’t wait a sec… book it!

6/10 Good

La chambre est spacieuse et agréable, mais il manque quelques équipements pratiques pour ranger ses affaires. La salle de bain pourrait également être mieux aménagée : un petit pot ou support pour poser les brosses à dents serait appréciable. Enfin, une seule serviette est fournie ; il serait préférable d’en avoir une deuxième, notamment pour le visage. Le personnel est très aimable, attentionné et disponible. Un grand merci à Jojo pour son accueil chaleureux et son aide à chaque besoin ou question. Une personne vraiment très serviable et agréable ! L’ambiance du lieu est très agréable et conviviale. L’établissement propose de nombreuses activités ainsi que des soirées, ce qui permet de profiter pleinement du séjour.
