I had a booking for this hotel next month, but needed to move my holiday because I'm unable to travel due to ill health. It was a non refundable booking so I very politely emailed to ask if there was anything they could do to move the booking back 4 months. I received a very unfriendly reply to say no. I replied, explaining further, and telling him that if he could be flexible I would be needing 3 more nights accommodation on my return journey. I did add that the other hotels I had booked with had been more flexible as I imagine they are keen to replace lost business after the pandemic. His reply was unbelievably rude. He even said I was 'turning my rage' on him - so very far from the truth. Needless to say I will be losing my money and booking elsewhere. If that is how a customer is treated on email I can't imagine how bad the service is in the hotel :-(

incredibly rude

The hostel is above a very busy bar, I cannot comment on the noise level during the week, however, the bar is a full blown night club on Friday and Saturday nights. Our room was on the second floor and the noise from the bar was amazing, the bar is open until 1.30am on Friday's and 5am on Saturday's so we got hardly any sleep. The hostel is advertised as having a car park, it does not, the main car park is 200 metres away on the beach and cost 10euro per day to park. If you want breakfast it is 8.5 euro, and frankly, a cup of coffee, two slices of bread, one tiny egg per person, and six slices of cheese and ham between three people certainly does not warrant the extortionate price of 8.5 euro per person. We had a 5 bedroom room booked for the three of us, this was confirmed at the time of booking the room, on arrival I was told I had only booked for 2 people. Once the management agreed we had booked for three people I was charged an additional fee for the room as the management stated that they charged more for three people in a five-bedroom. The room was clean, small for five people, and very basic.

Avoid This Hostel.

To be clear I created a trip advisor account purely to complain about this Hostel, that's how annoyed I was!

My partner and I booked this hostel despite mixed reviews because for a single night I'm willing to tolerate something rough round the edges if the price is right.

We arrived outside the hostel of which wasn't advertised and out of luck asked behind the bar of a local pub to find out the hostel was located above.

Upon entering the room I noticed the noise from the bar was still very loud, enough to keep the heaviest of sleepers awake. I also noticed that the bed was laid with both down/feather pillows and duvet.

I have an extremely serious feather bedding allergy coupled with asthma which has on more than one occasion caused me to require an ambulance and oxygen support. 

The first thing I did was to go and speak to the gentleman behind the bar about this issue, he informed me that no extra/spare bedding was kept there and that I'd have to stick with it. This wasn't an option and I didn't plan on putting MY ACTUAL LIFE on the line, so I asked for a refund. I was told that refunds weren't possible and that I'd have to go through the booking agent (booking.com)

I phoned booking.com and explained the situation, they got in touch with the owner and then called me back. I was told that the owner was rude to the booking agent and that my allergies weren't his problem! He also stated that I should have mentioned the allergies when initially booking but there was no comments box or avenue to do this.

I wasn't even offered a partial refund, despite only paying for the room less than an hour earlier. I have never in my life been to a hotel/hostel that didn't offer synthetic bedding as an alternative for people with serious allergies like myself (300+ hotels)

As much as I hate to slate the place I will NEVER be returning and I urge anybody thinking of winging it to NOT BOTHER!
Maybe the owner will eventually take some notice when his business starts to suffer because of his attitude

Shocking service!!!!

Partner booked and didn't check the small print advising it was lively.  Guy who checked us in seen we had 4 small children and just took our money.  Bar opens until late and will keep you awake.  The washing facilities are dirty.
Someone drunk tried to get in our room at 2am

Poor

The hostel is located a few minutes' walk away from the beach, the location is great.  There are restaurants, a bar on the bottom level of the hostel and public transportation nearby.  The room was basic and clean. Be aware there are no elevators and three floors worth of rooms which can make it challenging if you have a big or heavy bag with you.

Great location, comfortable and affordable.

Not much to say about this place except that everything was fine. I was a bit worried about the noise from the bar down stairs as we were staying on a Saturday night. It was fine though because our room was on the top floor and I stayed up quite late anyway. Didn't have time to have breakfast because I was in a rush but its nice that it was included.
