What a lovely, friendly place to stay. Clean, comfy, with a homely feel. Was a nice breakfast for 5€,with freshly baked break, cheese, meats, pate, jams, etc. Cornflakes, yoghurt and fresh fruit. Eaten outside next to a, small pool in a pleasant garden. Excellent price. Would come again. In fact we stayed an extra night. Basic but good, well equipt room.

Spanish accommodation with a very warm welcome.

Absolutely fantastic service. The guy on reception was warm and friendly. He really tried to speak English but that was not such a problem as we both could speak a little of each others languages. Cheep and cherful accommodation in very Spanish style. I would definitely stay again if im passing.

Nice stay

Loved it! The staff is so nice, very helpful. The place very clean and convenient location. The cab driver had a very difficult time finding the hostel but once he found it, everything was great. Can't beat the price either.

Small nice hotel close to the beach

Great location next to beach. Not very close to city centre though. Comfortable beds. Very small pool but beach is a two minute walk away. Hotel offers a brekkie for 6 euro but we opted for a breakfast at Carrefour for half that price. Friendly and helpful staff.
