What the reviews say
- While the hostel markets itself as social, breaking into existing friend groups proved challenging for newcomers.
- The beds are uncomfortably firm and bathroom facilities are quite basic.
- Late-night music from the bar is loud enough to shake the rooms, disrupting sleep.
- Music from the bar plays until very late and is loud enough to make the rooms shake, so expect disturbed sleep on nights with events.
- Beds are described as rock solid, and toilets and showers are basic facilities.
- While the hostel has a social atmosphere with a pool and bar area, existing guest groups can be difficult to break into.
- Close to restaurants and 7-Elevens but located far from the main parts of the island.
- Features a swimming pool which appears to be the main draw of the property.
