2.0 star property
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (1)
"The hostel is very close (a few minutes on foot) to the beach and to the town centre (important: for the town centre go the opposite way from the way to the beach:) You will get there in a few minutes on foot rather than half an hour or so going in a long circle - as I did with my kids! - the other way). The rooms are very secure with their own individual code to press on a panel. The owners are friendly and discreet and they leave you alone. The rooms are clean and comfortable, if a bit basic...

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (78)
"The property is very well located to the beach, town, bus and train station. The house is clean and very comfortable with so many extras like toys and beach items (buckets, spades, crabbing stuff, kites etc) which was a lovely surprise as I packed light! We had great communication from the host and all the house was full of really useful information about surrounding walks and attractions. As a family with young children we found this the perfect place to stay and wouldn’t hesitate to book again"
