First time in a youth hostel (Not being much of a youth these days -) and chose it as there was no availability in other local hotels. However I was very impressed with the setup. Its basic of course but everything very clean and well maintained, friendly and helpful staff (although bear in mind reception hours!), good location 5 or 10 minutes from high street and beach and well thought-out covid precautions, with the (usually shared) bathrooms being dedicated to specific rooms etc.
