Very small and basic, holes in the mosquito net, no soap in the bathroom, couldn’t flush the toilets, breakfast was nice, friendly staff. You leave a deposit when you check in, in case u lose the key. Nowhere to park. Short walk to the beach. Free cold water. Was okey but wouldn’t really recommend.

Purtroppo siamo rimaste solo due notti. L' hostal si trova nel pueblo a 5 minuti dalle due spiaggie più belle. Le camere sono come nelle foto. Il ragazzo che lavora nell' hostal è stato super ospitale, accogliente, sorridente, parla 5 lingue e ha sempre risposto ai nostri bisogni. Bella energia, movimento e allegria.
