Great place for a night or two of accommodation. It is within a pub so don’t expect super quiet until the pub closes. Great pizza in the pub or plenty of other dining options within walking distance.

This hotel is the bomb! Not for those looking for quiet but if you don't mind live music and general busyness and want cheap accommodation with basic but clean facilities in an area that has everything going on then I highly recommend this place. I loved my stay here and would happily stay again!

Wonderful property! The room was clean and the shared bathrooms look like they have been recently upgraded. The communal kitchen was well stocked and there is coffee and tea as well 😊 You can walk to all the tourist sights and beaches as well as cafes, restaurants and shopping. Every staff member I interacted with was SO nice, professional and helpful making for an amazing stay.
