4 Since 2004 things have really changed!!! The place is very friendly and the staff very helpful. To save money and have a good time go there. You'll enjoy the place, which is just a 10-minute walk to the city center. And if you are too lazy to move you could also tan in the large garden.

2 Quite a walk from town, owner was miserable & always stressed. Didnt like the atmosphere at all, there was a big fight over a theft on the first night of our stay. Wouldnt reccommend staying here, poorly run & unfriendly. You might aswell stay in one of the hostels in the centre - such as Base.
