Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Close to harbour, and beach. Spacious room, even had a balcony and private bathroom. Rooms clean and bedding fresh. Kitchen facilities if required, group room with games. One house cat, though others appear at the back door at breakfast time. Sylvia helped with any problems such as ferry times. Extremely lovely welcome, quick response to messages. Lovely place to stay.
Negative: Odd area tired, but most money is put into the animal rescue charity.
Summary: Fantastic hostel.
