This is a great place if you’re looking for a place close to the train station, which was my main reason I picked the hostel. It takes a bit of time to get to the water side but not so bad to navigate. The staff that helped me upon check in was very nice and extremely helpful. The place is on the older side as far as facilities are concerned but still efficient enough. The entire property gives off an old villa vibes. Could use a couple more showers and toilets to share downstairs.
