The picture shown of the property is not the property I stayed in. Very misleading!!! The property is not on the beach. It's in a residual/business area a couple of blocks from the waterfront. I chose a private room which I liked but it was above the outdoor dining area of the pub below so noisy & cigarette smoke until 11 p.m. I couldn't open my windows which was very uncomfortable since there's no air conditioning & my stay was in July. Staff was nice (men only). Breakfast was included-continential.

Great location, great staff, a good seaside stay!
Good location, friendly staff, a bit noisy, would benefit from sound proof insulation in the floor over the bar downstair. Since bed was not the most comfortable, don’t be afraid to ask for extra pillows. Staff was amazing!

L’auberge était correcte. Très petite cuisine et une chaleur extrême à l’intérieur (difficile de manger à l’intérieur). Belle cours arrière. Je ne m’entendais pas à rencontrer un chien sur le balcon avant de la propriété et qu’il est acces à l’intérieur (désagréable lorsqu’une personne à peur des chiens) j’aurai aimé qu’il l’indique sur le site.

Great hostel, can get loud
The hostel is clean. The staff are friendly. I got a room in the basement, right under the bar area. It was a bit loud at night when the bar is open, and when people walk on the floor above. But overall, great hostel.
