Nice atmosphere. Places to chill out and relax. Rooms are nice, adequate shower/ toilet facilities. Relatively close to the town centre about a 10minute walk away, but nice walk along sea front. Would stay here again, if came back.

  Customer Review 

To be honest i think this hostel is a bit overrated, i came from the dolphin lodge and i changed soon after 2 nights because the albatross had a greater rating. The environment is very good and they organise lots of things for the travelers but the accomodation like the beds and bathrooms are not very up to date. I stayed 1 night in a dormroom and 2 nights in a doubleroom. My dormroom was a room in another room and not inside the mainbuilding. The walls are made of paper because i heard everything from outside and matresses are not very comfortable. Doubleroom was a bit greater but stil you could hear anything from outside.

The staff were great, especially Joe helped with any inquiries I had. Made a really good impression even though I was only staying the one night :)
