Zugangscode nicht eingetroffen Die angekündigte Email mit dem Code für den Hauptzugang ist nie eingetroffen. Auch auf meine Anfrage 1 Tag vor der Anreise gab es überhaupt keine Reaktion. So stand ich um 2 Uhr morgens vor der Tür und musste über ausgehängte Tel-nr. meinen Code und die Zimmernr. abfragen.

Overall quite happy eith the experience, but i never received an email with check in instructions prior to arrival, and with this being a completley remote check in, cause me to have to jump through some extra hoops to get my room. The property operator did answer the phone and sort it out quite quickly though!

Great stay We had a good stay at the hostel. It is a family (father and daughter) run hostel. Both were super friendly and had great tips and recommendations. They helped us to decide on best day and time for a whale watching tour and also arranged the booking for us. Kitchen was big and very clean. Just one information: only salt and sugar was available (no oil, pepper, etc) because they pay very big attention to keeping the kitchen clean and that no groceries from leaving people are still there. Room size was good for 2 people with 2 pcs of big luggage. Sufficient showers and toilets available.

The hostel exceeded all expectations. The room was well presented and clean. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were exceptional. Everything you could need and more. Check in was simple and code came through well in advance. Would definitely come back here again 😊
