Room was very clean, location was hard to beat, 5-10 minute walk to anything and everything. We visited during a warm couple of days so the lack of air conditioning was a little tough but bearable.

Very warm inside the building and rooms, little airflow. Quite noisy at night. In a convenient area to the Latin Quarter - within walking distance to many pubs and stores.

Dorm apartments converted to hotel rooms for the summer made it possible for our young adult kids to have some privacy on vacation. Rooms were small but functional. Not fancy but a decent place to stay

Property appears to be a rental for the summer months. Its a school dormitory but very quiet and safe. Washer and dryer at location for small cost. Room was small but comfy for what we needed. Bathroom was inside the room.

Noisy seagulls were a bit of a drag but otherwise it was a decent place to stay! Also, we did ask them to change our bed sheets, but they just made the bed and left the same sheets. Otherwise though, staff was kind to us and we were able to sleep!

Budget friendly plush backpackers lodge

Stay was good, the room was a bit noisy and although the keycard worked on all doors required to get to my room, it didn’t work on the entry door, but overall it was an enjoyable place to stay and I will stay again.
