    The hostel had a great location close to the beach and the strip. the breakfast prepared by Fatima's son was exceptional. the hostel provided good value for money and the hosts were welcoming and lovely. the individual rooms in the separate house offered privacy.

    Felt immediately at home, no reason to complain.

    This hotel is located in the center of the city, making it convenient to explore all the nearby attractions and nightlife. The rooms are well-maintained and have a bathroom inside, providing guests with privacy and comfort. One of the highlights is the lovely terrace on the top floor, offering a beautiful view of the surroundings. Additionally, the breakfast at the café downstairs is highly recommended, with a good selection of options to start your day.

    Everything was great, no complaints!

    I had a great stay at this hotel. The value for money was excellent, with affordable prices for a room in the city center. The attention to detail was impressive, especially the rooms with a view next to the lovely terrace. The basic amenities were provided, including a bathroom inside the room. Additionally, the breakfast served was delicious.

    All was perfect!

    We enjoyed thrilling hikes along the stunning cliffs and picturesque beaches. The kids absolutely loved discovering hidden coves and splashing in the crystal-clear waters. The variety of activities available, from snorkeling to boat tours, ensured endless fun for the whole family. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

    For dads, it would be great if the hostel provided a playground or outdoor area where children could play and burn off some energy.

The location was perfect, right in the heart of the action, making it easy to explore the city and enjoy the nearby beaches. Additionally, the breakfast provided was delicious and a great start to the day.

    Nothing to improve, all was more than satisfactory.

    Great location close to the beach and the main area with lots of restaurants and shops. Overall cleanliness was good and the staff was friendly and accommodating.

    The dorm room lacked privacy due to the lack of curtains, and the bathrooms and shower area were quite small and inconveniently located. Additionally, the hostel lacked a common area for guests to socialize or participate in activities.

    The location of this hostel was perfect, right in the center where everything is happening. It was very close to the main old town area and just a few minutes from the beach. the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the area.

    The noise at night was pretty bad, making it difficult to sleep.

    The location is perfect for a romantic escape, as it is located right in the centre and surrounded by amazing bars, shops, and restaurants. the facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the views from the balcony were breathtaking. the kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to prepare simple meals for two.

    The bunk beds were a bit too close together, and it was difficult to get a good night's sleep with other people snoring or moving around. the noise from the streets could also be heard in the room, which made it hard to relax after a long day of exploring.

    This hostel is an absolute gem! The location is perfect - close to the beach and city center, but just the right distance away. The cleanliness of the ensuite bathrooms and the entire hostel is outstanding. The free Wi-Fi in the rooms is a great bonus. The kitchen is well-equipped and the rooftop terrace is a jaw-dropping spot to relax. The staff, including the amazing Fatima, are super friendly and helpful. I've stayed here before and will definitely be back!

    During my stay in this hotel, I absolutely loved the central location which was just a few minutes' walk from the beach, restaurants, and shops. The facilities were clean and well maintained, while the staff were always helpful and friendly. I also appreciated the hotel's strong wifi signal, and the convenience of having a fully equipped kitchen with two fridges, stove top, microwave, and a kettle.

    Nothing.

    This hostel exceeded all my expectations! The location was mind-blowing, tucked away in a quiet side street yet still in the city center. The lack of noise was jaw-dropping, unlike my friends who complained about constant disruptions in the Old Town. The cleanliness and care put into the hostel was superb, and the wifi connection was super strong. The highlight was definitely the large, clean kitchen with all the amenities you could need. Plus, only a 5-minute walk to the beach! The staff were really friendly and helpful too. Highly recommend it!

    I got great value for my money at Rich & Poor Hostel. The room was fantastic with a private bathroom and a balcony with a perfect view. The location was superb, with local buses and two beaches just a short walk away. The staff was kind, helpful, and kept the hostel clean.

    The breakfast option could be improved, maybe by offering more variety.
