Übernachten im Paradies

Eines der schönsten Hostels, in denen ich jemals übernachtet hatte. Die Lage ist zauberhaft: direkt an einem paradiesischen Strand und fußläufig von Restaurants und Cafés. Parken kann man kostenfrei auf der Straße. Von den nahegelegenen Felsen kann man sowohl einen zauberhaften Sonnenaufgang als auch -untergang bewundern. Einziges Manko in den Zimmern: es gibt keine abschließbaren Spinde und keine Vorhänge an den Betten.

Renate

Friendly staff, central location. Lots of thoughts in regards to environment and reduction of wastage. Problem is the late check in, considering that some people are returning from a 100km walk and are keen to have a shower and drop their bags.
