Very rarely were the staff at the desk so ended up calling to phone to see if they’d appear which is when they’d promptly get of the couch they where chilling on to actually help me. There are also no rules in place such as no talking/lights off after a certain time, people would be chatting loudly in the dorms and turning lights on past 11 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Surfer Jan 2, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was dirty .the guy was friendly but the passion was terrible. ##### Surfer Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Sep 22, 2018 Liked: Staff & service The staff at the hostel were really polite and very helpful. The issue is that there were too many people living in the hostel long term that keep the room a mess, there are storage lockers that short term guests can't use as the long term people use them as wardrobes, and the long term girls in my room went out of their way to make me feel uncomfortable, complaining to each other whenever I entered the room that short term guests shouldn't be allowed to stay in the hostel and that I should be made to leave. It was more like a cheap shared house for them rather than a social hostel for anyone to stay at, so if you're staying long term then this would be great but if not then don't bother. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alice, Toulon Nov 27, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Personnel accueillant et gentil. La cuisine est ouverte en permanence, ce qui est un excellent point en leur faveur. Malheureusement on ne force personne à faire la vaisselle, aussi faut-il souvent attendre que les employés viennent tout nettoyer. . les rangements pour les courses sont insuffisants, il faut patager lrs bacs avec quelqu'un sur place. Néanmoins l'ambiance y est très agréable, avec de la bonne musique pour tout le monde le soir. Seul hic : si le linge de lit est propre, les chambres ne le sont pas. De plus, les douches sont trop peu régulièrement nettoyées avec peu de tapis de sol pour vraiment espérer avoir les pieds propres avant de se coucher ... les éponger sur la moquette de la chambre pour ne pas en mettre dans son lit, cest un peu moyen. Le tenancier est néanmoins fort agréable, et le personnel toujours souriant. Les livres et renseignements touristiques à l'entrée sont de qualité par rapport aux autres auberges, et j'ai pu découvrir quantité de choses agréables grâce à leur sélection pointue. J'y repasserai... mais en transit :) ##### Alice Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Louise, Melbourne Aug 24, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Friendly and homely place to stay Small and friendly place to stay. Owner was very helpful. ##### Louise Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Tara, Australia Apr 15, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not what expected Location was great however rooms were nothing like pictured. The other guests were loud way into early morning. Beds were very unstable and made lots of noise ate slightest movement. Many of the other guests in the dormitory left the door open/unlocked and I feared that some of my items could be stolen with the carelessness. It was an okay place since I only was there to sleep but I would not reccomend to any of my friends. ##### Tara ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen Feb 27, 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### When in Rome....

The bathroom and shower looked clean, but no spare toilet paper. The dorm was well aired, and the kitchen was kept clean by the worker on reception shift. A helpful, friendly bunch, helped make my stay there enjoyable. ##### Sue ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 15, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Shoooo Good place but a lot of long term guests.
