Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

breezy rooftop with a view.

Stayed here while we got scuba certified in town. This is a really relaxing hostel, with a breezy covered rooftop with a view of the ocean. 4 blocks up the hill, worth the walk for getting to eat at places other than on the beach strip, and we were there on the hottest month.
