2/10 Poor

Don't stay here.
Very bad. Do not stay here if you have other options. I paid ten euros for a locker key deposit, and in the morning nobody would give it back. One person said he couldn't get the money, then they told me that the girl who could get me the money was asleep and wouldn't get up. Now I'm out ten euros.

Nothing fancy, but gets the job done
I had booked an 8 person room but got stuck in the large dorm in the basement that was 20+ people. This was very unfortunately because it made it difficult to sleep with that many other people in one room. It is really close to walk down to the beach, but there is not really a lot of restaurants that are super close. It was conveniently located to the train station though. Other than this, there wasn't really anything to complain about regarding my stay. The volunteer staff was really friendly, but I don't think that the hostel is managed well overall.
