we spent a wonderful time in this hostel. It's very charming, the view over the sea on the island is just great and the owner is very very nice and helpful!

our room faces the seafront and the views were wonderful. But there was no instruction for the internet use, and we had to call to look for the staff - unconvenient; most importantly, the HEATER DIDN'T WORK at night when it was very cold (IT DID WORK for 1 HOUR during dinner time when we WERE OUT for the kitchen and dinning room)!!

The heating doesn't work properly and the shower of first floor, and the toaster. But the place was nice and the owner of hostel very friendly, she told she will fix the things for the following guests. :). And nice views from the window of the living room.

Tiny hostel in an old house opposite of the small harbour, room windows all to the sea. Very good self-catering kitchen. Staff not staying at hostel, you get your own key for the front door.
