At check-in Claud was very friendly and helpful. The property provided basic accommodation typical of a hostel. Good facilities for cooking your own meals but grocery stores inconveniently far away.

Good choice in Castro

Lovely place on the water. Very welcoming host. Cosy and comfortable. Only problem we encountered was that breakfast we ordered did not appear at the specified time and we had to leave with a minimal provision for the money.

My booked room was sold to another couple, so don't be taken in by the one really good room on sale, and spposedly booked for you.. or be prepared to walk away and find somewhere else if they aren't providing what you are paying for!

Es un palafito con ambiente bohemio / el responsable muy atento para dar informaciones/ disponen de diferentes opciones de habitaciones desde compartidas , privadas y una suite 24m2 La situación está a 8 minutos de centro ciudad / la zona es tranquila y hemos podido aparcar en la calle delante.La cama muy comoda. Es necesario controlar los alimentos depositados en el frigo por habitaciones NO todo mezclado sin control cuando marcha el huesped abandonando alimentos/ los enseres para cocinar y menaje necesitan renovación

Fint sted med god service fra de unge medarbejdere

Vi blev meget vel modtaget af to unge medarbejdere, som var meget imødekommende og venlige under hele vores ophold. Man kan tilkøbe en fin morgenmad. Stedet er hyggeligt, men der bliver varmt på værelserne, når temperaturen er mere en 20 grader. De unge mænd som arbejdede der, var søde at låne os en fan. Det ligger lidt væk fra byen, og man skal op af en seriøs bakke, for at komme ind til centrum. Når man ikke må smide toiletpapir i toilettet, ville det være rart, hvis skraldespanden på badeværelset bliver tømt dagligt, hvilket desværre ikke var tilfældet. Fint til prisen, men man skal have fysik til at gå på stejl bakke, når man skal ind til byen.
