The picture shown of the property is not the property I stayed in. Very misleading!!! The property is not on the beach. It's in a residual/business area a couple of blocks from the waterfront. I chose a private room which I liked but it was above the outdoor dining area of the pub below so noisy & cigarette smoke until 11 p.m. I couldn't open my windows which was very uncomfortable since there's no air conditioning & my stay was in July. Staff was nice (men only). Breakfast was included-continential.

Great location, great staff, a good seaside stay!
Good location, friendly staff, a bit noisy, would benefit from sound proof insulation in the floor over the bar downstair. Since bed was not the most comfortable, don’t be afraid to ask for extra pillows. Staff was amazing!

L’auberge était correcte. Très petite cuisine et une chaleur extrême à l’intérieur (difficile de manger à l’intérieur). Belle cours arrière. Je ne m’entendais pas à rencontrer un chien sur le balcon avant de la propriété et qu’il est acces à l’intérieur (désagréable lorsqu’une personne à peur des chiens) j’aurai aimé qu’il l’indique sur le site.

My first and last hostel
The bar/ restaurant was
right below the rooms amd the band played loudly until 11:30.
Bed was hard and staff took forever
to acknowledge me when I got there.
