Great Value and Staff”

This location was a bit away from the central area where the restaurants and shops are so that's about the only downside. The staff was very friendly and able to give recommendations for a lot of restaurants/bars in the area as well as things to do on rainy days if you go during the rainy season as I did.

L'auberge est bien située à proximité des commerces et de la plage. Les chambres et les espaces communs ainsi que les toilettes sont propres. La possibilité d'avoir un frigidaire pour soi (à clé) est appréciable. Ainsi que des casiers dans les chambres. La cuisine est bien équipée avec tout ce qu'il faut pour cuisiner. Dernier avantage, c'est d'être pas nombreux dans les chambres. Chambre de 4 pour moi. C'est top.
