It's run down and seedy, dark and dingy, bathroom smells, my room had no window, the bed creaked and I could hear every noise from all sides, from the plumbing to the phone at the desk to people talking etc, all night. Despite this it was way over priced by comparison with much nicer hostels I found later. As the bus station has moved and it's no longer anywhere nearby, there is no possible reason to patronise this place.

I stayed overnight and chose it because of proximity to the bus station. I would have been better off trying to sleep in the bus station. I was given a single room near reception which was noisy and the room was very old and dirty. The vanity was coming away from the wall, something else fell out of the wall in the middle of the night and the room smelt of smoke even though it was "non smoking". The shared bathroom was also dirty and I went without showering until I reached my next destination. I would not recommend this to anyone, even considering the location.
The only positive was the free wifi that helped keep me amused for the many hours I did not sleep.

I stayed in a double (two single beds) for a few nights for apx. 30 euros. The rooms were clean, with clean shower inside the room. Across the street from the bus depo, 5 minutes to the beach, 10 minutes to the clubs. Lots of sunlight in the room with a mini balcony. Overall I was pleased and the beds were good.
