This surf camp offers a budget-friendly accommodation experience with a mixed bag of reviews, reflecting an average rating of 3.2 out of 5. Many guests appreciate the cleanliness and well-maintained facilities, with specific praise for the friendly and helpful staff who often go above and beyond to assist visitors. The location is another highlight, as it is conveniently situated near major attractions and public transport. However, some guests have raised concerns about noise from nearby emergency services and street traffic, which can disrupt sleep. Additionally, while the amenities such as shared kitchens and common areas are available, several reviews noted that these are often crowded and not always kept clean, leading to an uncomfortable cooking experience. The hostel is seen as a decent option for short stays or budget travelers, but those seeking a more vibrant atmosphere or less noise may want to consider other options.
