Cancellations only during reception hours 48 hours notice to be given for cancellation, during peak season 7 days notice If your idea of a vacation is going to sleep at 6 pm, our hostel is not for you, our bar rocks from 6 pm I am so sorry to hear that you did not have a good stay with us, and more importantly the noise you dealt with whilst here. Our Barman (at the time) was known for having the music rather loud however it should not have been at a volume to keep guests awake. He no longer works for us and I should hope this same situation will never happen again. Once again I apologise and should you wish to stay with us again, we will give you discount accommodation
