Buena habitación mediana con AC y baño. La cocina está okay. Zona común es grande y con un bar. Hay bastante ruido alrededor del hostal con música y gente trabajando en muelles con lo que puede dificultar el sueño.

Une bonne adresse

Localisation parfaite dans le village de Old Bank. Hôtel sur pilotis à l'ambiance très cool et sereine, comme un air de paradis! Le personnel et le capitaine Andrew sont adorables et proposent de bonnes excursions. Dommage, cette ile pourrait être parfaite si elle n'était pas si sale :-(

Tolle Unterkunft mit kleinen Mängeln

Das Hostel ist toll gelegen. Direkt über dem Wasser. Wir hatten das de Luxe_Zimmer, mit dem wir zufrieden waren. Die Gemeinschaftsküche ist super durchdacht, die Ausstattung lässt allerdings zu wünschen übrig bzw. könnte teilweise erneuert werden. Andere Strände bzw. Orte auf der Insel sind teilweise nur mit dem Boot erreichbar.

La ubicación era muy buena, la cocina estaba bien equipada y el personal amable. Podrían limpiar un poco la entrada trasera que daba mucha pena y muy mala imagen.
