    I had a great experience at a budget-friendly accommodation close to the beach. The staff were really good, even accompanying me to the hospital when I got injured. The location was perfect, with a nice outdoor area and parking available. The kitchen was sufficient, although some dishes needed pre-cleaning.

    We were pleasantly surprised by the laid-back atmosphere and friendly staff. the common area was well-organized with plenty of seating and a restaurant on-site. It was easy to meet people and socialize, making it a great spot for party people. the 10-minute walk into town gave the hostel a calm atmosphere away from the busy party district. the beach was just steps away, and we loved the secluded feel of being in the furthest part of the beach. Tsunami hostel offered good value for our backpackers budget.

    I stayed at Tsunami for a few days and it was perfect for my low-budget stay. The friendly staff were always available to answer questions and help with anything I needed. The location was great, just a short walk to the beach and close to supermarkets and bars. The hostel had everything I needed, including a kitchen and a place to wash and dry clothes. The room was small but sufficient, and the bathroom was basic but did the job. I would definitely book a room here again!

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    The location of the hostel is fantastic, just a short walk away from the beautiful beach. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance as well. the rooms are small but clean, and the shared kitchen is sufficient for preparing meals. Plus, the hostel offers a variety of seating options outside, such as a hammock and a picnic table, perfect for relaxing.

    Noise can be an issue, especially if you're trying to get some early sleep.

    I had such great value for my money at this hostel! The room was cozy and comfortable, and the staff treated me like a VIP guest. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the bustling downtown area and right across from a beautiful pathway to the beach.

    The breakfast items could use a little improvement.

    Despite the bad weather, we had a relaxed and wonderful stay at Tsunami. The kitchen pots were a bit old and burnt, but everything was clean enough. The staff were super relaxed and helpful, making the whole experience stress-free and easy. We loved the recommendations and common areas that they offered as well. The bed was comfortable and the communal area was pleasant with a large table and some hammocks. Plus, there was a pretty path onto the beach right opposite the hostel. I highly recommend this place for a convenient and enjoyable stay.

    We had a great stay at a hostel near the beach. They even rented us scooters at a great price so we could explore nearby beaches. the location was decent, just a short walk to the center of town and only a couple of minutes from the beach. the hostel had a chill out area with hammocks, perfect for relaxing. the experience was fantastic and we highly recommend it. Cons: Could not be improved in any way! 😊.

    The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, always with a big smile and ready to assist. The location of the hotel was fantastic, just a few steps away from the beach, which was very convenient. They had a great kitchen and common areas, perfect for meeting other travelers and socializing.

    We felt like we overpaid for what we got, especially considering it was during a peak holiday period. There was an issue with the payment at the reception, where the exchange rate seemed to be inflated, which left us feeling scammed.
