    It’s a decent hostel but not anything special. The dorm room was very overpriced for how limited your space is and I was expecting something spectacular because of the high price but it was far from that.

    Great place, with amazing staff. Good, quiet location. Easy to walk to town or to the sea (during the day). It’s not a hostel as you have your own room, but shared kitchen/dining area. Would come again

    First of all the staff are lovely, the welcome I received and the check ins each day to ask what I had planned were much appreciated. The room was perfect for what I needed, might have been a bit tight for two with luggage. The parking is good, I didn’t struggle to get a space either in the courtyard or on the driveway at the front even returning late at night. Breakfast was good with plenty of fresh fruit.

    We had 4 nights at THE BIG and loved our stay there. It is just 15-20minutes away from Waterfront (by foot) and it is a safe and calm area. The staff is extremely friendly and is giving their best to assist in every moment. Our room (Double) was small but absolutely sufficient and the bed was comfy. They are cleaning the room (and whole accomodation) every day. Breakfast is simple but tasty and it is possible to bring own additions or to cook some eggs in the morning since there is a fully equiped kitchen. Parking lot is secured by an automatic gate. Also very nice people there to connect :) we would definitely recommend this place!
