8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (1)
"Extremely welcoming and generous owners. Nice (not fancy) accommodations, only 3 min walk to beach but more like 15 min to center of very crowded surf zone. Great spot if you're looking for someplace inexpensive and with a kitchen. One downside is the hostel next door plays deep bass music, but seemed to quit by 10pm or so."
