    The rooms at Wish & Stay are super cozy with a seating area that makes you feel right at home. I loved that every room had a balcony, offering a great city view and making my morning coffee even better. The twin room I stayed in had a toaster and electric kettle, making it convenient for a quick breakfast. The hostel also offers certain units with a patio, which adds a nice touch to the overall experience.

    Personally, I wasn't a big fan of the stovetop feature in the single room. But hey, some people might still enjoy cooking their own meals while on vacation.

    My friends and I had a fantastic time at the hotel, which is conveniently located near the beach and all the restaurants and bars. The staff were friendly and always up for a chat, and the outside terrace was a lovely place to relax. The room had plenty of storage space, and the kitchen had everything we needed.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    The location of the hotel was fantastic, right in the center of the old town. It was very close to the beach, which made it convenient for our family with children. the room was nice and cozy, with a private bathroom that was cleaner than expected. the staff was friendly and helpful, making our stay more pleasant. there was a good little sun terrace where we could relax.

    The bathroom was not very clean and often lacked toilet paper.

    I booked a single room at this beachfront hostel for a short stay. The room was small but cozy, with a comfortable bed and a fan to keep me cool. The shared bathroom was never crowded, and I had it mostly to myself. The kitchen downstairs was well-equipped for cooking meals. The hostel had nice lounge areas and a terrace, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. They even looked after my luggage on my last day. a great value for the money!

    Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

    The location of the hotel was great, being close to the main street and the beach. It was really convenient to explore the area and enjoy the seaside. the staff at the hotel were friendly, helpful, and provided good service throughout my stay. They were always available to answer questions and assist with any issues that arose.

    There were several negative aspects of my experience at the hotel. the rooms were small and crowded, with uncomfortable beds.
