Pros:

Schön ruhig gelegen. Ein Spaziergang Richtung Stadtkern bietet schöne Aussichten und dauert etwa 10 Minuten. Die Zimmer sind recht klein, aber ein Schreibtisch dient der Ablage. Nette und bemühte Gastgeber.

Cons:

Den Preis fürs Frühstück sollte ich selbst bestimmen. Das hat mir nicht so gut gefallen. Mir ist es lieber, wenn ein konkreter Preis genannt wird. Andernfalls ist es ein wenig unangenehm.

U get what u pay for - cheap and loud.
Pros:

Komfortabel seng, og ikke langt å gå til stranda - rundt 1km. Men hundene og støy holder deg våken gjennom natten og avtalt pris via booking ble ikke holdt av utleier som økte prisen. Familien er hyggelig, men klarer du ikke å sove gjennom støy vil jeg anbefale å ikke booke her dessverre.

Cons:

Støy og øking av pris (selv om det var ekstremt rimelig å bo der). Vanvittig varmt, og uten å lukke vinduene blir hundehyl og musikken for mye.

Pros:

Sehr liebe Besitzer und süße Hunde (freundet euch mit diesen an damit sie euch wieder erkennen wenn ihr im Dunkeln zurück kommt). Sehr gutes und ausreichendes Frühstück. Sie würde euch immer mehr geben bis ihr satt seid.

Cons:

Lasst euch nicht von deren Tuktuk-Freund zB zur Bushaltestelle fahren. Wir hatten 350 ausgemacht (Pickme Preis war 306. Er hatte erst 600 vorgeschlagen) und während der Fahrt hat er versucht auf 400 hochzuhandeln und als ich ihm sagte ich sei aus Deutschland hat er gelacht und meinte "aus Deutschland und nicht mehr bezahlen wollen??" Dann hat er mir von seinen 5 Kindern erzählt um mich umzustimmen. War eine sehr unangenehme Fahrt, aber dafür können ja die Besitzer der Unterkunft nichts, deswegen keinen Abzug bei der Bewertung

You’re staying at a room in the family’s house, they are really nice people and super helpful and friendly!
They made us really good breakfast every morning.
It’s super close to the surf beach and to blue beach which is really beautiful!

Cons:

The whole experience was pretty chilled, nothing to complain about.

Great stay - very good value for money.
Pros:

Really lovely people who ran the home stay. For a place with a fan it was very good, and the room was a great size.

The location is great, a little further out of town, but in a nice way. There’s a 10-15 minute walk into town via the beach which is lovely.

Cons:

Honestly no complaints as it’s so affordable.
