The hostel is in the center of Westport around 40minutes walk from the beach. They offer surf classes and pizzas. There are plenty of common areas but the rules of quiet times are not respected so it is basically a party hostel with loud music and people drinking all the night. Didnt sleep.

Liked: 1) Staff were very friendly and accomdating providing us with a fan to keep cool during the night. 2) exterior design- hamicks and tents and paintings were really cool. 3) Easy to navigate the backpackers. 4) kitchen facilities were sufficient having good space kitchen and cleanliness of the chairs. No dislikes at all.
