Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Always asking how we were doing, cracking jokes, giving us tips to help with our adventure planning, etc.
Location: It's located about 3 blocks back from the beach, which was great. And it's a short walk from the promenades and main nightlife areas, but just outside of it all. So it's generally quiet at night. Of course this also depends on who is staying at the hostel at the time, but that's a risk you always take at hostels. When we stayed it was quiet a couple nights, and then loud one night. But staff was good about kicking out the drunkies towards midnight. Usually we were out, but the one night we were staying it, it got a bit noisy. Everyone was always lively and hanging in the common areas. Drinking and talking story at night.
Accommodations: the rooms were very nice. We had a 3 bed room and it had it's own bathroom which is always a nice luxury in a hostel. Towels were also included. Only problem with the bathroom was the shower was TINY. So small, I had to contort my body into all sorts of positions just trying to bend over to get my shampoo bottle. Nice to have our own shower, but could've been larger. Rooms were well decorated and painted and looked very nice. There was a TV and some storage cupboards with loops for a padlock if you brought your own. I'm sure they would rent them too if you needed one.
Breakfast was included if you booked through hostelworld: cereal, pasteries, muffins, toast, butter, jam, coffee, milk, etc. Pretty standard affair for an included breakfast. It was roughly 2 euro if you didn't.
They also had beach items anyone could use, including beach towels and pads for laying on the rocky Nice beaches. Towels are cleaned, you take from the clean pile, return to the dirty towels bin. It was nice to have these things instead of using my bath towel on a rocky beach.
Overall, this was a good hostel and I'd recommend it to friends and most likely stay here again.
