Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I had an amazing stay at this hostel! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable, and the atmosphere was so welcoming. Plus, the Persian restaurant was a delightful bonus. The flavors were incredible, the presentation was beautiful, and the service was top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great place to stay and dine. They also have vegetarian options to choose from. There is a beautiful beach just a few minutes away and a 711 next door.
