The location was amazing, we were so close to the ocean that we could hear the surf pounding all night long. We also spotted whales just off the shore.

The view and location was superb! Just staying at an old lighthouse was amazing. It's not your usual hotel, it's a hostel, so no special comforts like meals or nice fireplaces etc. You just go there to watch the ocean and surrounding cliffs....
