Solo female traveller & my first hostel stay. Was quiet when I stayed at the Cock (mid april) but still had an amazing couple of days around town with the staff and few guests that did stay there. Really clean & comfy. Good location to go out or to walk to any of the beaches. Good/cheap meals across the road... More

Mumma makes you free crepes in the morning, there is free Wifi, drinking games every night in the common area, you can hire beach towels for 1 or 2 Euro, across the road from an amazing burger joint and...

The second you get there you feel comfortable and welcome. I traveled with a large group of girls and the staff was very accommodating and friendly and made us feel at home. Great for meeting people traveling and everyone hung out and drank together in the common room which was a lot of fun. They take you out at night... More

Stayed here in July 2012, if you're looking for fun and no sleep, stay here! If you're not, dont. Free crepes in the morning, good parties on most nights, booze cruise during the week and they take you out every night to all the good spots. Plus the burgers across the road are awesome!

The Rising Cock certainty lived up to our expectations! It was packed while we were there, and we had to move rooms a few times, which wasn't ideal, but the staff was great, Mama's crepes were a treat, and the social scene is bumping! A tad expensive, but I would definitely go back.

This is the best hostel. Mama and papa looked after us so well. Mama even made me special gluten free crepes in the morning! Big area to relax and watch movies. Best atmosphere. Met great people. And the rooms are great

Mama and Papa run this joint with passion... but don't expect to get any sleep. On arrival our check in was greeted by a friendly Australian who proceed to tell us most things, but forgot to give us a room key that work and a wrist band for discounts around the place.

As a solo-traveler in her mid-20's this hostel offered an experience that I was looking for. It was social and active, and I met some wonderful people from all over the world. It is not however, for those looking for a quiet night of rest. The room I booked and the room I received were not exactly the same, based... More
