Staying at the Freezer Hostel was unique. It had delightful art and provided an opportunity to meet people. We reserved a family room for 4 people and the double bed was really small for two adults. It was a great location to check out some if the sights in the National park.

Close to attractions. Outside look was not good and dirty. Bathroom has only one dark color towel, doesn’t look clean. Bedsheet was dark color too.

This is a good value hostel for exploring the peninsula. We stayed in the Time Machine Room - which had 4 bunk beds in it. There are no lockers or privacy curtains, but the blackout curtains work really really well. They also provide some great 3M ear plugs for free. The kitchen is a good size and we were able to cook breakfast and dinner without fighting for space. Lovely huge common room which also doubles as a bar/live music venue/and hosts a theatre. Unfortunately nothing was on when we stayed (Mon/Tuesday night) but they do have events on Thurs/Fri/Sat. There were two bathrooms for the hostel, and I was worried about queuing but ended up having no issues at all using a bathroom when needed. Rif is a very small fishing harbour/village and there isn't really anything to do in Rif itself - you'll want to get out and about. Parking was easy.

Assez surpris à l’arrivée (dans une petite zone d’activité puisque le bâtiment est une ancienne poissonnerie). Le concept est un mix entre dortoirs et chambres individuelles. Ce qu’on a pris avec sdb personnelle (Aurora3). Cuisine commune si ça vous tente, et un salon bar très sympa pour déjeuner, jouer, lire ou soirée. Un concert soft un soir. Super. Chambre très correcte et on craignait le bruit des activités mais pas du tout. Belle expérience
