On the hill above town, this small hostel is a very pleasant place for budgeteers, with two dorms (one six-bed, one four-bed) and a couple of doubles squeezed in under the eaves of the modern house. The pool, patio and kitchen complete a sweet package. Take the Cassis Casino bus from the station, get off at Belsunce and walk 200m.
