Lovely! Great shared spaces and v good private room
Charmian, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would highly recommend!!

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in Australia. Rooms were cleaned daily, beds comfortable, bathrooms clean. Kitchen got a big messy at times but do not believe that was at fault of the management but rather the other guests. Was spotless every morning. Lots of utensils, appliances and space to be shared! Reception was super friendly and check in/out was quick and easy! Short walk into city centre and bus stops to access beaches around the corner!

Chrishantha, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Locked myself out of my room in the wee hours of the morning, thankfully there was someone at the desk!
Christina M, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Particularly friendly and informative staff. I even received access to bathrooms, kitchen & dining room and quiet room for the rest of the day after I had checked out. The only slight negatives I had were finding space in refrigerators in the kitchen to store my stuff, and the fact that guests ignored the request to dry and replace kitchen crockery and utensils after they had rinsed or washed them.
John, 14-night trip

Awesome! Clean. Modern. Quiet. Affordable. Great location!
