Nice service with free shuttle bus from airport, this made my choice with no disappoint. Shower area has little bit smelly, but hot water supply enough is more important. Good location, near Carins Central, easy to find food.

Òtimo hostel com um excelente serviço

Ótimo hostel com um serviço fora de série. Desde o primeiro momento foram muito atenciosos auxiliando na escolha de passeios na cidade e fornecendo van gratuita para ir do aeroporto até o hostel. Além disso, o hostel realiza algumas atividades gratuitas durante a semana. Quando eu estava hospedado, teve uma "noite dos répteis", onde levaram cobra, crocodilo e lagarto para que os hóspedes pudessem tirar foto com eles e conhecer um pouco mais sobre os animais da região.

You should definitely stay here

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Hostel was clean and comfortable, they have a swimming pool, pool table and lots of different activities. Free parking and wifi was a huge plus. Location was really convinient: shops, lagoon, restaurants all in a walking distance. Loved our stay here!

The staff were all super friendly. They are doing an excellent job. The beds are all really comfortable. Its never too busy. The obly thing that was dirty was the kitchen, so even when the workers had cleaned it. It was a state. It just draws in so many flies! I think they maybe could do with perhap upgrading the kitchen

Goedkoop eerste overnachting voor camper

We maken een reis met de camper, maar moesten een eerste nacht overbruggen met een hotel. Lekker goedkoop, faciliteiten waren prima. Lekker zwembad, vriendelijk personeel. Kon lekker in de tuin zitten aan picknick tafels.

I'm 57 and it was my first time in a backpackers

Room 5: The bathroom exhaust fan did not work and when someone upstairs showered, water dripped through the edge of the exhaust fan on the ceiling. It looks like this has been happening for ages as the ceiling was mouldy and water-damaged there. Wifi did not work in my room. Otherwise the hostel was fine and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Will return

Started well with the prompt airport pick-up. Check in good. I had a 4 bed dorm to myself :) probably because they took pity on an old guy. Appreciated by me though. The WIFI did not work all the time so I ended up using my own USB WIFI. Not much around the area so just walked the streets. Will return next week for a longer stay, and will do more then. I will update the WIFI situation in my next review.

Cairns stay

Having a free shuttle to town really helped. You can walk there, but it's a long way to carry groceries. I also loved the free shuttle to the airport and to early morning boat tours. The staff was helpful and the vibe was cool. Also, the pool was nice.

Friendly and fun hostel

This hostel goes out of their way to provide activities for backpackers. I enjoyed reptile night very much. The staff is accommodating and kind. There was some deferred maintenance that should be taken care of. The curtain rod was falling apart, the sink faucet was wobbly, etc. However the showers had great pressure and lots of hot water! Overall a good value for the price

May 2017.

I stayed here alone for a few nights and then a few friends came and joined me. The hostel is clean and tidy the majority of the time. The kitchen facilities could be updated as there are only 8 hobs to cook on and only half of them work which can be an issue when everyone is trying to cook dinner at once. It's good that you can BYO alcohol, as a lot of hostels don't allow this in Oz.

Typical hostel- loud, noisy, not very clean

We stayed one night here when we arrived in Cairns in the evening. It was fine for a one nights stay. The hotel shuttle arrived almost 1 hour after being confirmed, but was warned of that when we called for it (they said about 30-40 minutes). The hostel is just as you would imagine- very loud with heaps of backpackers. The staff was friendly, helpful though, so kudos to them. The place itself was not very clean and a bit run down, but again what you could expect from a hostel? By no stretches of imagination could this place be referred to as resort though. We stayed in a private room so we were able to get a bit away from the commotion of beer pong and drinking games. In conclusion, I can't really fault the place for anything. But definitely understand that this certainly a party hostel and nothing more or less.
