Very good!
I loved how it worked, the amenities, and our room. Luckily there was air conditioning!

Great location and very clean 💯
the welcome, the equipment, the dormitories and the common areas were incredible. Everything was ultra clean and practical, I will definitely go back. 💯 And the price was reasonable

not as hoped
the en suite bathroom and the location
hygiene, people in my room were friends with the staff, so everything could log everywhere without anything being done about it

is ok for a few nights
The accommodation has a super good location and the bathrooms are very good.
We had a twin room which was nice in itself, but the humidity in the room is extreme! If you don't open the window and the air conditioning isn't on the dehumidifier (this makes the room very cold), the carpet and the wall will be wet the next morning.

perfect for a short stay - great location... not great for long stays
Convenient location, easy check-in, helpful staff
seems a bit quirky (with backyard rooms)

Recommended if you are not sensitive to noise
The location is perfect right in front of the beach in the lagoon. The rooms were modern and clean. There is a bathroom in every room, but unfortunately a bit noisy as you can't close the windows facing the hallway.
It was a little noisy

1 night but no more! We won't come back
The geographical location, a good wifi connection, relatively clean rooms and common areas.
Average reception. The hostel is very cramped, it looks like it is at the back of a kitchen. The prevailing smell is very unpleasant. The private room is dark and depressing, smell of damp. No real common areas and the fridges are outside the kitchen, not very practical.

Very clean and friendly staff
The staff were very nice and everything was very clean, the shower was very good.
It was a bit noisy, the cooling of the refrigerators was very annoying at night.

One of the best hostels for me
In front of the sea, clean kitchen, clean shared bathroom

It was my only option since there were no other rooms in the city, they gave me a roof and a bed, which I am grateful for.
I did not gome breakfast, the location is good and the staff friendly
I didn't like the issue of not having a card and having to download an app, I couldn't leave the room leaving my cell phone charging and after a long day of work I arrived with 1% battery and was able to enter the hotel, it should exist an alternative to that. When I entered the smell was horrible, the same with the kitchen. Then it got better, it seemed rustic to me, the first floor is very shabby.

Fantastic and charming location
First of all, the location is fantastic. And the accommodation is tidy. It is comfortable to turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day in the hot and humid Cairns weather. The kitchen is cool, the rest area, and the refrigerator are really nice. There are no bugs in the accommodation.
The door to the shared bathroom on the first floor does not lock and the water pressure in the shower is weak. However, there were bathrooms and toilets everywhere, so it was rare to encounter other guests.

a gloomy place
Good rooms, air conditioning, spacious and comfortable kitchen. Very good location. If it is a place just to sleep it is perfect.
A place with zero hygiene, dirty walls, dirty bathrooms. All very messy. There is a very loud noise from a generator, zero security measures (it was the garbage disposal area of the nearby restaurants, also only once and luckily we were able to see someone at the Concierge. Breakfast is served at a ridiculous time, considering The tours leave at 07:30 to 08:00 (breakfast is from 09:00 to 10:00) we were never able to try it. The bathrooms are mixed.

It's worth it :)
Free wifi Very quiet now - almost no guests Nice outdoor area Friendly staff
There is almost no daylight in the rooms (separate double room), the lighting in the room makes you feel like you are in a basement. We found very long dark hair on the bed There is no pool however the public pool is in close proximity. The entrance was hard to find, no signage, etc. Rather distracting signs from nearby restaurants.

excellent quality price.
I liked the hostel, quite liked it, the breakfast is good, something elementary, you have to arrive early, because after that there is no fruit left. I liked the good atmosphere there. The hostel is small but ok
I feel the housekeeping could improve more. the kitchen was always dirty, the bathrooms in the rooms, I was there for a week and did not see them being cleaned. I think they can improve the cleanliness of the place

Good hostel
Good location! Very impressed with the staff. They responded very kindly and politely. I had the impression that the staff was doing their best to clean the room, and many of the people who stayed there kept it relatively clean. Free breakfast with fruit and pancakes is perfect. It's really rare to have a water server, and it was nice to have cold water immediately. Paper towels are also installed in the toilet and kitchen, which is really convenient. I highly recommend this place, including price, richness, facilities, etc. I want to stay again! ! !
There is only one toilet and shower in the room for 12 people, so I can't shower for a long time. Also, the bed is a little too soft for me and I sink, but I can sleep well 😊

素 晴 ら し い
This is the first time I've ever had a bumper with such high quality at such a low price!
Not in particular.

It is very nice
Free pizza one day, comfort with console, TV.
There is a lot of noise in the yard at night, drinking and loud music until 12:00 on some days.
