Best hostel on my trip. The private twin was renovated and the bathroom was brand new. Beds are comfy and they provided coffee, tea, cookies, kettle and mugs. Lovely to have access to full kitchen. Close to the supermarket and Sunday bakery.

Such a good location, bathrooms were so modern and spotlessly clean, really big and powerful showers, kitchen was always maintained and cleaned and there was lots of free condiments in the kitchen which is handy as a backpacker making meals!! Best hostel on our trip up the east coast

Great location- walking distance to everything. Friendly, helpful staff and nice clean facilities and rooms. The pool area was also very nice, as well as plenty of outdoor and indoor eating/ chilling space. Best hostel I’ve stayed in so far!
