to get started.

Great staff, nice and clean beds, wall sockets for each bed. I stayed in a 8 shared room and there was plenty of space for everyone. Many benches for having meals, write emails or hang out with your friends (anyway, there a need for sockets in this area).

The atmosphere of the hostel was great—everyone was very friendly. The free shuttle is also a plus! And you have to try the panini special, it’s AMAZING

Bailey

Good value for Cairns. Beer, cider, and water available all day at the reception, and the bar was decent at night. There's a free ride to town and back every hour, let's you off at the night markets. Bed was comfortable, and breakfast was free (if basic). WiFi was fast, and they have an early shuttle to the wharf if you're going out to the reef.

“Horrible experience. Staff are rude and steal your food. Management is terrible.”

Staff was incredibly rude. I stayed for 2 weeks and booked by the night on booking.com and yet multiple times staff would rudely wake me to tell me I hadn't paid and ask me to come to reception when they would then realize I had paid online the night before but failed to apologize. Staff also were incredibly unhelpful and imcompetent when I reported an entire crate of groceries I had just purchased was stolen. Staff refused to check the cameras until I later found out it was a staff member who had taken my food even though it was clearly labeled. After this the cameras were finally checked and all I was offered was a free wash and dry which didn't even come close to covering all of the food that was taken. The assistant manager was also rude enough to make me decide to finally cancel and leave because she had the nerve to lecture me rudely about not checking out at 10am even though I had already booked another night and nobody had bothered to tell me I would need to switch rooms. I wouldn't recommend this hostel to anyone. The kitchen was always too crowded with not enough stove burners and one of the few burners was broken half the time I was there. The bathrooms were crawling with spiderwebs and spiders because they were not cleaned properly and we also saw a roach in the bedroom because the room was not deep cleaned as it should have been at least weekly. The free breakfast was average and the printing was more expensive than at other hostels and the public library. I have since stayed at 2 other hostels in Cairns and both are much better luckily tham Calypso. Mad Monkey village also falsely advertises free bike rentals when in reality they don't have any for rent. I would not trust any of the mad monkey locations. Go somewhere else.
The free shuttle into town.

It is not located in the town centre however there was a free bus that takes you there.
Lots of free extras such as access to the gym and fitness classes. A free bus that picks you up and drops you off in town etc. There was a bar and a cheap burger restaurant inside the hostel.

Very nice and clean hostel! A bit far from the city, but not more than a 15 minuts walk and it is totally worth the walk. If you don’t like walking, a free shuttlebus goes into town every hour. The common area in the middle was very nice and people just chilled there and enjoyed themselves. Great breakfast with pancakes:-) The staff was very nice also. You get alot for your money here! This is where I would stay if I ever come to Cairns again!

Although there are quite many showers, at least a couple were out of service most of the stay. Even though we reported that the USB sockets were not working, no one came to fix them. Although the staff were friendly and helpful in general, I really didn't enjoy the "room check", that is staff coming in and putting the light on late in the evening when I was already asleep.
The facilities are good, there are two kitchens which is a big plus because people mostly use the main one outside and forget about the other one and leave it empty :) there are also sockets next to each bed! And loads of space to keep your food.

Shower room is not really good. Unfortunately I couldn’t use hot water at the time. May be one of the shower was broken. And the manners of using Kitchen is also not good. After some one use it very dirty but staff clean up later.
Very kind staff almost of all are so nice. If you like to talking and party I recommend to stay here. But it’s noisy until midnight. If you dislike it other mad Monkey is better. It was totally clean.
