Nice and friendly staff, cleanliness, great value for money
United Arab EmiratesThe staff and everyone staying at the hostel were very kind and helpful with great advice on what to do around Cairns. Jordy and Klaudia were truly the angels of our trip!
United States of AmericaIt was a great place for the money. Very clean and the dorms had a sink in the rooms that made it more convenient. Breakfast was just okay, but it was what we expected given we were at a hostel and the breakfast was included.
United States of AmericaVibe Clean Comfortable Free gym Free town shuttle Nice breakfast Very nice staff
HungaryThe location may be a bit away from the CBD, but that keep the location a bit more quiet. And there are shuttles provided to The Reef Fleet terminal and town center, which make it more convenient for backpackers and people who stay there. Breakfast is provides with various options, which are great. And the evening activities are fun and interesting and make people communicate and socialize with each other and share informations.
TaiwanThe staff, especially the bartenders were really friendly
United States of Americanice and clean, I stayed in two different mad monkey, this one is more comfortable and quite and nice, but just a but far from the down town, especially in hot weather, the other one is not at good at this one, but closer to everything.
Dominican RepublicSimple but ok breakfast. Relaxed atmosphere dominated by young folks.
United States of AmericaIt's a decent price for Cairns hostels, the pool was very nice and they clean it daily from what I saw. The beds were very comfortable. They also have a tour desk in the main area for anyone that is interested in booking something you don't have to go far. The hostel is about 10 to 15 minutes walk into town for anything you need to do, or they also have a free shuttle service if you don't like walking.
