    Really liked this hostel, the facilities were good added bar & restaurant which I didn’t realise were there before my stay so that was really nice. Good location for horseshoe bay & bus stop right outside.

    The social area and bar are set up well: open yet inviting. The design and layout look similar to many of the other Selina locations throughout the world.

    Loved Selina, loved the cafe / bar common area, loved the dorm lodges which had a toilet and shower. Comfiest and nicest hostel I've stayed at for a while! A nice treat, great location too with beautiful sunsets and food/ drink/ hike options from...
