The staff were very helpful, free dinner was delicious, location was perfect and an easy walk to anywhere i needed to go
Cayman IslandsThe staff at ocean backpackers are lovely. So happy, smiley and up for a chat. The hostel is nice, bathrooms modern and clean and the bar downstairs is nice. The room itself was pretty average, a little dated but I liked the big storage lockers in the room. A lot of noise coming in from the street tho even with the window closed.
CanadaGreat location. Includes free dinner. Fun friendly vibe. There's a free breakfast and free drink voucher each night, but only if you book directly with them, otherwise it's a few dollars extra. I was there over Christmas and they made a really nice Christmas turkey dinner, which was great!
United States of AmericaCleanist hostel I've ever stayed in! Good facilities, free dinner and just an easy place to stay! Highly recommend.
AustraliaGreat location , well run operation.. Lots of lockers for personal items.
United States of AmericaFor the property itself, inundated with an abundant amount of travelers, I was impressed with the cleanliness of the bathrooms and the property as a whole. The free meals (you receive two), were quite good, but be considerate enough to clean your own dishes in the community kitchen. I stayed in the microdouble room with sink, albeit cozy, but wonderful. There were individuals of varying age ranges from early 20's to 60's, so there is never the feeling or notion of feeling out of place!! Danke fir die bleibe!!!!
GermanyVery centrally located and easy to get to any tourist attraction and food. The complementary dinner was also good. Communal areas like bathrooms were kept very clean. We stayed in a private double room with a sink. We had no problem with noise even though our room was on the first floor close to the bar area.
United States of AmericaFriendly staff, despite massive turnover in guests the place was well organised and clean. Location convenient.
IrelandFree food, lots of information available about tours and such, free drink if you book through their site, cute cosy clean little place with an abundance of lockers and bathrooms. An all too common experience in hostels is not being able to get into the bathroom when you need to, but this won’t happen here! Also laundry on premises and free dinner and breakfast!
United States of AmericaFirst time at hostel, stayed in small double room, was pleasantly pleased at a lot of clean bathrooms on every floor no issues! Didn't try the free dinner but that's a great perk making things affordable! Happy my request for additional pillow was granted...I had surgery and need two...my partner made do with one. Extremely close to everything downtown! Staff was pleasent, fun, kind. Would stay again, possibly upgrade to queen bed with sink. Curious to know more about their suites off site.
