to get started.

Comfortable beds, facilities always clean, great location, great value

K8sw8ing, Australia

When my plans changed and I was hiking for an extra day I asked a friend to pop in and let the hostel know I wouldn’t make my booking. As there was no phone reception the staff reserved a space for me for the next night just in case which was so nice of them. The 4 bed dorms are really comfortable. Each has its own bathroom, there are plenty of plugs and there are no bunk beds inside

Alexander, United Kingdom

location and distance to town centre -convenience for shopping,eating out ,-easy walking distance.

Akemi, New Zealand

Newly renovate room. Comfortable bed. Excellent community kitchen. Location.

Paul, Australia

Loved the location. Also loved the layout. We had a private room with shared bathroom but only had to share with one other room. Also had a kitchen to share with the other room. It was very quiet and the main kitchen was well equipped. Also had very pleasant gardens

Lorraine, United Kingdom

Room has attached bathroom. Nice location and very quiet.

Manh, Australia

Friendly and comfortable place to stay Stunning view over lake Easy stroll to village

Jenny, New Zealand

This place has a great lakefront location, where you can watch the sunset and also take a walk/jog around the lake. The facilities (kitchen, utensils and bathrooms/toilets) are clean. Parking spaces available.

Amelia, Malaysia

Great location on the lakefront, also attached to the same name hotel so there is a big restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner options. Small Four Square supermarket is nearby, lots of walking tracks starting from hostel. Large parking lot, bunk beds, relatively clean bathroom and toilets.

Kinga, United Kingdom

Good located. Had balcony with nice sea view. Common room was comfortable.
