24 July 2011 Lani would recommend this property

Liked: Quiet and friendly, well equipped kitchens, super clean, walking distance to everything, loads of information about tours and local sights. We liked it here so much we canceled our other hostel booking and stayed on here for another 4 nights instead.

Disliked: Mattresses a bit sunken and the sound of sliding doors sometimes got annoying; these are very small quibbles, though!

02 March 2008 Lisa would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel is extremely clean, and with it's central location it's a 5 min to walk into the centre of Cairns. Safe and secure with lockers. Nice kitchen area to cook and good laundry facility.. Has a nice homely feel, with comfortable lounge area to watch TV and DVD'S which girl's hostel has in abundance, internet connection and heaps of friendly people to talk to, or go out and party with. Or if you just want to sit and read a book you can do that to. There are plenty of tours to do, and the office are very friendly and helpful.
