Liked: The staff were really nice, particularly the partner of the manager who was really passionate about Darwin and the Top End which was lovely!

Disliked: I shouldn't take it out on the property too much, but there were some guests staying there when I was who were quite inconsiderate and unpleasant to share the place with. The toilets and showers seem to only be cleaned once a day so they weren't in the nicest state come evening.

Liked: This hostel is fine, it feels like a beach house, different rooms over looking courtyards and a pool etc. Breakfast is all you can eat toast and cereal (and tea/coffee) which is one of the best things about it. The other good thing is the excellent staff, especially young Aussie lass Rhyanna, she knows everything about Darwin and all the tours every company does and can provide heaps of help with all these. So all in all the hostel is just a place to sleep (and meet lots of partygoers if that's your thing), but it's the breakfast and (as I said above) the really good staff who make it above average.

Disliked: No lockers but it seemed safe enough. Top bunks don't have bars on them!

Liked: Relaxed, in a quite part of the city but still close to all the action. Not a party hostel, one of the few in Darwin where you actually can get some sleep.

Disliked: Showers not that clean and quite cramped. Not really safe... shoes got stolen out of the luggage room and staff wasn't that helpfull in my effort to regain them.

Liked: The breakfast, staffs were friendly and quite flexible, the location was good because it's far enough from the loud pubs but close enough to walk to city centre

Disliked: The cleanliness of the bath room would need improvement, the mattress is too thin, the room is very small

Liked: Good breakfast included in the price !!Internet connectivity is stupid. You got to buy a 10$ card first and then top it up with money. Totally stupid when you are staying there for 1 or 2 nights and need to urgently check mail for just 5 minutes. Also, please inform earlier or put up notices that we have to remove our sheets and bring it to the reception before leaving. Not so nice to know it when you are rushing to go the airport and have just enough time just to hand over the keys and get the deposit back.But overall, definitely recommendable place to stay !

Liked: The only thing that made me move was the quality of their mattresses. Sleeping on a foam mattress for more than a single night will give you back pain. Guaranteed. Everything else was nice and well maintained.
