Nice hostel, away from the noise of central darwin, but close enough to walk to. Good sized lockers. Good air con. Free internet but extremely slow. small pool. large kitchen. clean. Was blanked on check in by the one with glasses. A simple" I'll be with you in a minute" goes a long way. The rest of the staff were friendly .

Large kitchen area. Shower and toilets are clean. Quiet (shhh). Garden could do with a revamp. Staff are rude, miserable and need to learn how to undertake good customer service. Useless!!

The room was very good with full size fridge and tea making facilities. The toilets/shower room was shared with men and female. It was OK but not as modern and clean as the room. The shaded grounds and small pool were good and the location next to a bus stop was excellent. This hostel is in a quieter location than most - being slightly out of town, but within easy walking distance to the shops and bars. I would happily stay here again.

My friend and I took a private twin room. It was clean and neat and fairly spacious as compared to the other lodging I had at Alice Springs. Furthermore, the location was good - a 10 min walk from all the buzz at Mitchell Street. Hence it's conveniently located, yet with quiet surroundings for you to have a restful night. We were out most of the time so we didn't really use the facilities. On the whole, we feel that it has been value for money.
