Liked: The owner is very friendly. Good value for money
Disliked: No internet. They dont answer on e-mails. We booked 48 hrs in advance but they claimed it was not in their data until the day after we arrived (however it was no problem get our room in time). Rooms not very sound proof

Liked: location
Disliked: The kitchen area and the adjoining lounge were filthy as hell. There was dirt everywhere. I've travelled a lot and stayed in many hostels around the globe but that hostel was really dirty. There was staff to clean everything up but they rather enjoyed a nice smoke outside. You can get better value on the island if you look around...

Liked: The location is great within Kingscote, we had a private room which we could lock when we left to go sightseeing for the day. There is a fire place that is frequently stocked up that heats the lounge which is great to come back to during our stay in winter, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
