Liked: Very clean
Disliked: No sitting outside after 10pm, the locks on the rooms doors are really noisy when people come in at night...- it's not worth planning to sleep before 2am

Liked: I used to do reception in a hostel in London and while this place isn't quite as crazy I highly recommend it, it has loads of character!!! It was super chilled to stay at! I slept well. Location is great. No problem with staff � I know people always complain about how clean places are this place is CLEAN.....We will definitely stay againThanks
Disliked: Nothing..... I didn't really talk much with staff or guests but that was all good everyone was kinda doing their own thing

Liked: Friendly staff, small kitchen but provided many sauces and spices. Beds were okay.
Disliked: Worker hostel. My 8-bed-dorm was a giant mess, everybody spread his belongings (including weed) across the floor. I was silently rebooked onto another hostel (Lantana Lodge instead of City Garden Lodge). For a 8-bed dorm of this kind, and in a remote location, I found 34$ a lot for a night.

Liked: Location is fair, room for 2 was good size. Good areas outside of house to socialise or chill.
Disliked: Reception not open when claimed which caused problems in returning hire car. Kitchen was infested with flies due to rubbish bins for food not having lids. Toilets and showers all unisex, badly designed and not enough of them for the number of guests.Management cram even more guests in by using tents in the grounds and one caravan. One definately to avoid

Liked: Unabke to answer as we dod not end up at city garden lodge
Disliked: They overbooked the hostel and had to move us to the owner's other hostel down the road, Lantana lodge, which was very different and the room was not what we were expecting. Other reviews have mentioned that this has happened before so I wish I had listened.
