A really comfortable and happy stay, great staff, good position and great value for money.

Pros: Simple and comfortable room and fabulous shower room en suite. Generous breakfast provided. All the staff, without exception, were friendly and helpful. Great idea of a WA group which covered everything that was going on in the vicinity - like having a private guide! Thank you Claudia!

Cons: I can’t think of anything that could be better.

Great place to meet awesome people.

Pros: The location is convenient. and the staff are nice, breakfast is included. And I met many cool people there.

Cons: The fan in the room doesnt work well so it's kinda toasty. And the big dorm room is facing the road so you probably need to prepare your ear olugs.

good hostel in a great place,would happily return

Pros: the breakfast is excellent more than enough to set you up for the day,eggs,toast,pancakes,juice and coffee.the colonial zone is quite small so any location would be good for sight seeing,but the hostels location is also quiet.the beds were comfortable with fan and aircon and although my room was quite small there was enough space under the bunks and in lockers to store belongings.
