The staff and general vibes of the hostel were suuuuper cosy! Location is perfect and price is very fair.

The place could probably do with a revamp.

The bed and the lines were clean

The kitchen was dirty, the common area was dirty. My room was clean but there was a bad smell, a mix of burn/vaping and dirty, all coming from the carpet on the floor. I had to spray my car perfume to be able to fall asleep. Wifi doesn't work.

Calidad precio excelente. Genial spot. Hostel con personalidad

7.0

La propiedad es abierta. Tienen tbn la opcion por si prefieres ir con tu carpa y acampar. Pudiendo usar las zonas comunes. Amplio espacio de parking también. Ademas esta muy bien situada si vienes de la bahia de Coles Bay para pasar la noche y arrancar hacia el sur al dia siguiente (que fue mi caso). El resto de alojamientos al rededor estaban carísimos o, prácticamente sold out. La habitación que reservé era de 4 female room. Estaba limpia y con linen fresh. Tenia calefacción. Baños comunes y cocina y sala de estar también. Lo llevaba todo un solo chico. Muy amable, por cierto. Lei los comentarios al principio, y me asusté. Pero me animé a reservar. Y la verdad que bastante bien calidad/precio. Muy silenciosa, ademas, la propiedad. La recomiendo si estas de road trip. Dale una oportunidad :)

El dueño debería de ponerle mas amor a la propiedad. Es un sitio bonito. Para una sola persona mas varios voluntarios es difícil mantener un “high standard” de tener todo impoluto y arreglado

Most disgusting place I’ve ever been to!

1.0

Nothing

This was the most disgusting, dirtiest and creepiest hostel I’ve ever been to. The kitchen was so dirty and stinky that I couldn’t even touch anything without thinking I’ll get some disease. There was no staff in the hostel, only self-check in. Everything was extremely messy and weird, looks like some place straight out of a horror movie. There were two guys in the common area that were totally high and didn’t even move, I thought they were junkies. The room didn’t have a window and was mouldy. Worst experience in my life. Even cheap hostels in Asia are better than this!
