Good

Shuttle to the center every 30min, free breakfast, lots of activities available and free yoga lessons, very friendly staff

the private bathroom wasnt really clean and the towel you can get from the reception was full on dirty, the pool looked very milky and not clean at some point, kitchen is a bit small for all the people

Id definitely recommend it

The staff at Check in was very helpful and friendly. Everything was very clean, comfy bed and quiet place to rest. I loved the free shuttle service to the city.

Very poor

Like in prison.

Price, shuttle bus

Bed was small and uncomfortable. Room dark. Breakfast included is misleading. Truth is: they provide bread, jam, butter, cereal (exactly same every day) and even this great variety runs out in 30 mins.

Very nice

Very nice and clean place. Comfortable bed. The staff was friendly

the aircon in our room wasnt working so they put a portable aircon in our room and it was really loud all the time. But they were working on fixing that issue. Its a bit further from central but its still in walking distance.

Superb

much island vibe felt like being in a resort

Great hostel very nice tropical vibe. Pool, hammocks, bar and smoking areas provided a good place to hang out and the people were very nice too. It's a bit far from Cairns centre but there's a free shuttle bus provided by the hostel every 30 minutes.

facilities are good though not perfect but for the price paid is completely worth it

Pleasant

It was a good place to stay for a couple of nights in the city.

The place was easy to access and check in all went smoothly. The location is good and if you don't mind walking you're near the esplanade which stretches along the water front of the city.
