I really enjoyed my stay hear, it was very clean and quite. The Staff was very welcoming and helpful especially Zenon he was very helpful at recommending activities to do around the area and overall a great person to have a conversation with. The other staff were really helpful as well. I definitely would stay here again if ever find myself in Cairns.

Excellent quiet hostel that will make you feel at home!! The staff are all very friendly and the smaller size definitely makes it feel more homey. Would recommend if you are looking for a hostel to call "home" while you are away!

It was as clean and comfortable and all you would expect given the price. Central and easy to walk along the esplanade into the centre - it’s at the quieter end. Staff very helpful and polite. Added bonus of a pool.
