Cute little hostel on Magnetic Island which was adequate but not amazing. We loved the pool area and walking around the grounds, also enjoyed the bird feeding. Nice chill environment in the communal areas. The staff were all friendly and welcoming.
The room had a few little things that just played on our mind. We stayed in the queen room with private bathroom - the sink is so so unnecessarily tiny, they provide a kettle in this room but it’s almost impossible to fill in the sink, every time you wash your face or teeth water just ends up everywhere and on the floor. No floor towel provided (only 2 small bath towels) so water just sits on the floor, and then the toilet door is water damaged and swollen so is hard to open. There is no need for the sink to be so tiny, a standard size basin and cupboard would fit with hanging space on the adjacent wall.
Other little things are - provide tea/coffee and cups in the room but no teaspoons; there was no remote for the fan and when we asked about it was told maintenance would be told but nothing happened - no wall switch so just couldn’t use it; no blinds or coverings on the windows and the street light from outside just shines through all night. Again just a bunch of little annoying things but add up and could be such a simple fix to make this place amazing. Outdoor hooks or small clothes line would be great as well given it’s an island with lots of swimming/water activities.
