Nicest hostel on the east coast. Everything is spotlessly clean and the communal courtyards are beautiful. Stayed in a queen room and the bed was so comfy! All the staff were amazing, Ellie, Mary and Jayde were so warm and welcoming. They made it feel like a home away from home. Definitely stay here!

LOVE the staff, met the best people there & the bathroom as well as my room were always clean! As a female staying in a mixed dorm, the staff made it their priority that I felt safe at all times. Had no issues at all ;)

I had such a lovely experience staying in this hostel, it was such a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff were so kind and helpful, I felt very safe and looked after as a solo traveller. The rooms and outdoor areas are very spacious and always kept clean. It’s also minutes away from the beach and in walking distance to everything you need. I hope I get chance to visit again. Would recommend to ...
