I was mainly staying in Townsville as a stop off and this seemed the most conveniently located place! Just a few minutes from an array of food places, shops etc. and a very short walk to the esplanade! The reception/ kitchen/ lounge area was pleasant and clean, almost felt like a hotel at times! My one complaint would be bathrooms;... More

Rooms air conditioned and spacious. Communal area had comfy couches and a hard drive of movies which was good. However, kitchen was dirty and messy so didn't want to cook in there more than once and bathroom (could only find one on our whole floor) was always dirty and more often than not without toilet paper. Was ok as a... More

This is by far the best hostel I have ever stayed in! The prices are good, the look and feel of the hostel is more fancy hotel like. The floors are shiny and clean, as are the toilets and the kitchens (yes they have 2!). The kitchens even have an oven, which I really enjoyed. The lounge area is great,... More

This place is nice. The kitchen is big and clean. The hub of this place is the lounge. There are heaps of lazy boy style chairs to relax in while watching a show on the big flat screen TV. Each bathroom is a self-contained unit with a toilet, a washbasin and a shower. The bathroom can be locked. This is... More

Ended up becoming a long term resident because the rooms where just so good. It is on a main bus route making it somewhat handy to commute into the CBD. The staff at the time where all very cool down to earth people and always willing to help with any problems. The place was always clean due to the full... More

Stayed here one night before catching the ferry to Magnetic Island. Was really blown away by how stunning the building is. The communal areas are so modern and luxurious for a backpackers- fully fitted kitchen, big leather sofas, wide screen tv. You are also allowed to bring your own drink into the property which was a nice change from most... More

The building itself is just great! The beds are comfortable, there is AC and a fan in the room; the bathroom and the showers are just great! clean and modern; the kitchen is equipped with everything you desire! even a dishwasher! the only (tiny) negative points: the hostel is not in the main city center, but there's a bus you...
