Mumma's Hostel Cairns

Very clean and well run

Very convenient location. Excellent, friendly staff and cosmopolitan clientele. Quiet VERY clean & excellent kitchen.

Not a lot

Everyone was respectful, quiet.

The person who slept in the bunk under me kept their perspnal lught on ALL NIGHT. The front staff person was not sure about parking and there was no way to find out about where the bestbplace to park was. I was worried about getting a ticket all night. I did not get one, though.

Good location close to Cairns esplanade, lagoon and harbor Spacious and clean common areas & dorms Well equipped kitchen (oven, utensils etc) Great WiFi

When you book on Booking it is noted that you are booking several beds in the same dormitory, but in reality the hostel does not take this into account and separates you into several different rooms. No solution was offered to us, so we asked for a private room instead, for which we had to pay an extra $24 (a more commercial hostel would have probably not charged this amount) The bed in the private room had an old-fashioned, uncomfortable spring mattress. The room itself was not super pretty. We were in a dorm for the last night and the dorm was really good for a cheap hostel
