7 / 10Good·Oct 2026
The place was clean and there were plenty of good facilities like a washing machine and dryer, a pool and there was easy access to local amenities. They also had a scale for weighing luggace which was very helpful. The staff were friendly and helped me with my bag up the stairs and showed me to my room. It was a very chill vibe, wasn't busy and could always find a space to do cooking, showering, drying my hair etc. They are quite strict on rules when you first arrive such as no loud music/no partying, so you know you won't be getting into too much if that's not what you're into
The fan was way too cold and although it was a nice respite when I had been out all day in the heat, the remote was so confusing to use and I struggled to find out how to change the settings so I wasn't freezing all through the night. Thankfully they do give you an extra blanket to help you try amd keep warm, but you'll definitely need extra socks and a jumper cos it isn't much. There is also a quiet time after 10pm but one night there were a group of 4 French people upstairs at 11pm - 11.30pm doing some sort of Arts and Crafts and being really loud, and no one came to tell them to be quiet, and since the walls are quite thin, it kept me awake for ages. That was the only thing they seemed to be a bit lax about, all the other rules were kept pretty well, so if you're a light sleeper then maybe bring headphones Also the curtains in the room didn't cover all the windows so some windows, even though they had frosted glass, were still open whem I was trying to sleep and letting light in which was a bit annoying when trying to sleep

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
