Really enjoyed my stay here, in one of the private doubles. The hostel is decorated as you would expect a woolshed to look, adds a nice touch! Bit of a walk to the main supermarkets but the hostel offers a courtesy bus. About a 10-15 min walk to the beach.

Thanks for the positive comments! However 10-15 minutes to walk 400m??!! Wow...

We stayed, thanks an upgrade, in a Deluxe Double Room with TV and DVD Player, which was really nice and clean at all. The hostel is surrounded by a wonderful garden and equipped wit a nice common area and a kitchen. Organization was perfect, including pick up / drop off to the bus station and the late check-in into our rooms after coming back from Fraser Island in the late evening. We would stay here definitely again!

I really liked the common room in that wooden shed has a lot of character. we enjoyed the dart board as well. It is a nice quiet place and the garden is beautiful too. The rooms just didn't look like on the website, still quit cost though.

Someone said it\'s like staying at a friend\'s apartment rather than a hostel, a pretty good description. Great staff. A real party hostel, don\'t stay if this isn\'t what you\'re looking for.

Good location very close to the beach and local restaurants in Scarness. The hostel had a very relaxed atmosphere.
