Billabong Gardens Reviews

Awesome place to stay! Very much long stay people, but alle really friendly en felt at home immediatly! Also, rooms are vacuumed every day, bathrooms are alright en kitchen is alright as wel. Can borrow everything from the hostel. Also a really nice location, 20m walk into the main street of Newtown and al cool places accessable by foot. Train station about ten minutes walk away, bus stop in 20m. Really really really nice place, only possible downside is everything has to be quiet at 11pm.

This place is fantastically situated 30m off the main road in Newtown which means you're close to pubs, supermarkets, cafes, shops and transport in to the city, however it's surprisingly quiet. There seems to be a lot of long-stay residents there, but our lot were lovely. Decent enough facilities and private lockers, friendly/helpful staff and a brilliant location means i'd recommend it to others.

I was there for 5 days. 4 of them I stayed in a double room in the minor building. It was pretty nice there because it wasn't that busy like in the main building and cleaner (perfect if you wanna stay with your partner/friend). The last night I stayed in a 6 dorm. It was okay but there was hardly no daylight in the room. Furthermore, the aeration couldn't get stopped...so it was noisy the whole night! The neighbourhood is sometimes a little bit loud so be prepared getting awake at 8.30am...
