Sh*thole. No aircon, devoid of people, receptionist who didn\'t even know what the Oz Bus was. Expensive compared to other hostels of a higher calibre. I could only recognise Fiona the very friendly barmaid as being the one positive feature of this overpriced pile of sh*te. I would never recommend it to anyone.

My room smelled like a dead Koala, but besides that it was a lot of floorspace, a fridge (which could need a dash of cologne as well)and a chillout couch. Linen, cuttlery and even pots & pans(!) has to be collected from the reception. The bar was the only part of the hostel that impressed because of the good old classic rock songs they played there:) You can find plenty of better budget accomodations in Cairns for sure...
