The sleeping room was dirty and smelly and it looked like the trash hadn't been cleaned out from under my bed in weeks. Bathrooms were better but with a toilet paper shortage.AC functioned poorly in the room with half of the room hot and the other cold. A noisy, party place not for serious tourists more for boozers. Internet $4 hour. The sleeping room was dirty and smelly and it looked like the trash hadn't been cleaned out from under my bed in weeks.

We stayed at Cavanaghs for a couple of hours as we arrived in on a late flight. We wer given a room that was booked up then we were put into another room and found the dorms to be standard enough but no ladders for the bump beds. I'd say tough enought for the drunken nites. The receptionist was a bit rude and was more interested in chatting up girls than doing his job. Definitely only for a stop over.We stayed at Cavanaghs for a couple of hours as we arrived in on a late flight.

The kitchen was very smelly and did not invite to beeing cooked in. Think the place had more focus on running a bar than a hostel, so things were pretty dirty and not well kept. Very nice pool thoughThe kitchen was very smelly and did not invite to beeing cooked in. Think the place had more focus on running a bar than a hostel, so things were pretty dirty and not well kept.

The worst I've seen. Mattress sagged through broken bed frame; ill fitting shower curtains caused water to run into drainless toilet area, to use toilet you had to stand in dirty shower water; if lockers had doors, they fell off when opened; I had to store my things on bed as there was no room, which made sleeping in the hole even more interesting; filthy kitchen so packed that food bags were stacked on top of each other.The worst I've seen.

Apart from 2 memebers of staff who could not do two much for you (worked in reception) I found a complete lack of interest and sometimes a very rude reply when ever coming into contact with staff. Beds where damaged and without ladders so they were both diffcult to get into and sleep in as they made a terrible noise if you moved in them. Food was good in the cafe and pool was a nice extra.Apart from 2 memebers of staff who could not do two much for you (worked in reception) I found a complete lack of interest and sometimes a very rude reply when ever coming into contact with staff.

Booked 8 dorm: 10 people slept there, no shelves, no lockers, everything lied on the floor, very dirty. Bar is very loud. In the night reception staff is working in the bar, so you have to compete with drunken guest if you want something. Pool is nice. Would never ever stay there again.Booked 8 dorm: 10 people slept there, no shelves, no lockers, everything lied on the floor, very dirty. Bar is very loud.

Cramped rooms, you couldn't swing a cat in the 6 bed dorm. Thank God we were moved from the 12 bed dorm which was worse! Very noisy 24/7 - our room was right above the bar & pool. Security was a joke, our room mates constantly left the door unlocked & we had no lockers for our belongings & people can just walk in off the street & upstairs to the rooms. The room was a complete mess. The staff were the only thing that we can be positive about this hostel, but they can only make up for so much.Cramped rooms, you couldn't swing a cat in the 6 bed dorm.
