Great stay at Hippo! The staff were very accommodating and helpful. There are two common rooms/kitchens and many places within the property to hang out inside or outside. Also a big plus is that there is a lot of onsite parking, which is rare at a QT hostel. I’ve been at many hostels in QT and this is one of the best for the price and space if you’re willing to walk up the big hill!

Very noisy on the first night. Lots of drinking going on. Long term residents too who made it seem like it was their property. Lovely views though.
