This is one of the best, cleanest hostel I have stayed at. Do you like it calm, quiet and peaceful. Then you should stay here. So big and comfortable beds with TWO pillows! I wish I didn’t have a bus booked to leave Townsville. I wish I stayed little bit longer. I stayed in the 28 mixed pods. Thanks for the sleep I haven’t got for weeks!

Such a lovely place to stay, beds are so so comfy and cozy. Big bed as well which is very nice. Showers are lovely and kitchen is very nice, not lots of cooking equipment tho. Lots of long term people and not social but meant it was nice and quiet.

Great place in a really great location right by the Greyhound station and ferry station to Magnetic island, and also right next to the Strand. The facility is amazing and brand new, with top tier appliances. It is also literally on top of the water, especially if you have the waterfront pods, so the view is amazing. Only complaint is that the bathrooms weren't the cleanest.
