Amazing
This hostel is wicked, you can take your own booze into the rooms unlike a lot of hostels around cairns where they have a no alcohol policy. The staff are very friendly and are always up for partying and showing you the best places to go out. They also helped me plan my travels down the east coast and gave me lots of tips and advice. I'd strongly recommend this hostel to anyone!

If you want to stay in a clean and friendly hostel with a vibrant atmosphere I would recommend Njoy!

Welcoming, friendly, funtastic!
This hostel is one of the cleanest i have stayed in in whole of australia. The staff know their stuff and booked all my tours for me down the east coast. There's a really relaxed vibe here and the staff know how to have fun and get the guests involved. i will be staying here again very soon!

Excellent!
This hostel is great for backpackers with extremely friendly staff. I loved it so much that I ended up staying for two weeks before traveling down the East Coast. If the bad weather wasn't hitting in January then I imagine our stay would have been a lot longer. There isn't a bar at Njoy, which is great -- so you are allowed to bring your own alcohol in, which makes your stay even cheaper. The kitchen was kept clean at all times and our bed was extremely comfortable. I can honestly say that I haven't a bad word to say about this hostel! You will have a great time!

Grumpy staff
Watch out for the staff here! A couple of the guys were ok, but I don't think the girls have heard the phrase "a smile goes a long way." Room was fine, if a little welcoming of beasties, due to a gap between wall and a/c unit. Great communal area and films every night for all to watch. Avoid the kitchen if you can.

Is it really for backpackers?
I couldn't even book a night in that backpacker because they only allow it if you have a credit card. They don't seem to know that having a credit card in an Australian bank is quite difficult when you are only staying one year. And they don't make any effort to find a solution to this problem. Not welcoming at all.

Fantastic value!
This was a great place to spend a couple weeks while in Cairns. The staff was super friendly and very helpful with booking tours, rooms were clean, and the pool was really nice! A really chilled, relaxed place to spend some time soaking up the sun. Highly recommended!

Very chilled and clean. Friendly staff, great pool!
It was a quiet backpackers, so we could go out to party all night and sleep afterwards. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The twenty-four-hour internet was good for messenger with my friends at home. One of the cleanest backpackers I stayed at! I miss Australia, I can't wait to go back there!
