A big, well-equipped hostel with a nice bar. You will have no problem finding it, right on the esplanade of Hervey bay. It is quite central, with many stores and tour booking agencies nearby. However, like most places in town, it is not so close to the Urangan Jetty, where all the boats for Fraser island and for whale-watching cruises depart from. However, in most cases, pick-up can be arranged.
The hostel is built on a large area, and offers laundry facilities, Internet access, bar meals, and a pool. There is also a pool table and a ping-pong table. There are central showers and toilets, one for men and one for women. The showers are colorful and in good condition, however, there isn't always hot water available. The owner of this hostel is very nice, and you can find him around all the time.
Most of the rooms in the hostel are five-bed rooms. The rooms are big, but very basic. There aren't any lockers in the rooms, but there is a luggage room where you can also put your stuff in case you are going to Fraser Island. The hostel also has its own Fraser Island tours that you can book at the reception, and heaps of other brochures.
