Friendly atmosphere
Great location and very friendly atmosphere. Rooms clean and spacious. Bathrooms are heavily used so can be less than spotless later in the day. Kitchen clean but sometimes a bit cramped. Seems to lack quiet communal space. Nice courtyard out the back though.

Another belter of a hostel, rather homey. I had a room looking onto Marine Parade and the view was awesome. Staff were friendly and really helpful. a great place to chill out, as I said right on Marine Parade and a short walk into town. you can hire bikes across the road at Marineland, and there are some top notch bars and cafes in the area. Overall really nice.

Stayed here in March 2006. This place was just okay. Location was nice, near the beach, but the hostel was overcrowded (they were putting people up in storerooms and staff quarters) and the staff just didn't seem to care. Nice TV room, but bathrooms were tiny and not very clean, and the bunks were squeaky and uncomfortable. For what they charge as a YHA, you can probably do better elsewhere.

This is a good hostel with lots of character. The staff were some of the friendliest and most helpful people you could hope to find.
