Lots of cool people here, bathrooms and kitchen cleaned daily, and good value! I loved having the ACs in the room for the Darwin heat! Good location, nearby many businesses.

Only stayed 2 nights, checked in late and staff were great. Location is perfect. Despite being on the main street, not too noisy. Room was clean. Sink and fridge in room which is great.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location in Darwin Cbd. . One of the best hostels I've stayed in. Made lots of good friends unlike other hostels where nobody will talk to you . It's also quiet enough to sleep if you are working.The owner has speedy response if any problems occur and great tips for things to do in the local area.
