    We had a lovely one night stay at Bushpig Backpackers. The room was very spacious with a big balcony. Everything was very clean. Food at the downstairs restaurant was great. We really enjoyed our short stay and would highly recommend.

    The staff was very friendly. It was possible to get a breakfast package, because we would be leaving before breakfast started. There were also many activities organized that you could join.
