    The bathroom next to the private rooms has no lock at all on the shower. There is a small room with a toilet which has a lockable door, but the room containing the shower cubicle simply has a curtain. You can’t see through the cubicle, but I did constantly worry while showering that someone would walk in the cubicle. Once while showering people did walk into the bathroom and use it while I was in the cubicle.

    A great place to stay for your trip to Agnes Water. Great location - a short walk from the beach and very nearby to the local shops and restaurants. Our private room was comfortable and had air con. The hostel chef cooks cheap dinners each night - we never took part but I thought it was a nice touch. Good social events each night. The staff are great and the guests are friendly. Lovely relaxed vibe. We felt right at home.

    Recommend booking the room with ac because one with just a fan got super warm. -Lots of long term people -Kitchen wasn’t anything special -Surf boards not free to use

    Rooms were spacious and individual washrooms were a nice add to the room! Location was great close to the main beach. -Good wifi (no service here with some providers) -Good location -Big rooms -Great Staff

    We didn’t arrive until close to 10pm & had feedback from a team member that the kitchen was closed and we weren’t able to use a kettle. Perhaps in future consider that late arrivals might require facilities upon arrival.

    Clean and comfy double room. Check-in process fantastic and easy.

    Not an issue but check in isn't until 4.

    Lovely hostel in a very good location. Easy parking, nice room, good aircon. Shared bathroom but only between 2 other rooms so no issues. There is a fridge in the bathroom which was v handy. Kitchen is well equipped. Quite busy but a nice vibe. Table tennis table was appreciated. WiFi actually worked which seems to be a rarity in australian hostels. Good value compared to other places.

    Pool table has seen better days.. it would be ideal to have a ceiling fan also in the lounge area.

    The room was lovely. Equiped with a mini fridge, ceiling fand and AC. All clean and comfy.

    I stayed for four nights and i didn't get along with the staff at all, they all seemed a bit pissed?I originally paid for the sunset tour, the staff told me there is a market only for today, I should join that. They asked me two times what was really nice I thought and I said yes both times. Later on they told me they leave in a couple of minutes, so I got my phone from my room, had a quick pee and they were gone... Other stuff couldn't get them on the phone. It was kind of sketchy.. I had to get a refund for the sunset tour too because the car broke down the next day. Nearly all of the people worked there or somewhere else. Spent an evening at another hostel and felt much more welcoming. Mattress was really sagging

    Clean, nice movie night, dinner options, bike rental, close to everything

    Felt like I was intruding a bit as I was in a dorm with a lot of long-term guests. Very untidy dorm and a cockroach in the bathroom

    Good value for money and nice sized kitchen. Pick up and drop off to the greyhound, which was much appreciated
