    Mattress covers would have been good, as the sheet against the vinyl mattress cover made it hot.

    A couple of very small changes would make the room slightly more comfortable. A hook for hanging towels to dry, and a power point near the shelf near the beds, so your alarm doesn't need to be plugged in overnight on the other side of the room and risk waking neighbours up.

    The location and the feel of this hostel are just wonderful - I stayed in three different places during my time in Noumea and this was my favourite. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff who make it feel like home. Great location - unless you want to be near the touristy beaches (which I didn't). It's got a much more local feel in this part of town and I loved it. Merci à toute l'équipe pour un super séjour, trop court!

    The location for me did not work. It is right at the top of the city that is good to go to the ferries and other islands but bad if you just want to go to the beach. The taxi service in New Caledonie is the worst that I encountered in any country. Twice I stayed after 8 pm, and I had to get a lift. I waited for more than two hours, called several times and the taxi never came. If you are renting a car, this is the place to stay.

    The albergue is excellent. It was really well organized with individual cutlery, cupboard fridge espace. Beautiful view and nice shared areas.

    Lack of atmosphere in the hostel. There were a lot of working people and not many travellers.

    Nice views. Helpful staff and very well organised system with your own cutlery and plates. I liked the big walk-in fridge with my own locker. Nice and big locker in my room.

    No comfortable place to chill, the chairs were all rigid plastic. Needs a hub where people can comfortably chill and relax and connect and make new friends. This could be in the upstairs TV room perhaps or outside in the under utilised area off the kitchen. Also some sun loungers or bean bags would be nice.

    Good kitchen, friendly reception staff, nice view, secure storage in the bedroom and kitchen.

    Would have been good to have soap/hand wash in the bathrooms.

    We stayed here on our last night in Noumea as we had an early start the next morning to get to the airport. Check-in was easy and the staff friendly. There was a chute at reception to put our keys in as we left before reception opened the next day. The room was very basic, but clean, and the fan worked well. It seemed a quiet, relaxed place. The view is amazing and it was very easy to walk down into town.

    Centrally located in Nouméa, keep in mind that it might be a bit noisy (you're on a Southern Pacific island, so it might be because of local birds), otherwise, the staff is lovely and does speak English to a certain amount. Beds and bathrooms were cleaned on a daily basis

    Kitchen is closed 2-4pm Reception is closed 12-2pm and after 6pm Beds don’t have ladder/railings (can seem a bit unsafe for someone) I missed nicer chairs/sofa/comfy corner

    One of the best organised hostels, I’ve been to. Wifi-fantastic everywhere Amazing view! (Yes it is on the hill, ufff) Super friendly and effective staff Laundry for 700, you get a detergent as well You get your own key for food locker AND fridge “cage spot”-your own cutlery and plates/cups in the food locker!!! Well done hostel Kitchen is very clean (that depends on people as well) Rooms are very spacious (both dorm/private) They provide you with a key to lock your stuff in a biiig “cage” in the dorm Fans in rooms (no AC needed) Long veranda connecting all the rooms in one floor (with the great view!)

    It is located on the top of the stairs, so at night can be a bit tricky. I got a car from the second day, so all good. Probably in the single/double room I'd suggest to add a mirror, it was basic furniture, that is pretty good for an hostel. Nothing major anyway.

    Great location close to the old town and close enough to the wharf. Very clean hostel and great staff, in particular Jerome and Angelo, very helpful and nice!

    Not really negative, but's a standard youth hostel, don't expect a lot of comfort or luxury.

    Staff is very helpful, the place is well organized. Kitchen is great, with locker and fridge system.

    Being told no kitchen options at 10pm one night. This seemed an inconsistency but you did feel they were a little overkill on when things should be quiet given the location wasn't disturbing others and no one was loud. If you don't like a bit of a climb up a hill then not your location, but the venue is worth it in my opinion!

    Great location - enjoyed being on the hill with great view over the city and bay in a quiet location. Great kitchen facilities which were well organised so everyone had their own storage space and it was secure and all locks included in price. Information about things to do and knowledgeable staff. Shower and toilets all very clean and room fine for the type of accommodation. Plenty of options to be sociable with fellow guests or go and hide as you wished.
