Cheap and good hostel, MASSIVE garden to hang out in. Really cool people around. Rooms and bathrooms clean, Big kitchen. Cannot fault it. Also big BBQ on a Thursday for $2 which is one of the best nights in cairns.

This is the worst hostel I have lived before. The first time I check-in the room, it's so horrible. The floor under my bed very dirty. There wre a lot of litters hair, and sockes. It seems like one clean it.
I could understand the public area is dirty, cuz some people didn't clean up after use. But the must clean the room brfore customers check-in!!!

In short- don't stay here.
In long- the place is a total shambles. Filthy, broken, looks like a special effort was put in to not put any effort in the place whatsoever. The initial room we were checked in to had a very surprised person sleeping in what was in theory our bed. After that was rectified, we were moved to a separate room with 3 holes in the floor and a nice big cockroach to keep us company. The same cockroach ran across my bed at 2 am and woke me up. Thankfully I was too tired to be disgusted. Pay a few extra bucks and stay at any other place. For serious. We moved to Tropic Days backpackers which was fantastic and highly reccomended and cost 4$ more- but seriously. ANY OTHER PLACE.

The kitchen was terribly dirty, the beds were uncomfortable, and the whole place felt like it had been neglected for a while. The only positive is that they held my bag for several days free of charge after I checked out.

I can absolutely Not complain about this accomondation! They offered breakfast, washing facilities, more ore less clean bathrooms, Free Internet Access and a very neat Swimmingpool plus an comfortable Outdoor area! Bright offering compared to the Small prices.

The worst hostel I have ever been to, it was dirty and smelled awful! I've been travelling for a while and stayed at several hostels and none of them have been this terrible. Our room was so bad that we demanded another room. I can only suggest to others to find another hostel.

The price is good enough. But doesn't have any locker facility inside rooms and the environment is not so happening there..

I got the distinct impression that this place was inhabited by long-term resident slobs. What a mess.
I was put in Dorm C, and basically had to squeeze my way around literal piles of people's crap lying spread out all over the floor. The place doesn't seem like it has been cleaned in donkey's years.
The lockers were a joke - no security whatsoever. Half of them had the doors broken off, and the other half, the base was missing in the top locker making it one long locker (with half a door). All of the lockers were overflowing with piles of people's possessions, out onto the floor. See attached photo, with ironic sign. Nowhere to store your things.
Well, you could store your bag under the bed, like I did, but you'll find when you pull it out that it is covered in a very, very thick layer of dust.
The beds themselves? More metal springs than mattress. I've had comfier nights sleeping on the ground in my backyard.

Upsides: price. I paid something around $17, which is cheap - though I wouldn't consider paying a cent more for this place.
I was also able to store my bag for free during the day after checking out, which was nice.
Social area looked like it was good, though I wasn't around long enough to hang out there. All I really experienced was the dorm room, which was simply the worst room I've ever stayed in - and I've got an extensive history of hostelling.

I originally had this place booked for 2 more nights on my return to Cairns, but I cancelled them immediately after staying here, and booked at the lovely Caravella on the Esplanade. Only a few bucks extra, and it's far, far nicer. The staff are a helluva lot more friendly too!

Cheap, but common in Cairns. They said they freeze 20$ on your credit card and then you get it back after you leave and give back the key and bed linens. Lies. I didn't get my money back, my friend didn't get her money back. I don't have to come and beg for my money, kinda obvious that if it's your job, you send the money back. I ain't here to do your job. Unpleasant. Plus no air con, so hot. And they say they clean often, nope, really dirty. Jazz Cairns backpackers is 18$ a night, clean and very nice staff. Just saying.
