Terrible and dirty place.
Terrible hostel. We booked a room with private bathroom for few hours before and after living aboard diving .The first stay we did not have the hot water in the shower room. The second stay our toilet was not cleaned after previous guests .I understand that it is a hostel. However, the stained toilet is not acceptable in any place. This hostel should not be advertised by hotels. com at all.

Served the purpose
It was good spot just for a 1 night stay for the purpose we needed it for the staff member at reception was some what helpful but blamed management due to no one answering their phones to organise free airport shuttle service so after trying for nearly an hour with no luck ended up costing us to get to hostel with no reimbursement

Liked: Room comfort
Cheap overnight stay
We had the private room. Its located on the botrom floor right next to the yard where a party was happening lucky the noise stopped by 9pm. The room was big however there is no dor between your room ans ensuite so make sure you are staying with someone who you don't mind being intimate with. The bathroom wasn't clean but we only were staying one night.

Fine if you are very young and/or like to party
Pretty run down, loud and party (alcohol/cigarettes) atmosphere. Didn't feel safe, some doors didn't lock.

Lazy Duck rocks!
Like a bassist on a long vacation; splash, I'm loving it! Air con kept the bread fresh and nobody complained leaving it on all day.

The room, bathroom, kitchen...all of them are messy. There is no staff all the time and someone played guitar and sing until 1 a.m.. Moreover, the security is not good. There was a guy who was not live in here but he got a card and slept in our room.

まあまあ
フロントが閉まっていることが多く、チェックインのタイミングが合わなければなかなかできません。施設は綺麗とは言えませんが、値段相応だと思います。

予算重視派で安宿に慣れている人にオススメ
ナイトマーケット、セントラル駅、フェリーターミナル、目抜き通りやスーパー(ウールワース)、エスプラネードやラグーン、日本人におなじみのお土産屋(OKやフジイ)、全ての中間点に位置しどこも5分〜15分はかかりますが徒歩圏内です。 あとは、値段相応の施設に対応できるかです。同部屋の人との相性次第ですが、床に荷物が散乱、電気を消したがる人、物音やいびきに敏感な人、遅くまで外で賑やかな人……。 また、部屋にトイレとシャワーが一緒の場所が一つしかないので、トイレを我慢できず、シャワー中にノックする人も。 (トイレはキッチンにもありますが、シャワーは使えなかったため自分が入りたいときにすぐに入れないかも!) 建物自体は古く、シャワーの湯圧はそこそこで温度は問題なし、Wi-Fi速度はそこそこ快適、 総じて、物価の高いケアンズでこの値段で寝床が確保できること自体がありがたかったです。 そういえば、朝食無料となっていましたが、受付ではついていないと言われました。 スーパーでパンを買ったので大丈夫でしたが……。

適合短期停留的平價背包客棧
位置離車站和購物中心很近,服務態度很好,雖然因為人多環境有點雜亂,但是每天都有定時清潔,游泳池也不錯。

近市中心,平價,廚房設備齊,有車位和wifi, 但接待處開門時間短,泳池細,充電位少,沒有劃定床位,拿枕頭後要立即鋪床和放自己東西,否則會有另一人佔床

dåligt
Alla rum hade AC, vilket var ganska skönt samt rummen relativt rena. Servicen är ett skämt och köket var en katastrof med både insekter och den enda spisen ur funktion. Läget är centralt
