After going between different hostels of varying grades of cleanliness, what a pleasant and refreshing break to be here! My friend and I were so happy to have our own room after being in dorms for a number of weeks, and staying here is just like renting a lovely cottage or house. Very homely, it was so nice to relax...

Have been staying at Minto regularly over the last 12 months. Great place to stay, rooms including kitchen and bathrooms clean and tidy. Staff always obliging and nothing is a problem. Minto is situated close to public transport, ( bus outside the door) and train not far away. Self check in system is very appealing to me, i know which... More

Lovely place, tidy and quiet, well located, within walking distance from West End cafés and restaurants, and 10 mn bus from CBD. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Free WIFI available. I will definitely recommend it.

We did enjoy eating breakfast on the front porch but the bathrooms seemed to always be occupied as there is only 2 for all the guests.The location is ok, not really walking distance to much. No one is there to greet you or answer your questions, but a bulletin... More

We missed out on staying at a nearby hotel and to be honest Minto was not our first choice. We had to attend an evening function after flying down from Cairns so our stay was simply an overnighter. I sent an email asking if it was possible to leave our bags there prior to our room being available and received... More

Like other reviewers say, its quiet, clean and location is convenient...but the internet connection is quite bad. I stayed in room 6A facing the back of the house and it got really hot in the late afternoon/evening. Front rooms are nice since the breeze tends to be coming in the front of the house. Staff is friendly, beds are clean,... More
