When I booked my dorm @beach house, firtstly I had doubts because of the cheap price (was special offer: pay 2, stay 3 nights). So, when I arrived I was very overwhelmed for what I got for my money! Sure, a dorm with 7 other strangers is not that comfortable than a 5 star single dorm, but everybody who decided... More

We havent had any toilet paper since I've arrived. The kitchen is disgusting and there is no way I will be cooking anything in... More

We stayed there for few days... $15 a night but wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Staff were ridiculously unhelpful! One example that stood out was the guy behind the counter told me he had no washing powder left while I could see a big drum beside him! Reception closed from 12-5, no one could check in or book anything. As... More

This hostel is cheap but you get what you pay for. The free dinner in the evening is the best thing about it. The kitchen is disgusting and the service is non existent. Compared to all of the other hostels iv stayed in the staff are unhelpful here and reception is always unattended. I would recommend staying in another hostel! More

Reception is closed for 2 hours a day between 12 and 2 so the staff can have lunch. The kitchen is cleaned 3 times a day and if people would clean up after themselves it would be clean all the time. I will post some photos that show the areas you are complaining about. More

Nice bedroom, plain and simple but clean, bathroom something else, shocking, flooded, not cleaned in days, hair on the floor, shower broken, really bad, insects on the floor, just so bad it's untrue. 45 dollars for a private room isn't bad, but i'd just recommend paying the extra 15 dollars and staying at X Base, alot nicer!

I stayed at the Cairns Beach house with a friend of mine for almost one week and we had a really great time. The staff is friendly and the hostel is clean. There is a free shuttle to the city centre and sights like the botanical garden are in walking distance. If you wanna spent a nice time in Cairns... More
