Cheap, good atmosphere, free shuttles to town and airport (both ways!), very friendly and helpful staff. No free WiFi, paper-thin walls More

Nice Staff, helpful with any problem. Problem with bathrooms almost everyday, we should use others available. There is a parking lot beside, sometimes you can't sleep. The shuttle bus is very useful but if you arrive at the airport at night it won't get you there. About the bar when is available is good, after midnight you can't drink, sometimes... More

Nice chilled communal area for cooking and that, was really enjoying it but then got money stolen from our private looked room, watch your stuff even if only cooking downstairs for a short time. Location ok, walk able to town if you like walking and can handle the heat or free bus is good but sometimes gets very busy. Free... More

Stayed here for three nights while on a scuba course. Staff are very helpful with questions, restaurants, transportation, travel, etc. Was one of the dirtier hostels I've stayed in throughout Asia Pacific. Booked a shoebox sized private room and barely got any sleep each night due to 'frisky' neighbors on all sides, thin walls and very creaky floorboards above us.... More

Had an awesome stay. Staff were really friendly and welcoming and the room was clean. The staff helped me book some tours I wanted to do. The shuttle bus to town was convenient and went regularly. The bar was loads of fun, there was a snake show where I got to hold a big snake! I met lots of people... More

I just wrote a book-The World As I Know It. and in it I highly advised to stay here. I backpacked throughout Australia and thought that Calypso was the only place where the staff wanted you there. We had a double room with a little porch. We could see the main area(restaurant/pool table), being so close, I didn't hear anything.... More

Calypso staff are super friendly and the facilties here are good but overall the hostel is run down. I guess this adds to the charm of it all and I enjoyed staying here. If you are wanting to meet other travellers I would definitely recommend it. The kitchen area opens up to the bar area so its an extremely sociable... More

Great location and atmosphere with evening activities/entertainment which can go on till late. Shared bathroom/washrooms are clean but rooms not the best we've stayed in (rather small and no facilities inside). For price we paid we can't really complain and felt very safe. More

This hostel was ideal for one night. We stayed in a double room and it had a comfy bed with clean sheets, a few hooks to hang ur stuff off, bedside tables and aircon..... The shower/ toilet facilities were clean. I didn't venture into the kitchen but it seamed fairly small the hostel bar sold decent food and was reasonably... More
