Home Travellers was an awesome hostel.. Myself and three other friends found this place after being kicked out of a bigger one down the road for partying and playing music in the room at 6am.. Shower parties etc... Not to mention we didn't tell Richard that was what happened when we arrived. However we were lucky that Richard is quite... More

Stayed 3 nights in a shared dorm. Guess I was a bit unlucky - my roommates were messy, snorring or had loud sex in the middle of the night. There were always drunk people around, but the common areas closed at 11pm, so after that it was a bit more quiet. Rooms had own toilet and shower, which were supposed... More

I stayed at the hostel one night, when we arrived, the towel rail was falling off the wall, tv cable in a dangerous position and also the shower tap came off in my hand. That night I picked up some infection on my skin, therefore due to this I didn’t want to put the person I was sharing a bed... More

Hi Liz, It's a shame you don't tell the whole truth when you review an establishment! We did refund you $85 for the night of April 7th..... We didn't refund you for the night of April 6th as you requested at 6pm on the 6th! Unfortunately we have been over this many times on the phone and by email and... More

I'm sure this hostel is perfect for some people but I felt it was lacking in many very important areas. It has some potential to be good but it will require some effort and a bit of cash. My first impression seemed OK when I called to book, the reception was nice and the weekly rate was a good deal,... More

Home Travellers Motel is the kind of place you stay if you want to meet people and have a great time, which is exactly what I did. If you want somewhere that is quiet and immaculately clean, don't stay here! For me, I found cleanliness acceptable but there are a lot of long termers here so some rooms are messy,... More
