this is the second koalas hostel ive stayed in and neither have a system that includes bookings from hostelworld so both times they have booked me in as a new booking when i arrive. this is fine so long as you have your confirmation otherwise they charge you full price on top of the deposit paid... more this is the second koalas hostel ive stayed in and neither have a system that includes bookings from hostelworld so both times they have booked me in as a new booking when i arrive. this is fine so long as you have your confirmation otherwise they charge you full price on top of the deposit paid to hostelworld. If they're fully booked be prepared to be turned away as your deposit clearly doesnt secure you a room if they have no recollection of your booking!close

NIce pool and bar (heard rumours about underage people being let in). The walk up and down the beach keeps you healthy but it's really nearby and there are lifts you can get. Bathroom was kinda moldy and rooms were pretty warm. A fun hostel.

The hostel had a buzzing nightlife but had a few faults. You have to pay if you wanted more than a mattress sheet and the bathroom wasn't the greatest. Get your shower in early because the water can be used up pretty quickly if there are a few of you using in a short space of time!

Be aware that this accommodation is not that close to the beach - about a 20 minute walk. The pool and outdoor dining areas were excellent.

Hope you have alot of money, for everything you need you need to pay a deposit for. Even your sheets $5 + 1.5 for the washing. The kitchen only have one knife & its chained to the wall, like anybody would walk out with it. You are better of staying at the YHA next to the busstation.

This hostel cost $25 a night and it was not worth it. There was no air conditioning in the room and the bathroom was dirty with no hot water.

Had a good few nights there. The staff are excellent, especially the main guy, top notch attitude to guests. They don't have lockers in the room, but apart from that it was a really good place. Very good kitchen with a nice TV area, plus a very lively bar!

There were a few thefts while I was there because it's not obvious that the doors do not automatically lock. The rooms are very basic and old so never really look clean, even though they probably are. As far as socialising goes, it was great fun

Staff pretty good fun and helpfull, room basic but clean enough and it is quiet if you're away from the bar area. Bar good and met nice people here, good location between best shopping street/beach/national park.
