BUG review
This is by far the best place to stay in Nimbin. A colourful and extremely well maintained complex of dorms and common areas are tucked away beneath palm trees and gardens, and look out to a beautiful view of the hills and Mt Warning. The accommodation options include a huge tepee with mattresses on the floor, and a nice yurt with a double bed. The pool is beautiful and the kitchen is newly renovated and clean. There is a quiet, relaxing feel to the place, and it attracts a lot of backpackers from all over the world.

On my arrival I could feel my body pace reduce. I was welcomed by chris, I was also welcomed by the guests. The atmosphere is very relaxed and is the MUST go place if you need to get intouch with your inner self. I made some wonderful friendships while I was there, one of those friendships was with myself. Chris is an amazing host, he has a wickered sence of humour and is very much on a mission to create "EDEN", he is almost there, he has accomplished a hell of a lot in a short time. The people that chose to come to Nimbin Rox, have made the right choice, the hostel is the most amazing place that I have been to. If it is the only choice you ever have to make, choose NIMBIN ROX
