BUG review
This centrally located Irish Pub has cheap dormitory-style accommodation upstairs in clean rooms plus shared facilities that include a laundry, a TV lounge and a small but fully-equipped kitchen. The pub downstairs is really nice and does meals but the accommodation feels dated with old-style carpets and old furniture in the common rooms. It is cheap and central and probably the best option in town.

Stayed here just 1 night - the Under Down Under tour of Tassie use it as an overnight stop. Can't really complain. The rooms were pretty good, and there was a decent size kitchen and a a balcony to sit on.The Irish pub is a good place for a drink and serves a wide range of food on an evening.

Stayed in this hostel just for one night, but it was very clean and bright. Had trouble finding the reception (it's in the games room of the pub downstairs) but once we were in it's spacious and clean. Kitchen is a bit small, but the showers were nice and it's in a great location.
