BUG review
Coromandel Town Backpackers is small hostel with only six rooms, but not much character or atmosphere. One structure houses the rooms, and there’s a separate, high-ceilinged shed with common areas. A very small TV lounge is located near the reception and a big open kitchen and sitting area are in the main space. It’s all very clean, but there really is no ambience, and its location right on a main road gives it a sort of motel-like feeling. Guests have free use of bicycles.
