BUG Review
This hostel is set in a huge old motel near the centre of town. It is quite a popular place for workers, despite some maintenance issues, and there seem to be many return guests. The air-conditioned rooms have TVs and kitchenettes, and most have en suite bathrooms. There is also a large communal kitchen that could be cleaner and they have a common room with a big TV and pool table. Management are friendly and helpful with finding jobs.

good if u want to get a job in a metal factory, banana farm or abbatoir. bad if u want to have fun! innisfail itslef is pretty amusing...2 pubs and a horrific nightclub. but had good laugh with the boys i met there..we were all in the same situation i.e. no money! created our own amusement and smoked a lot of weed. george the owner is not cool.
