I arrived here for the easter weekend, and the place rates among the best hostels I've stayed in (still counting at 120+, so no mean feat).The hostel is relatively small and personable. I'd spent most of the night on the bus and when I arrived around 7.30 in the morning, I was immediately assigned a bed so I could sleep a little. The rooms were pleasant, and there is a seating area out back, as well as a kitchen with TV lounge area.This is a family owned hostel, and the owners are very pleasant and helpful. When I got up on easter sunday a basket of easter eggs had been put out for guests to help themselves to, which was nice. Jungle Johnno's tours to Eungella National Park run from the hostel, and I spent easter sunday on one of these. I really recommend this tour. Our guide, Charles, seemed to know everybody in the district, and there was not much he didn't know about everything we saw; we did some walks, platypuss and turtle spotting, boomerang throwing, and it all made for a memorable easter.Most people miss out Mackay which is a shame, so why not drop into larrikin Lodge and take one of their tours. You will be glad you did.

This hostel holds a special place in my heart: it's a great setting and the people opperating it are awesome. The rooms a very clean and the commune areas are very cosy and it made me fell like home. I had a great time staying there! I trully recommend it!

An old, rambling house, which is delightful to look at. You share dorms with quite a few others, but they are comfortable, and don't have the spartan feel of many hostels. The hosts are lovely, and happily dropped me at the airport the morning I left. I was only sorry I didn't stay longer to do some of the great tours on offer.
