This is one of the best hostels in Australia. I stayed in the guesthouse which is a separate building across the road from the main hostel with it's own facilities - all sparkling new. But I also got to use the communal facilities in the main hostel building which were also pretty good and the atmosphere was great. Staff were very helpful too.
