Okay if you need a cheap bed, September 27, 2006

Reviewer: Regent Honeyeater from Canberra

Pros: Location great, boast & jetty wonderful, in a nice pub
Cons: The Hostel is a magnet to get you in to buy drinks

This is a YHA franchise & in quiet times the hostel is rooms in the heritage hotel Bompas. The hotel is legendary for its summer fun and scenic location close to fishing spots for the wonderful southern rock lobster but the hostel rooms are only just okay. There were no kitchen or lounge facilities, fridge etc. The bathrooms lacked adequate lighting and required maintenance: shower curtains coming off the wall and so on. I was disappointed and won't be back, which is a pity as I enjoy walking the great old jetty which is one of the longest in SA. If you are travelling in a group & just want a cheap bed & a fun night's drinking this would be a good choice, but not if your hostel standards are medium to high.
