L’hostel est très bien situé, à côté de la plage, des restaurants/bar et des boutiques. Les chambres sont très propres, les lits très confortables et cuisine est super bien équipée. Ils proposent de nombreuses activités gratuite le matin et le soir. Je recommande vraiment cet hostel, je m’y sentais tellement bien que j’ai prolongé 2 nuits de plus que prévu.

I had an amazing stay at your hostel in Byron Bay, it’s honestly the best hostel I’ve ever been to and exceeded all my expectations. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, and it’s easy to feel comfortable right away. The location is perfect, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. What really stood out to me is how thoughtful and well-designed everything is. From the great common areas and spacious kitchen to the attention to detail in every room, nothing feels overlooked. AMAZI...

Such a great hostel, it's an easy walk from where the greyhound drops you off, the best part of the hostel was the location your right near the beach with loads of food options and places to shop around it. The shared rooms have a big bathroom and a good amount of storage and was very clean. They also have a nice and quite outdoor area where you can chill in the evenings if you don't want to go to the upstairs bar or hang in the kitchen.

Die Küche braucht eine Grundreinigung und neue Töpfe. Die Badezimmer werden nicht ordentlich gereinigt. Mein Zimmer war schön und die Lage ist toll. Das Personal war lieb aber müsste genauer reinigen.

One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed at! Best location of all the hostels in Byron imo. The kitchen was also very open to make it feel less crowded. Not a big party vibe but they did have fun activities each night that were chill.

fantastisch hostel: lieve staff, de locatie is dichtbij supermarkten, winkels en het strand, de bedden zijn comfortabel (helaas wel met zand)+ een gordijntje, douches en toiletten zijn schoon, surfboard of boogyboard te leen, grote en schone keuken met genoeg opbergruimte :)

Beste Hostel in Byron! Centraal gelegen, je staat in 2 minuten op het main strand en bij de surfschool. Verder is het hostel superschoon! Keuken is echt heel schoon en netjes. Heel ruim opgezet ook, en er was altijd ruimte om te koken. De kamers zijn top en de bedden ook. Gordijntjes en stopcontacten in de bunks. Douches ook prima en genoeg aanwezig. Ook de sauna en ijsbad zijn schoon en top. Rooftopbar is gezellig en goed om nieuwe mensen te ontmoeten.

Camera e bagni puliti, i letti hanno delle tende. Clima rilassato e gradevole. Bello che si possano prendere le tavole da surf gratuitamente. A due passi da tutto quello di cui si possa necessitare. Aggiungerei più stendi panni in balcone.

one of the best hostel I‘ve ever been to, the staff was so so nice, everything super clean and a big kitchen. Also enjoyed the sauna and ice baths a lot. We also rented surfboards, which was a really nice extra. The only minor issue was that my surf leash kept coming off because the Velcro was worn out. I would love to come back!!
