Loved the classic hostel feel and intense walkability and beach access. The facility needs some repairs, but if you're young and traveling and need an inexpensive place, perfect. It's loud, but no more so than any other hostel experience. I felt a bit too old to be there at 29, but then again I'm fairly low key and wasn't keen on the party life.

Convienient location within a good walking distance to the ferry and beaches. Plenty of local shops to choose from to eat as well as local supermarkets. The front reception area is a bit tight for space. The staff at the front desk were always friendly, cheerful, and helpful. The building corridors, and stairways feel quite dark. There seems to be a good large space upstairs available to socialize.

Decent budget accommodation right on the Manly strip. Private room was reasonably large and comfy. However, it's an old building with poor soundproofing, so a fair bit of noise through the night.

Pros: Really good location and easy to use public transport around. Lots of good options for food. Very close to lots of cute beaches and walks. Cons: If you're a light sleeper do not recommend as its right near a pub that's noisy AF on the weekends. Markets on Saturday/Sunday start early too so can't really sleep past 7am. Strong local only bad vibes from longtermers. Messy shared kitchen space during breakfast that no-one cleaned as they used it.

Great location, needs a deep clean
This is a great base in Manly, the Corso facing rooms have some noise at night and the street cleaning machines start about 5.30 but earplugs should see to that. The kitchen and communal areas need a deep clean, the room was tired and dusty, but the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. You get what you pay for and by the amount of long-term guests it appears there are work opportunities. The free breakfast- cereal, toast, tea+coffee was welcome.

Hi Paula! We're happy to know you enjoyed the room! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. In response to your feedback, we did add a pair of cups per private room - thank you for bringing that detail to our attention. We're also reviewing our plumbing system to make sure everything's in working order! We hope to host you a next time to show our improvement! Have a wonderful week. Cheers!

Jose was such a helpful member of staff. I had a flat tyre on the highway on the way to the backpackers. I had to wait for roadside assistance for over an hour. Jose waited for me to arrive which was well after midnight. He helped me with directions and genuinely cared about my welfare. I slept well in my single room with my dou bed. It was a good stay. Thank you. Nicole

Easy going hostel!
Private room was very accommodating. Came with towels and shampoos. Bathrooms were right across the hall and easy to access. Check in was easy to work with and let us check in very late. Awesome room overlooking The Corso. Would recommend to those on a budget and who dont mind the hostel style of sharing. Would gladly come back!

I never got to stay in the property as I booked. Drove 50km to it just to be turned away due to poor management saying that there where no rooms available then was called to next day and asked why I hadn’t checked in yet, then in the next breath said they where full.. I would not recommend them at all

It is what is says - backpacker accomodation and a budget motel. You can’t beat the location, but I was not expecting the “motel” room to be without aircon, a fridge for milk etc and to have such a tiny bathroom. The doors to the midget balcony had a good street view and gave some relief from the heat but the noise from the pubs and corso lasted all night until the street cleaners arrived early am. Motto - read descriptions thoroughly- if you are young and want a friendly, funky backpacker vibe and great location this is the place - if you are over 30, need sleep and more than just a bed for the night, this isn’t the place.

Stayed there for two nights my in my mum, what a big mistake! The area is nice but very noise at night so we couldn’t sleep well. The place smells bad and is not clean at all! For the price I could have paid for a better place to stay, way too expensive for what you get!

Hi there, Thanks for your review. Sorry you did not enjoy your stay here with us. As we are a busy hostel located in central Manly - surrounded by bustling cafes, shops & restaurants - it can definitely be noisy here on a summer evening. We have recently undertaken a deep clean of the hostel and made some changes to our cleaning process and staff, which have left the place brighter then ever. Safe travels, Boardriders

More of a long term stay place for foreign workers than a backpackers hostel. Front desk was very nice, but room, shower, and kitchen were very dirty.
