A great place to stay - affordable, friendly, super helpful owners Nikki and Gary. A homely, welcoming atmosphere. There's a piano in the shared dining room, a lovely spa pool and access to everything you need in the kitchen. I'll be back!
Quirky accommodation (converted caravan) which wasn't what I was expecting. Friendly, helpful staff. Distance from bathroom facilities a bit of an issue during the night. Very noisy with loading/unloading from the wharf - especially on a still night. But for $80 a night one has to be pragmatic.
This was an amazing place to stay at! The staff were very kind/friendly, the spa was wonderful after a long day, and the fresh-baked scones for breakfast were to die for!
A fabulous well run hostel full of interest and fun. Lots of communal rooms and gardens. Basic bikes to borrow for free and so we saw more of the area. 10/15 min walk into town. Home baked scones for breakfast.
