can't believe anyone would "recommend" this place!!! Yeah, it was cheap, we didn't expect much and I have stayed in some pretty dodgy places in my time but seriously? first of all, when we arrived, they had made a mess of our booking so instead of a 6 bed apartment (which we were assured we would have to ourselves -... more

Firstly, for any that don't realise, as me and my girlfriend didn't, this hostel is linked with the Banana Bungalow, which is down the street...

Not only are the double rooms with ensuite only $52, but they are also HUGE with balcony and cable television! The hotel provides a breakfast... more
