  After reading all the reviews I was quite deflated when I arrived. I wondered what all the fuss was about. Clearly, I was wrong or maybe I was there at the right time and met the right people.
  
  The rooms are clean and spacious considering most hostels would shove an extra couple beds in where possible. But here a 6 or 5 bed room would have enough room for anyone. All rooms are ensuite, even the dorms. My only concern was that there are no lockers.
  
  The building has been changed from a motel into a backpackers so there's facilities all over the place. TV rooms (nice), pool, volleyball​ court (game everyday at 6pm) and the bar.
  
  The hostel does put events on. A couple of quiz nights per week. Loved it! And a great laugh! I have to say, for this the people and staff made the night. One guest happened to be a fire juggler/spinner and was happy to give us a performance. Then this lead onto a talent competition. Lots of dancing and then someone climbed a coconut tree for a snack for the group. What a night! Maybe this was a one night off. No idea but I loved it!
  
  The hostel also offers a free uber Service to the transit center. Fantastic idea!
  
  My only concern was that 90% of the staff were backpackers working for accommodation. While this made my experience great and chilled, I felt that the hostel was getting free work out of many people. I have to question the work ethics of this when there are so many doing this. They clearly don't want to pay staff.
  
  Besides that awesome!!!
