Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
Having stayed at a number of Ibis Budget hotels over the years, Knowing they are a cheaper accommodation I wasn’t expecting 5 star quality but at least expect a clean room and friendly staff. The only positive aspect was the price and location, Being $85 a night within walking distance of the Coffs Harbour CBD.
I liked that it was true backpacker style, pretty laid back, clean enough, flexible with bookings, good price, access to surfboards and kayaks. Great location.
Very cold fridge, ample space. Plenty of communal areas. Nice, friendly and accommodating host.
Its always relaxing and in a great location. A stroll to Diggers Beach, which is never too crowded and always pretty safe to swim at. Hit the pool as soon as it opens at 7am for a great start to the day.
I don't want to leave! Kehlauni and Ben make guests feel so welcome that it feels as much like a home as a holiday place. This is a lovely and well designed and appointed backpackers with sweet people and a gentle, chill environment that is restful and safe. Facilities are excellent and include a well cared for pool and BBQ. My room was clean and pleasant smelling and quite spacious too. Overall, this is the best hostel I have stayed in and I can't wait for the chance to holiday here again.
