    It was one of the most fine views I have ever had while preparing meals. The clean rooms and bathrooms added to the overall positive experience. the location of the hostel was perfect, just a short 5-minute walk to the ski shuttle bus and only 3 minutes away from the famous Fergburger. The atmosphere was great, and I enjoyed meeting new people, but also appreciated the quiet and peacefulness inside my room.

    I booked the private double room and it was worth the extra money. I booked room 280 and it was located in the corner of the building metres away from the water with great views.

    Being a backpackers and centrally located, it can get a bit noisy so bring your ear plugs.

    The value for money was great, and the room exceeded my expectations. The location was excellent, with fine views of the lake, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    Breakfast items could have been more varied and diverse.

    I loved the fridge and tv in our room, I loved the shower (stainless steel floor rocks and is very nostalgic of 80s childhood!), the cleanliness and roominess of of our twin ensuite, the views of the lake, and the extra power points provided. The location was ideal for proximity to town and waterfront. The staff were amazingly helpful and made our stay a real pleasure.

    The lift breaking down on the day we checked out, but that was no- one's fault, just one of those random things.

    The receptionsts are very helpful and nice, also pretty and handsome :) We chose a room which has a private showerroom, TV sets and microwave are good in use. Room is small but clean, and our room has windows can see the beach view.

    A little bit noisy, but acceptable. as the room is just face the lake, so bars and resturants around. If have hair dryer will be better

    We loved staying here. It's so central and has an incredible view from the kitchen area. You can see the lake right from here, it's amazing! The staff were really helpful and always had a smile on their face. Our room was clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated the ironing facilities and sitting area. We also loved the shared kitchen, it had everything we needed.

    The staff were extremely helpful. Although we were travelling with our 21yr olds and their partners, the staff treated us as one of the gang. The accomodation-position, position, position!!. Peak season with a view for $125/night-fantastic.

    The view from the kitchen is breathtaking, and the free WIFI was a great perk during my business trip. the staff was helpful and friendly.

    The noise from other guests made for a very disturbed sleep. the lack of parking was frustrating and meant a long walk to find a spot for my car.
