Beds in dorm with privacy curtain were comfy. Wish there was more space to relax outside the dorm rooms - it’s either the kitchen/dining room or the upstairs room, which doesn’t have enough couches for people to sit. Bathrooms were ok - should be more shelving or something for people to put their toiletries on as the 3 sinks in the bathroom hall were frequently occupied, so people kept having to leave because they couldn’t use the sinks. Otherwise good for maximum 2 night stay. ##### Michelleanne Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren 30 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities So clean, great facilities, amazing views of the lake and quiet ##### Lauren Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eming 3 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendliness of check in staff, well kept property, good heating and fantastic location ##### Eming Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Goh 9 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location and easy parking, also a good common kitchen and comfortable beds and warm toilet to use during winter. ##### Goh Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lakshmi 24 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Best place to stay for quiet time and lake view. ##### Lakshmi Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yi Wan 25 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Clean rooms and comfortable stay. There was a large group of students staying the same night and as a result there were not enough seats to eat dinner. Even the second floor lounge area was full and some had to sit on the ground to eat. ##### Yi Wan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### A 10 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hostel is very close to the InterCity bus stop. The receptionist gave me some good information about where to see the stars at night.
