Darwins best Hostle
friendly stuff, clean rooms, good location
9.3
I really enjoyed my stay at the backpackers. The stuff was very friendly and helpful. The locations is central and common facilities are clean and comfortable. I enjoyed to lay at the pool as well as having a few drinks(great price) at night at the youth shack bar. I can highly recommend this hostel!!

Worst hostel EVER
There arent good things to say
2
A very dirty hostel, smelly everywhere, people trowing up in the bathroom, noisy, very arrogant owner a the reception. You have to pay for the key and for each set dishes, deposit your key to get any pans, ...
I traveled almost each continent and stayed in a lot of hostels; but this was 100 % sure the WORST hostel I ever stayed in. I really have nothing good to say about it.

Never again, room was okay but too much noise outs
a bed was there n someone was there to check us in at 1am in the morning
3.3
We couldn't sleep coz of the fighting of other patrons, disregarding other guests n slamming of doors. I didn't have a shower as it was dirty, cigarette butts every where n rubbish on the ground n the stench of alcohol n smoke was unbelievable. I will never stay there again

Centrally located in Darwin
good location, near shopping center/ restaurants / pub&bar
7.3
This hotel is centrally located in the heart of Darwin. There are many restaurants, bars around the hotel as well as shopping center, coles.You can also find many tourist agencies. It's easy to check in and check out. A tall guy at the reception is friendly&helpful. When I forgot a keygard and ask him for help, he didn't hesitate to unlock a room for me. My room is quiet eventhough a number of pubs and bars are around.

So noisy!
Location, large kitchen area
4.7
Hostel was probably below average. Stayed in a twin room which was clean but had to get rid f about 4 cockroaches upon arrival. This does happen though. Bathrooms and showers were not kept very clean. Probably more of an issue with other travelers than with the cleaning staff. However the showers/toilets were shut and cleaned in the mornings between 8 and 9 which is a crazy time to close them as so many people were waiting to use them at this time. Our biggest problem with the hotel was noise. Sign up saying kitchen area is closed after 10pm but nothing stopping people partying there till small hours of the morning. Our room was right outside the kitchen area so did not sleep well. Understand that other travelers agin are the problem here but do t understand why the hostel does not properly close off this area at night so people cannot access it. On the plus side the kitchen area is very large and a great space to cook in. Location was also great and was very central to everything.
