I definitely recommend this hostel! It's in a great location, close to everything. The rooms and the kitchen were clean. You can relax in two common areas and it really feels like the second home. I stayed there for 3 months or so, I didn't really count my days, but i could never complained about anything. And Dean and his family are very friendly, just to let you know Thank you!

Admin reply: Hi Stephanie hope the rest of your trip goes well and thank you for such a nice recommendation looking forward to seeing you again all the best dino

One of the best hostels we have stayed in - very clean with excellent facilities and friendly staff. Very chilled with good atmosphere. The hostel is in a great location and only 10 mins from the ferry. We would definitely stay here again...just hope the next hostel is as nice.....

Admin reply: Happy to hear it and have had a great time here. Hope the rest of your holiday in Australia is as pleasent.

Helloe there, I will be coming to Australia next month, I was wondering if you accept blacks as I will be with my friend Jamal and I've heard a lot of places in regional Australia don't like darkies.
Can you let me know if you accept coloured people, we will understand if we can't stay in the same dorm as you may have one for whites and one for negros.

Admin reply: Not sure where you come from, but in Australia you may find your self getting the crappers beaten out of your saying derogatory things about people while in Australia. You may be well be advised to stay where you are or change your attitude.

What a nice hostel! We were really enthusiastic of it. We had worked in Townsville and stayed for 2 months in the reef lodge. It was like home-feeling.
The rooms, kitchen and outside area are clean. The kitchen have a great facility.
The different levels provide for a relaxing atmosphere.

Thank you for the great Christmas BBQ



Admin reply: Hi Guys hope you had a nice Christmas and have a great trip and glade you enjoyed your stay here.

Reef Lodge is a bit different from usual hostels, I thought. It's clean and very nice (though some of the rooms have no aircon, but this is advertised clearly) and the rules about alcohol and noise are actually enforced for a change! Unfortunately, this doesn't necessarily mean a quiet night, since you're literally right next to Townsville's party street, and noise does bleed over. They have a clever system to keep the kitchen clean: there's camera surveillance. It helps moderately, but we're still talking about a hostel kitchen of course, they're never completely clean. All in all a good stay, though I was missing a pool a little bit. And they don't keep luggage for you after check-out, you have to leave it in a common area. Might look for a different hostel next visit to Townsville.

Admin reply: Thank you for the comment. I only have 1 dorm that doesn’t have a/c which is my budget room, all the rest have a/c. As for luggage storage we have had many problems with looking after bags, so much so I purchased a $20,000-00 set of lockers. These are in our reception for people to store their bags, allowing people to come and go as they please. They are also much safer choice for valuables and only $2 for a large locker for very BIG backpacks and $1 for the smaller lockers for wallets cameras and notebooks. There is a common area people can leave thier bags and is overlooked by a camera, but as I say this is at your own risk. The street noise can at times be a bit noisy but we are in the city centre. As for the kitchen, what can I say that you haven’t already said? This system works quite well with the camera, but only if you keep an eye on what is happening and remind people about the security deposits. In all most people are good but there are always the minority that don’t care about the other people here. Have a nice trip in OZ.
