The Backpackers staff

The staff were amazing...

"...they gave great suggestions and were so helpful with all the little and not-so-little mishaps. The location is great and having the Flybus drop you in front of the hostel is a plus. However, the place gets pretty loud so I recommend earplugs. I would definitely stay here again!" (Hostelworld review, 14. March 2010).
