Edmund
I recently stayed at a charming hotel that exceeded my expectations. the value for money was outstanding. The prices were very affordable for such a central location next to the city center. Secondly, the attention to detail was impeccable. I was pleasantly surprised by the basic amenities provided, including a fan in the room, comfortable mattresses, and a double bed. Lastly, the breakfast offered was satisfying and a great way to start the day.
All in all, my stay at this hotel was fantastic and I couldn't find anything that needed improvement.

Value for money: This hotel offers excellent value for money, with spacious rooms and basic amenities at an affordable price. Location next to the city centre: The hotel's convenient location, just a stone's throw from the shopping centre and the station, is perfect for exploring the city. Friendly staff: The staff, especially Jim and Shay, were extremely helpful and provided great advice on things to do in the area.
Minor inconvenience with insects, but understandable given the tropical setting.

Nothing to dislike.

Location is convenient as it is just across from a shopping mall and close to the railway station. It is outside of the lively center of the city, providing a peaceful atmosphere. the hostel’s guided tours can easily be booked at the front desk.
The kitchen is quite small and lacking in pots and pans.

Great staff, very friendly and helpful. the rooms were spacious and clean. the location was convenient, close to the train station and mall. the courtyard was beautiful and provided a natural feel.
The noise levels were quite high, with people yelling and slamming doors late into the night. the location was not in the main part of town, and walking through the mall and parking lot at night felt a bit weird.

During my recent stay at Dreamtime Travellers Rest, I was impressed by the friendly and helpful staff. They were always available to assist me with any questions or concerns I had. The atmosphere of the hostel was also great, with a quiet and chilled vibe while still allowing for social interactions. The location was convenient, being close to a main mall and within walking distance of the Reef Fleet Terminal. One situation that stood out to me was when I needed assistance with organizing my trips and excursions. The staff took the time to discuss various options with me and helped me book everything smoothly. They were knowledgeable about the tours and the area, making the process much easier for me. Additionally, I appreciated the themed nights at the hotel, which provided a good variety of options for entertainment.

I recently had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was fantastic, with shops and the city center right nearby. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel right at home. The rooms were cozy and comfortable, with a double bed and a fan to keep me cool during the warm nights. I was pleasantly surprised by the attention to detail, as the hotel provided me with a comfortable mattress and even offered extra pillows when I requested them. The breakfast provided was delicious and a great way to start the day.
Everything was great!

Friendly staff, nice artwork, and good location near shops and transportation. the common areas are well-maintained, including the kitchen and the bathrooms. the hostel also offers complimentary towels and shampoo, which was a nice touch. It's a great place to stay if you're looking for a budget option in a convenient location.
the noise level was very loud, with lots of rowdy guests that kept me up at night.

Magical place with attention to every little detail. Clean and suitable for those who want to relax. Different entertainment every night, all-you-can-eat pizza, movie night, and fire-playing lessons with didgeridoo. Perfect staff, they helped me organize tours and solve any problems. Free wifi with perfect connectivity. Good and clean bathrooms and rooms. Perfect kitchen and common area. Highly recommend to everyone.
Felt so much at home, no reason to complain.

This hotel has a great atmosphere, just like staying in a tropical rainforest. The friendly staff and cosy decorations create a sweet vibe that makes you feel at home. The location is also perfect, right next to a big shopping center but still quiet and peaceful.
All was fine, no issues to mention.

Friendly and helpful staff provided great tour information and tips for exploring the city. This hotel has a lovely pool, a nice homely vibe, and a great location. The hotel has a great breakfast place right next door and is very close to a large shopping mall, the supermarket, and the city centre. The hotel was clean with daily upkeep and provided many facilities for guests to use.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

I had the best time staying in this budget accommodation. It was located close to all the fun places like restaurants and bars around town, and I found it easy to get to the mall and markets. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful during my stay. Plus, the chill vibe was perfect for relaxation. I slept so comfortably with zero noise disruptions, and the room was kept secure all the time. Great value for money too!
The hostel was a bit of a walk to the main attractions of the city, which was not too much of an issue for me. However, if you want extra convenience and to stay where the action is, you might find it a bit far.
