    The location of the hostel is great, being close to the ocean and within easy reach of central places to visit. the staff is friendly and attentive, providing good service. the hostel has a large secured parking space and a nice garden, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

    The breakfast options were a bit limited, with some guests mentioning a lack of healthier options.

    The homey vibes at this awesome backpackers made it super easy to meet incredible people and have a blast. The accommodating staff went above and beyond, upgrading my room and helping with tours and recommendations. The location, just steps from the beach and a short walk to town, was unbeatable. The breakfast was simple but satisfying and the lounge area had a jaw-dropping view of the sea and epic sunsets. A mind-blowing experience overall!

    I had a great time at Skeleton Beach Backpackers. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and a new mall. The cozy and comfortable atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. I met so many wonderful people during my stay, which made it even more enjoyable. The staff was friendly and helpful, always making sure I had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend this place for a fantastic stay.

    The property was clean and the beds were comfortable, providing a good night's sleep. The location was great, being close to the beach, allowing for easy access and enjoyable walks along the shore. the staff at reception were amazing, providing excellent service and even taking me on a city tour, which was a fantastic experience.

    The sitting area upstairs had a bit of dust, which bothered me due to my dust allergy. the kitchen facilities seemed underutilized, with limited fridge space and not many options for storing dry ingredients.
