    The room was nice and clean. There presence of only one shower/toilet has never been an issue (not sure if we have been lucky or if it works very well ;). Bbq was nice and the laundry machine works also with card (big plus for us). Thanks

    Nothing

    I would come back to Cairns just to stay here. Loads to do out and about and great to come back to chill out in the relaxed and creative atmosphere.

    Lovely little hideaway, perfect for train station, otherwise a bit of a stroll into city. Staff friendly, efficient, and helpful (carried my heavy bag up the stairs.

    We had a great stay in Dreamtime hostel! It was Exactly what we needed! A quite, beautiful, calm place to have a longterm stay as we work around Cairns. The rooms and all the common areas are always clean! The staff is great! Helpful and friendly! The vibe is so relaxing that is the place you want ro return after work. Next to Cairns central that you can find supermarket and any kind of stores. We highly recommend this place! 10/5 stars!

    Friendly manager, self contained kitchen and freezer.

    Still noisy kitchen aftet 10pm cut off time. Cleaners making noise with garbage bins in evening outside window with just wooden slats. Late check in people making lot of noise. Can’t get good night sleep.

    Property response:

    Thanks for your review of Dreamtime. As the zen-master of hostels, our 10pm kitchen noise curfew is all about peace and quiet vibes! Sorry about the cleaners clanging those plastic bins, though it’s a bit of a pickle! We’re damned if we don’t clean (sparkle-hungry guests!) and damned if we do (noisy bins!). Hostels are like a big, fun sleepover, so a little chatter or rustling is part of the charm. If you’re chasing absolute silence, you might need to splash out on a fancy hotel—probably at four times the price of our budget-friendly beds!

    Really nice spot! I stayed in one of the private rooms and it was clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly. The hostel is about a 15-20 minute walk from the esplanade, with a few restaurants and bars even closer. It was quiet and a nice spot to base myself for diving and exploring the Cairns area.

    Paul and Tim were so helpful and so kind. My room was a small single room. Nothing fancy, but comfortable and I slept well. It was pretty quiet. The bathrooms and kitchens are well kept. There are several outdoor and covered sitting areas and a pool. Washers and Dryers! ($4 or $5 a load ea. Wash or dry) AC takes $1 coins but I did not need to use it. Very good at recycling and being environmentally aware. Close to grocery stores. About a mile walk to Reef Terminal and Marina. Easy to get to other places also. Definitely NOT a party hostel. Very quiet for polite people who need a safe place to stay. Fine for older singles who don't have mobility issues. I only slept there, took a couple showers, and did a load of laundry. It was all I needed.

    I could have used a writing desk , table or something like that in my room since there was no closet, but it was a pretty small room.

    Quiet, decent location (15/20 minute walk from lagoon). Comfy bed, friendly chilled vibe

    Nothing specifically! If I was being picky, a choice of more ceramic plates and bows etc. would be better (some of the plastic ones retained the flavour of previous things that had been heated up in them)

    Cute, artistic, plants, swimmingpool, kitchen, location. Would come back.

    Sole Things are old, can be replaced. Our room downstairs are smelling a bit, not enough air circulation.

    The staff was friendly and provided me with a towel and a travel charger.

    They gave me a very small room that wasn't really a room. The room had three doors, two of which were locked doors that led to other rooms.

    Great location, well equipped kitchen, clean rooms and facilities.

    If you get a room near the generator, it can be quite loud during the night
