Spent just the one night at this hostel on January 4th, with my girlfriend in a 4-bed mixed dorm. Advantages - the location is very good being near to the Roma St station and within the CBD. All of the main tourist attractions and services are within walking distance. Despite the fact that the hostel has it's own bar, the... More

Tinbilly Travellers is a dirty and impersonal backpacker ! The bathroom in the room was just terribly disgusting and the backpacker is not clean in the common area More

Having stayed in a number of hostels down the East Coast my friend and I thought we'd treat ourselves to a Diva Dorm in Tinbilly. We wonder now why we even bothered! We paid $38 a night for a 6 bed dorm and almost all the other people in the dorm were those who had paid for a normal 13... More

I stayed here on two separate occasions in November. My first stay was in a 4 person mixed dorm. All the rooms have an ensuite (which has it's advantages and disadvantages) and an air con unit. I loved that the room actually stayed cool and had air movement, unlike several other hostels I have stayed in. As with all hostel... More

I checked in for 3 nights and left my cell number on their form. The room was not especially clean and nothing seemed to work (i.e. the printer) but its a backpackers and you need to balance this against the budget of the girls/guys on the road. They threw my luggage out of the room the following day because they... More

The location was good and the room was clean, but the hostel seemed to lack any kind of atmosphere. The Reception girl who checked us in could not have been more unhelpful and uninterested. She could not recommend or even suggest anywhere nice that was nearby where we could get dinner and did not know what was going on at... More

Having stayed in a number of excellent hostels (all priced similar to, or lower than Tinbilklys) around Australia, we were shiocked at Tinbillys. The 8bed dorm barely had room for the 4 bunk beds, there was no space for backpacks and despite it being a non-smoking hostel, the haze of smoke from the dorm, and bathroom in particular was clearly...
