Is there such a thing as 'backpacker kitsch'? If so, this hulking
hostel probably qualifies, with dubious marketing relating to 'bad girls' and what they do
and don't do…But if you're looking to party, you're in the right place. There's a great
pool and bar area, and rooms are basic but generally well maintained.

An enormous white Queenslander (actually, a couple of buildings) with
more than 50 rooms and a very laid-back vibe. Cheap, casual and grungy: not for the per-
nickety.
