I liked the warmth and friendliness of the staff, who set the tone for a welcoming ambience

  Customer Review on 21 March 2012 

I liked everything! From the warm and friendly atmosphere, to the warm and friendly employees and also the extremely roomy and comfortable beds! I only had a extremely short stay, but it was one of the finest nights I had. The employees were awesome! I will stay here again! This was my second stay in Hobart and I wish I stayed here the first time I came here!

  Customer Review on 4 March 2012 

The employees was so helpful and everyone was really friendly. There was always someone strumming on the guitar and people around having a excellent time. It&'s a small hostel, so it&'s really intimate along with the facilities are always available.

Awesome hostel - lovely staff, very friendly! Wonderful to come in from the cold Hobart weather to a roaring log fire & a huge pot of mulled wine! :) Mmmm!

Not for individuals who want some thing quiet, but if you like partying and drinking, this location is for you!

  Laura E. on 3 March 2010 

Overall, I really liked the hostel. The staff were pretty friendly and helpful and the bar creates a good atmoshpere for meeting people. Check before you book because whilst I was there the men's showers were ripped out and there were not many facilities for them. I saw some use the girl's bathroom (and didn't blame them); others had to use temporary cubicles in the car park. If I was a guy I would have been a bit pissed off. Also, there are a number of entrances so it's not as secure as you might like. Having said that, it's not too bad and I didn't have any issues - just worth being aware of.

I personally thought that The Pickled Frog was more suited to the younger crowd - I felt my age but soon got over it :) - that was there - we are in our 50's however, we enjoy the Backpacking type of holiday, we did the Trans Mongolian/Siberian Rail trip and Nepal - Himalayas and part of India with Peregrine/Gecko backpacking trips and enjoyed the experience immensely. Our room - The Fire Wardens room - had its own kitchen which we used and as such didn't get to meet any other travellers. I personally thought that the building needed some attention however, we both thought that our stay was worth the amount that we paid. The staff were helpful and friendly.

Do not go there. There are far better and less expensive places in Hobart
