When my husband and I were traveling Australia's east coast we spent one night at Townsville's Civic Guest House and were surprised by what we got for our money. We stayed in a private double and although it was furnished very basic we liked it all lot since it was super clean, bright and seemed very well maintained. Just before... More

would definitley recommend staying here. Staff really nice, chatty and friendly. free pick up from greyhound bus. really clean. free tea and coffee all day. free wifi in common area, we couldnt get it in bedroom or kitchen area. Townsville just ok but if stopping over would definitely recommend ere.

Turned up late at night and as arranged the key had been left in a lockbox outside the building, with instructions to my room and other details.

Not a bad place to stay, we shared a four bed dorm ensuite. Kitchen big enough, clean enough. No issues, apart from they could do with another firdge. Very friendly couple running the place.

There are some jokes included when you get picked up by the Greyhound. Very clean rooms and doubles for under 60$ is just... More

The staff is great and realy helpfull. They gave us free transfer to the terminal and a lot of good insider tips for Magnetic Island. If you are using Townsville as a transit to get out to Magnetic I defenately recomend staying here.

Stayed here for one night. Hostel was very clean and staff was very friendly. The only downside is that the free wifi was only working in certain places. However it was free after all :-) Highly recommend this hostel

All we really needed for a one night stay. Clean rooms and friendly staff, free pickup from the bus stop and arranged a... More

I was travelling for 2 months around Australia, Northern territory and East coast and this is certainly the best hostel I stayed in. Extremely friendly staff, super clean, nice location, cozy and spacy at the same time, big kitchen, nice rooms, I stayed in a dorm and then in a private room, both of the top. They even have free...
