Although there are better hostels out there, we had a fun stay at Narrara. Mo and Irene were both very nice and made the stay so much better. Location is a tad bit far from everything but it's a very nice neighbourhood.

The hostel was clean and staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a little noisy but that is to be expected at a hostel. The kitchen was good and other guests were great to visit with.
