Decent value

Surprisingly quiet down in an end room well away from the common areas. Internet patchy. Overall pretty decent facilities etc, and convenient for Cable Beach.

Great location can easy walk to beach. Hostel has lots of space for everyone. If you wanted to read or have some quiet time, you can find a quiet spot in a hammok under a tree. Hammoks everywhere was really nice and added to the relaxed feel to the place (hard to describe). Really friendly staff too and cleaning was very good. I would definately come back or recommend you stay there.

Entspannte Zeit am cable beach

Sehr schönes gemütliches Hostel , ich war Anfang März da und wir waren nur wenige Gäste , daher war es sehr entspannend und jeder kannte jeden. Ich kann nur empfehlen, am cable beach zu übernachten, da das Center nicht so schön ist..Der Strand hingegen ist der Wahnsinn! Die Mitarbeiter sind super freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Kann es nur empfehlen.

Ok if you need a cheap bed for the night.

I opted for a room, but it was really just a dorm with four beds. No chair or table in the room. Free Wi-Fi was very intermittent, did not work from the room. That said, staff were great, and their friendliness permeated throughout the facility. Other guests were friendly as well. I doubt I would stay at another backpackers again, because there was nothing inviting about the room. Great atmosphere though, with a bar on premises.

Plaża jak w bajce

W Broome wszystko jest drogie, ale najładniejsza jest plaza, do której z hostelu jest bardzo blisko. Hostel jest ładnie położony, ale jego mankamentem są mieszkańcy. Trafiłam na grupę brudasów.

We enjoyed staying at Cable Beach Backpackers. The room was ok, but not the most comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly.

It is a backpackers!

We checked in OK and they knew all about the booking, no problems. The room cost $89 a night and for a double room in Broome at the height of the season this is a good price, and it is a great positio very close to Cable Beach. It fulfilled our needs, a cheap nights stay in Broome, and the Corona beers were pretty cheap too. But don't expect it to be more than what it is, a backpackers!

2/10 Poor

モラルの無い若者ばかり。

モラルのない若者が大騒ぎ。11時30分以降は、静かに！と書いてありますが、注意しても守りません。おかげで、寝不足。旅を点々とする人にはお勧めできません。スタッフは、フレンドリーです。でも、帰りの飛行機に合わせた送迎はしてくれません。海は近いです。

Nice easygoing place

Stayed there for 4 nights in beginning of January. Had booked a female 4bed dorm. Was lucky to only have a roommate only one night so had the room all to myself, and the room also had a double bed so, score :p Close to the beach, awesome place such a chilled vibe. Hammocks around the place so plenty to just chill and swing. Staff were great, very friendly and happy people. The hostel offers so many free things I was amazed! Free airport pick up / drop off, breakfast, bus shuttle twice a day in to town. I'm already looking into going back to Broome in July and I d definitely stay there again :)

You get what you pay for

Excellent service, ambience and levels of service are well in line with what you could possibly pay for a backpacker accommodation. I expect to keep booking with them on my next BROOME stints.

Close to beach and bus stop into town.

as the office is not maned all day they requested you phone in advance with your arrival time. This I did but when we arrived we found that no one would be in the office for about another two hours. We left and went elsewhere until we could go back and book in, not all that satisfactory. Why didn't they just say, "office open times are...." Then we wouldn't have had all the running around.
