Flashpackers was an unexpected find. The proximity to the action in Noosa was handy and it allowed me to better explore a side I'd overlooked before. It was far enough removed to allow for some rest too- heck, I even had the room to myself for the last night! Likee the laundry around the back and the clothesline. Also the clean and orderly fridges in the kitchen area. Clean clothes and food either make or break a trip away, I find. The seated area just near that was cosy too- I do like a bit of solitude! Some hostel kitchen areas can be a bit manky. Not Flashpackers though, for the most part. Sure, common etiquette wasn't always strictly observed, but that's a given.It wasn't hard to restore some cleanliness, if you get my drift. The various activities organised for backpackers too (Bingo, meals etc.) were great mediums for getting to know fellow travellers. Was nice to be able to mingle with people and hear their stories. It was remarkable how the conversation just ebbed and flowed. And what an interesting bunch! Gals from Spain, Germany, Holland, Edinborough & Byron Bay; fellows from the UK, Brisbane & Argentina! This was just after my visit to Sydney too where at the YHA I bunked with three chaps from Japan, India & Thailand respectively. So whilst it didn't pan out quite the way I'd anticipated I am still delighted in hindsight. I won't be no stranger!

Simply the best!

So far one of the best hostels in Australia! Staff are amazing, cleanest hostel I’ve been to here, and their events are all great. The free shuttle is appreciated. Beds are very comfy and there was a light, outlet, and shelf by the bed! The holy trinity of hostel amenities. And free breakfast. I don’t know what else a backpacker could ask for!
