Great atmosphere
Courtney, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Perfect stay. Nice staff, friendly community, very clean place just like a hotel. We also saw a bonus live band one night. The kitchen was very useful and fun to use. Thanks for the great accommodation.
Trucmy, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We had the family room with a private bathroom. It was very new and clean. The shower was a little tricky though as the curtain did not go all the way down to the floor so water can easily get out. Also, it would be even better if there's a desk in the room. The two small stools were not enough for the 4 of us to put our stuff. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

this place is pretty far from restaurants but our main priority was to have a safe place to sleep for 1 night before we continued on our journey and it was perfect for that. they have a great common lounge that looked stocked with games, but we were so tired from hiking and driving all day that we didnt get to use this. there are lots of great and funky art pieces on the property and paints on the walls. thank you for a great stay!
Marianne, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Very unique. We stayed in one of the new rooms which was nice except the shower was very tiny. They should have just left the curtain off and it would seem like more space. Also no place to put shampoo etc in the shower. Lots of outlets in the room which was great
Pam, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Really enjoyed the stay and the rooms where spot on too.
Mark, 1-night trip

Solid place to stay in an area with lots of drivable sites
Alan, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Since this is a hostel, they have shared bathrooms which I didn't realize while booking. They also have some rooms with attached bathroom. When we got there to check in the person there told us there were some repairs going on and there was no hot water. We decided to find a different place and she mentioned she will contact the manager to get us a refund as no one was available. I contacted them from the booking site a day later and they refused to give a refund. Overall the place is decent and lady who showed us the room etc. was very nice but the management has been terrible and keep refusing to give us a refund of our booking even though its their fault.

Awesome place

This place is cool - a funky hostel on an awesome peninsula! The new expansion has amazing artwork and is very relaxing.
clare, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great artsy space in a small fishing village. Clean and has a usable kitchen area which is a big plus!

8/10 Good

Staying at the Freezer Hostel was unique. It had delightful art and provided an opportunity to meet people. We reserved a family room for 4 people and the double bed was really small for two adults. It was a great location to check out some if the sights in the National park.
Ameera, 1-night trip

It was ok! Great location but not clean.
Anar, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Close to attractions. Outside look was not good and dirty. Bathroom has only one dark color towel, doesn’t look clean. Bedsheet was dark color too.

6/10 Okay

가격대비 괜찮음

공연이 있는 날은 엄청 시끄러워요. 제가 있던 방은 좀 떨어진 곳에 있었는데, 안전한 동네라며 방에.잠금장치가 없더라구요. 청소 상태는 괜찮아요. Ultra noisy when they have a concert. There's no locker on your room door. Tidy.

This is a good value hostel for exploring the peninsula. We stayed in the Time Machine Room - which had 4 bunk beds in it. There are no lockers or privacy curtains, but the blackout curtains work really really well. They also provide some great 3M ear plugs for free. The kitchen is a good size and we were able to cook breakfast and dinner without fighting for space. Lovely huge common room which also doubles as a bar/live music venue/and hosts a theatre. Unfortunately nothing was on when we stayed (Mon/Tuesday night) but they do have events on Thurs/Fri/Sat. There were two bathrooms for the hostel, and I was worried about queuing but ended up having no issues at all using a bathroom when needed. Rif is a very small fishing harbour/village and there isn't really anything to do in Rif itself - you'll want to get out and about. Parking was easy.

6/10 Okay

Alternatieve accommodatie. Met deels splinternieuwe kamers met eigen badkamer. De kamers zijn zeer klein. Geen handdoeken. Koffie/thee is te betalen. Keuken met alle faciliteiten. Op zaterdag zijn er optredens in de zaal
