After multiple stays, it gets better each time. It's a very welcoming and home-like atmosphere. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the rooms are nice and the location is really convenient. The amenities are great too and it very nice to meet fellow travellers.

A great hostel in a lovely town
Had a good stay at On The Wallaby. It's a well established hostel in a quaint country town. Good kitchen facilities and our room was comfortable. Possibly the best shower in a hostel I've ever experienced. There's parking opposite the hostel on the grass outside. Be aware there's limited reception hours, so plan your arrival appropriately.
