Jollyboys Backpackers

Beautiful place with the most friendly and helpful staff. I initially booked 3 night but ended up staying a week, extension was no biggie. great western food, massive portions in mad quality!!! decent priced, refreshing pool, sports broadcast and loads of activities and events like free family dinner. Facilities are good for value for money. You‘ll love it here!

Stayed here with a school trip. My room was really good, shared bathroom facilities. Dorms were clean and ideal for my group of pupils. Communal areas were great for chatting and playing games. Food was really good and they were able to accommodate all of our group’s dietary requirements. Thank you for a fab stay, I’d love to return soon,

I'll give it a 5 rating, but it's based on numerous visits in the 90's before the move. Had some memorable times. The table tennis under the big mango tree and the barman that had one arm or was that somewhere else. It's all a haze going 30 years down the line. Not sure it would suit an old geezer like me now.

It’s a nice social hostel since it’s pretty popular with other backpackers, it’s easy to meet people, it’s $17/night with a bar and a pool, dorm bed is comfy and there’s a power outlet next to it and a light. Hot showers and food is good. Only negative is the I wish there was a mosquito net, when the sunsets those guys are everywhere and even with the door being closed at night a few got in

I can't recommend it. Someone went to our room twice during the same day when we were out of the room and they left the lock open. A hundred dollars was stolen from my wallet. That was on our second day and we had booked 8 nights... so that was it what comes to the feeling of being safe, appreciated, welcome and respected. The manager offered us some upgrades as a compensation but this really felt so bad and partly ruined my trip. It was a disgusting thing to do! Pros: - nice pool area and a bar with food and drinks with good prices - free transport from the airport and to the falls - delicious mangos everywhere - manager offered some compensation after the theft Cons: - spiders, mosquitos and lizards in the room. - we got bitten, probably bedbugs - rooms are not safe - the attitude of the staff is not purely heavenly customer service
