The indoor beauty complements the outdoor beauty of the house. Everything is pleasing to the eyes and inviting, there is a great kitchen to cook meals and a large table to enjoy them, as well as outdoor sitting spaces. The bathrooms are stylish and the excellent local art pieces on the wall make the place homey. William, the owner, can tell you anything you want to know about the place and the surroundings, and Nicole who lives in the community up the hill is a great help. Stay a few nights, relax to the sounds of Hope River which flows below, hike up the road to a few waterfalls, book a table at the Pretty Close Ital restaurant nearby, and visit the art center at Papine.

This is the third time I stay here. The staff are like extended family at this point. They are amazing and kind and have looked after me and looked out for me in more then one way. They are currently doing a few renovations extending the space which will only add to an already awesome city hostel. I love the space. Super social. Always meet great people here. I love Kaya herb house and all of the music and vegan options in the back yard there. I will always recommend this place!

All hostels in Kingston

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I'm not usually staying in hostels, but I must say this place is great!! Once you close the curtain, you have a very private space. Each bed has a place where you can charge your electronics as well as a reading lamp. There is a kitchen where you can prepare your own meals. The staff is exceptionally friendly. I also love the coffee shop, which you can enter from the hostel. All in all, I had a great stay. In Kingston, this is by far the best budget option to stay.

    The Hostel is very central and cozy. The mixed dorm is spacious, cool and the bunk bed curtains give welcomed sense of privacy. The staff are exceptionally helpful in guiding you on how to get around the island with both local & convenient travel options. They are so warm. Plus the Cafe' next door is pretty convenient too. Love the dream bowls and nyam n scramble wraps. Such a great place to stay and meet like-minded travelers.

    Cool hostel, good location in Kingston, New Kingston is quite safe. Comfortable beds and they have a bar if you need to get breakfast though it's not included. Really friendly and helpful staff. We only stayed one night but would stay again. WiFi is good.

    Great location (not much to do around the hostel but the area is really safe), great staff, great place to meet other solo travelers, and probably the best dorm you'll ever stay at.
