Far cheaper than other accommodation
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Truly a unique, enjoyable experience.

We enjoyed out short stay at the Arts Factory. Friendly staff and the vibe in the property was surreal. Definitely a great place to stay for young folks and young at heart.
Laurence, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst place ever

It smelled like weed everywhere and they played loud music, that made it impossible to sleep

Absolutely amazing. Can't recommend enough.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

My first experience at a backpackers - enjoyed the vibe and the staff were super helpful. The cafe has excellent coffee (that’s coming from a Melbourne coffee snob) and breaky at affordable prices.
Jacqui, 3-night trip

Loved the different atmosphere it was fun and will be back
Kerri, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

A really cool hostel but unfortunately a few areas letting them down. The staff are great, welcoming and helpful. The hostel itself is a super fun space. Super cheap and affordable. And a near spot to Byron. However it does not attract the best guests. We found people did not respect the space or other guests. The kitchen area was disgustingly dirty. The 10pm noise curfew was ignored and the pod next to us raved with loud speakers until 2am when we had to personally tell them to turn their music off, after they had been told off by staff several times previously with no consequences enforced. The travellers were generally unfriendly and hostile, which is a shame as could be a brilliant vibe like other hostels if they could implement some new rules or stand up for the place and enforce them.
Rosa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fantastic loved everything and would stay again! Only had one issue - needed cleaner toilets / bathroom

8/10 Very good

A good stay with reasonable price. Good location if you go there by coach. Have own lounge. You can drop your bags before check-in and after checkout. Staffs are nice.
WING YAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was great. Highly recommended. Will return. Toilets could be cleaner as my only gripe.
Luciano, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Helpful staff, vibrant atmosphere,

Helpful efficient reception staff, helping me to find a bed in different rooms for the remaining three nights when I had problem with the room for the first night. Vibrant atmosphere, with some organised daily activities. Bed was fairly comfortable. Toilet and shower were tidy and reasonably clean.
Clara, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cozy hostel

I really like the vibe at Arts Factory Lodge! It is a beautiful, cozy, friendly and artsy place with a lot of young backpackers. It can get a bit loud at times but there is loads of space and a big kitchen fitting many chefs at one go. Also loved the morning yoga! The dorms only have one ceiling light, no individual lamps or power sockets and the wifi isn’t very good in the rooms. But all in all it was a good stay!
4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dirty kitchen, dirty and stinky room, dirty fridge, noise and loud people, no control by the staff, people smokes on kitchen and dining area. Terrible stay. its owned by nomads.
Fabian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The toilets could be cleaned a bit more - not sure how often they were but it doesn't take much for them to get grubby being a backpackers
Robert, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hostel with good vibes, the room was perfectly clean, quiet during the night, the bathrooms were ok, the shared kitchen is big, well equipped and pretty clean ! Very hippie vibes, a little bit to much for me but it’s very personal :)
Mathilde, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Everywhere was dirty and unclean. Got bitten in the night.

8/10 Very good

Everything was excellent, the painting was lovely, apart from a small down side which was that the property was not sound proof and it was very noisy at night.
Rui, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Kitchen dirty and not much kitchen utensils and all in bad condition. The beds in the teepee didn't have blanket so it was cold to sleep. Noisy.
