They say you get what you pay for, but that's not the case if you book the Snowy Mountains Hostel. The website advertises a public bar, bistro, and pool table, but none of those were available during our stay. They say there's an indoor pool but we couldn't find it. We would have asked reception where the pool was, but it wasn't manned, at all (the website said it would be). There was a sign at reception that said "call this number if there's no-one at reception" but no-one answered (well someone did eventually). The website says they have WIFI, and they do, but only in the sad, lonely unmanned reception area. The TV didn't work. The rooms were dirty and dated. The bed was uncomfortable and the linen looked dirty. There were only 2 power points, I had to unplug the heater to boil the kettle. Overall I can't express strongly enough how much I hated this hostel.

Our room located below dormitory rooms full of school kids. Lots of noise transfer into our room. It took 20minutes after turning shower on to get hot water,

2/10 Poor

Terrible place to stay for the price. Haven't seen anything worse than this Australia. Rooms were most likely constructed in early 20th century and zero modernisation took place since then. There wasn't even a single chair or stool to sit on. So, basically you either have to be in your bed or stand up all the time. They didn't even bother to put 2 bottles of water. No kettle or tea bags, no toaster, no microwave and just nothing at all. You are basically paying for the bed only. Bathroom door was broken and waving in the air. No wifi and breakfast was terrible as well. Restaurant chairs were steel chairs which perhaps were cleaned month ago. At $350 per night I'd give it 0 rating if that was possible.

6/10 Good

Location is excellent but, be warned this is more for backpackers or big grps with a low budget. Bunk bed/dorm rooms. Very old furnishings, obvious daily HK is not staffed. Dust in rooms. Breakfast is army mess style. Scrambled eggs (cold), bacon, tinned mushrooms. Food leftover is saved for the next day. They would survive if in a city, food hygiene is obvious. Service needs to improve, show care and a fresh continental breakfast cooked fresh would suffice. The bistro/whole centre is 70's decor needing a refresh. Suggest a refurb the owner needs to step it up. Lack of interest can be seen througout the venue and staffs demeanour. ONLY positive hot water for showers. Would not return again unless some changes occured.

I booked & paid for my accommodation on line,as instructed by the staff member I spoke to. Upon arrival,I was told my booking hadn’t come through from Wotif & they’re we’re not rooms available. I was basically told bad luck & try ringing some other properties in Jindabyne,to which I had no luck,& was left having to sleep in our car. I’m still yet to receive a refund & an apology,very disappointing.

8/10 Very good

Staff were polite and helpful even though they were very busy. Room was clean and tidy and most importantly it was warm. This is budget accommodation that is close to the snow and gives families an affordable option to enjoy the snow.

The sauna they advertised was out of order. The pool was cloudy and dirty with damaged board across the sauna. The room was terrible. The curtain was vroken on one window there wasn't a curtain on the other so the outside light ahone straight onto my pillow and kept me awake all night.

4/10 Fair

Probably the worst customer service I've experienced. Check in was late & staff member just casually laughed it off. A guest was berated for asking for an extra piece of toast. Our television didn't work. The one dinner we ate from there was lukewarm when it came out and the dining room was cold and dark. We decided to leave a night early as our house was a couple of hours away & we had finished our snowplay early enough. I wouldn't go back there
