Great overnight stay at Ozzie Pozzie. Room was clean, and beds were really comfortable. Great location, and there’s a small car park (or plenty of parking on the street). Will definitely stay here again on our trips from Sydney to Qld.

Very good experience at Ozzie Pozzie Backpackers - YHA. The managers were friendly and gave good advice. We are a couple, so we took a private room, and it was very clean and cosy. In addition, there is a lot of entertainment such as a pool table, table tennis, swimming pool, TV room and much more! I highly recommend it!

This is convenient accomodation to stay with friendly staff and amenities one would need for a home away stay. Only thing disappointing is i booked a fan room but was given a room without a fan and no reception staff after 7:30pm.. so it was a long night trying to get a good sleep.

Easy to organise a late night check in with the key and a map to the room left for us. We had a double room which was small but good size bathroom, good shower. Can get noisy if people don’t respect the signs for quiet after 11. Good kitchen and facilities and really helpful friendly staff.

My single room had a comfortable bed, a chair and a shelf with enough space for my needs. The ceiling fan was quiet and powerful. The shared bathroom was always clean during my stay. There are 3 single rooms sharing that bathroom so access was never a problem and I barely saw or heard the other occupants. The kitchen and dining areas were always clean with all that I needed. Staff were friendly and welcoming. There are not a lot of on-site parking spots but it was never hard to find one. The on-street parking was free, unrestricted and not crowded if needed.
