Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Right at the heart of Penguin! I was staying in August and there was barely anyone else staying the 5th e hostel so had the whole room for myself. Warm duvet and blankets as well as towels provided. Rooms were quite spacious with tables, chairs, shelves and cheater in. Kitchen was well equipped with a lot of fridge space. Really easy to drive up and around to other seaside towns.
Negative: Some men staying in were using ladies restroom and there was only luke warm water the first night (turned hot the next day tho!).
Summary: Fantastic location, reasonably priced
