I paid for the $21 Jacuzzi Room with balcony. The jacuzzi was dirty, I assume the cleaners have a drink before they clean the room. There was no hot water from the shower either, so in hindsight, I should have got the basic room. The restaurant & bar downstairs is a hangout for working girls, who linger around your table... More

This is a review of the rooms and not the bar downstairs so the price of the beer is not relevant. The corridors and stairs have the original carpets from when the place opened 12 years ago. Not good. The room itself was as clean as it could have been under the circumstances but not actually clean. The air-con kinda... More

I spent two nights at the Walkabout Hotel - October 20 and 21st. I stayed in an $18 double room with balcony. The room had TV, fridge, air-con and private bathroom. Everything worked, and the bed was very comfortable. The furniture was old and run-down. The room was OK for me, but many people would have described it as cheerless... More

Unfortunately cant remember the name of it. Staff were very eager to help and spoke good English. All kinds of friendly travellers and charming locals hanging out here. Recommend the... More

The room rates are on the low side so you cannot expect too much but it is a bit ropey, I had chosen one of the higher priced rooms but I checked out after one night. The stairs up to the rooms are not a good start and the room itself had a worn out bed and was small despite... More

A horrible smell originates from the toilets underneath the long stairway up to the rooms, it almost made me barf up my dinner. Downstairs is a large number of prostitutes, hawking their deals. The location is excellent and near major venues, but I recommend looking elsewhere for a good nights sleep. Prices are low for the rooms, but in line... More
