    I had an amazing stay at this 4-star hotel. The staff were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. They even helped me organize tours and gave me great recommendations for things to do in the area. The free pancake breakfast was a delicious and unique touch. It was so much better than just the usual toast and jam. I highly recommend this place to anyone in search of a luxurious and comfortable stay.

    This hotel is not a party hostel, but that's actually what makes it great. It has a peaceful and inclusive vibe, perfect for those who want to relax and be creative in their downtime.

    I absolutely loved the free pancakes in the morning at 1849 Backpackers! They were fantastic 😊 The kitchen facilities were well-maintained and it was easy to buy groceries from the nearby supermarket. The location in town was very convenient, especially since public transport in Albany is close to nonexistent.

    Great location right in the heart of town, convenient for exploring and accessing main roads. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, especially when it came to organizing tours. The free pancake breakfast was a delicious and enjoyable start to the day.

    The room was a bit cramped and had a musty smell, with old and faded bedding. The bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were horrible.

    Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The free morning breakfast was so nice. It felt very comfortable and like a home away from home.

    Got a little bit loud sometimes, very echoey but then again it was an older building.

    The atmosphere here was so relaxed and friendly, with fellow travelers of all ages showing respect towards each other. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. The hotel had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, from the brand new innerspring mattresses and quality linen to the large TV with Foxtel and DVD movies. We also loved the free pancakes every morning and the free tea and coffee, as well as the large garden area with BBQs for outdoor eating. this place provided enhanced comfort and quality services that exceeded our expectations.

    We would strongly recommend this hotel to our friends.
