I am from the Sunshine Coast in Queensland and came down to Tasmania for some hiking in Cradle Mountain. I used this backpackers as a base. The place was very clean, the staff were so friendly and helpful. Overall my stay was exactly what I was wanting - lots of hiking, resting in a clean, friendly, hospitable place with loads of 'features' ie cable tv, pool table, table tennis and loads of free bread, muffins etc - thank goodness I was hiking everyday. I highly recommend Tasman Backpackers.
