Why it's worth checking out

Mumma’s Hostel Cairns is a budget-focused backpacker stay in Edge Hill, Cairns, offering a friendly base for travellers who want practical facilities and an easygoing social atmosphere. The hostel describes itself as a place where guests can meet like-minded travellers, with a helpful team available for local suggestions, directions and general assistance during a stay.

Guests have access to complimentary breakfast and coffee, free unlimited Wi-Fi, a shared kitchen, laundry facilities, hot showers, air conditioning and a large outdoor area with a swimming pool. There is also a TV and movie room with Netflix, while towels are available at no charge.

The range gives solo travellers and groups several room formats to consider, although the website positions the hostel primarily towards backpackers and budget-conscious travellers.
