😠 Jin, the manager, was horrible to everyone! We were a group of 8 friends and only 1 of us managed to get enough days of the farm(in 4 months and a half) . Avoid this place at all costs! PS: the rest of us ended up going back home or applying to the second year but getting denied, NOT worth it

😠 As you all know that because of the COVID spread in Sydney the border to all the other states have been closed for NSW residents.

😠 DON'T GO TO DINGO BLUE! Thats a serious warning and not just a bad recommendation of an unhappy customer. I'm not saying that because of their filthy and barely equiped kitchen, their untidy community areas, the bad jobs they provide or the overpriced rent of 210 $/week for a bed in a 10 people dorm...

Hostel
😠 If you enjoy fishy odours and noise when you're trying to sleep, this is a great choice. The beds weren't comfortable, but it was better than sleeping on the floor. Proximity to shops and beach was good, but proximity to the fishy smell was bad. Did I mention the fishy stench? To be honest, I didn't...

😠 words can't describe how dirty this place is. but numbers can : 5 months without ANY (and I mean any) cleaning in the rooms, according to a guy who has been living there for the same amount of time.

😠 Feels like a conspiracy. The hiring agency in Cairns sent you here didn't they? Of course they did. If you stay here, they overcharge the hell out of you per week (160-240) and you also have to do MANDATORY hostel labor every week (after working all day) or you don't get your deposit back. They do f...

It actually had some kind of liquid we guess is from meat (which made it smell terrible as the fridge was...
