The room and the bathroom were very dirty. Their restaurant supposed to be open at 7:00 a.m. was not open still at 8am. Other guests very noisy with no consideration all hours of the night

Affordable and great for young people
Pretty basic accommodation- you get what you pay for. It's great for young people who want to meet other young people from around the world. There's some opportunities to pay for accommodation by working in housekeeping. Good location - 10mins from the beach and all the amenities. There's a fully licensed bar, a swimming pool, fully kitted kitchen, and laundry facilities. Highly recommended if you want somewhere affordable to stay in Surfer's Paradise.

Amazing Staff
I arrived for check in a couple of hours early and the Staff were so nice & accommodating. They went out their way to get my room ready because I had to go out & wasn’t back till late.

Decent hostel. Kitchen was dirty, narrow and small (basically a hallway), but was still useable. Staff were nice. They have a restaurant on site that made a great veggie burger. Central to bus station and downtown. Not sure if I would stay again.

6/10 Good

It’s a very old and a bit dilapidated building with dodgy narrow stairs. Room was so basic and a bit grungy. The room wasn’t ready which was annoying. The best thing was the locality to everything. Staff were inexperienced and when I ordered coffee I burnt my mouth from the scorching water.

4/10 Fair

The staff were fabulous when I requested to move room after finding considerable mould. Overall the cleanliness was pretty atrocious, but you get that when you can trade cleaning for free nights. Overall, the vibe of the place is chill and kinda cool and the location is great - far enough away to be quiet, but close enough to easily walk to everything, including the beach.

Home away from home.
My stay was great! Staff made the stay even more enjoyable with entertainment and a quiz to bring everyone together. The entertainment host Mia was terrific in doing so. Thankyou for the stay and look forward to returning again.
