Check-in via email code worked well. You get what you pay for – affordable stay, but basic standards. Some bathrooms out of order, and the rest could use maintenance. Kitchen okay but messy inconsiderate guests (my food was left outside fridge overnight). Very noisy overall – AC had to run constantly in the room and was extremely loud. Staff were friendly and helpful. 40+ solo traveler on a budget, two nights would’ve been enough. ##### Fiona Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clifmond 27 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was so impressed at the quality for a low budget place. The guests were very respectful, friendly. The kitchen facilities were good. I would stay again. I did notice someone was sleeping kitchen when I woke up at 5am. Not sure if he was guest in the hotel. ##### Clifmond Stayed -12 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Hugh 6 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Great location and comfortably room and bed Bit dingy with no windows to outside and very noisy until at least midnight ##### Hugh Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### tomoko 31 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities You can enjoy a free life.

The kitchen is well equipped and has also an airfryer. The best was location really near everything supermarket , port and lagoon pool. ##### Laura Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Vaia 13 Feb 2023 Disliked: Staff & service We paid for a room to be on the Esplanade.

A simple yet welcoming environment, this place completely changed my prospective on hostels. It's not a party place and everyone respects one another, a very relaxed place. Location is centeral to everything in town on the waterfront, but the sounds of outside arent heard. I cannot recommend this place enough and cannot wait to return. ##### Katielynn Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Evan 23 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location on the boardwalk Excellent location right on the waterfront. Self check-in did not work for me either time staying here but they have a number you can call 24 hours to check in. Rooms are pretty sparse but decently comfortable. No comforter on the bed (only a bed sheet) but it's warm enough that you don't really need it. A/C units are also pretty strong. Not loud at night. ##### Evan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Noosa Tropicana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunshine-Coast-Hotels-Noosa-Tropicana.h3769240.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradise Resort Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Paradise-Resort-Gold-Coast.h43437.Hotel-Information) > > [Brisbane Skytower by CLLIX](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Arise-Brisbane-Skytower.h19178209.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal On The Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Royal-On-The-Park.h582734.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Brisbane Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Pullman-Brisbane-Airport.h19295763.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Brisbane Central by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Brisbane-Central.h14677166.Hotel-Information) > > [The Langham, Gold Coast and Jewel Residences](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-The-Langham.h78099407.Hotel-Information) > > [Regency on the Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Regency-On-The-Beach.h1784811.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d178279-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Melaleuca Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cairns-Hotels-Melaleuca-Resort.h1142618.Hotel-Information) > > [Peppers Soul Surfers Paradise](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Peppers-Soul-Surfers-Paradise.h4619963.Hotel-Information) > > [Rumba Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunshine-Coast-Hotels-Rumba-Beach-Resort.h3688041.Hotel-Information) > > [W Brisbane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-W-Brisbane.h21612140.Hotel-Information) > > [ Hotel Tropiq](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cairns-Hotels-Cairns-Rainbow-Resort.h201315.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d5489-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Cheap Hotels in Dubai Emirate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Dubai-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d1079-tBudgetHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Imperial Hotel Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Palazzo-Versace.h541927.Hotel-Information) > > [Cairns Colonial Club Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cairns-Hotels-Cairns-Colonial-Club-Resort.h84257.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Noosa Backpackers Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunshine-Coast-Hotels-Nomads-Noosa-Backpackers-Hostel.h3856711.Hotel-Information) > > [Bay Village Tropical Retreat & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cairns-Hotels-Bay-Village-Tropical-Retreat-Apartments.h980056.Hotel-Information) > > [Stamford Plaza Brisbane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Stamford-Plaza-Brisbane.h460514.Hotel-Information) > > [TravelodgeUK Hotels in Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d6069845--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Royal Court Hotel & Spa Coventry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-Royal-Court-Hotel-Spa-Coventry.h66197.Hotel-Information) > > [RACV Royal Pines Resort Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-RACV-Royal-Pines-Resort-Gold-Coast.h425456.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Brisbane Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brisbane-Hotels-Ibis-Brisbane-Airport-Hotel.h19295854.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Gold-Coast-Resort-Spa.h25943.Hotel-Information) > > [Burleigh on the Beach Holiday Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Burleigh-On-The-Beach-Holiday-Apartments.h9625452.Hotel-Information) ### Packages > [Ukraine Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ukraine.d188.Holidays-City-Breaks) ---
