The area was often unclean. There are people walking in and out of the room throughout the evening; it was extremely hard to sleep well. The bathroom and shower area has a lot of grime; evidently have not been cleaned in a long time. ##### Yin Sing Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cami 15 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A really comfy place to stay… very walkable from the heart of the city and near the beach.

It's close to the beach, shops etc. I haven't given 5 stars just because where I was staying it was super noisy. I had a room on my own facing towards the cafe/reception area so it felt like I was hearing everything. Also the walkway outside my window had a sensor light on which was a bit uncomfortable when it was going on and off quite a bit. I was able to leave my bag for a bit after checking out which was super handy. There are upkeep works going which is great to see. No need to pay for a shuttle, the public transport works great. Look it up ;-) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mark 3 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very pleasant My stay was very pleasant. Thanks to the tesm.. ##### mark Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Daisy Rose 3 Mar 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The location is amazing, a short walk to the beach and main clubs. Majority of the staff were exceptional however there was one point where we were in our room ill and a cleaner came into our room ‘to clean’ and wouldn’t leave for a solid 5 minutes of us asking. The cleanliness of our room was also questionable with stains and dirt all over the floor but the overall atmosphere is really friendly ##### Daisy Rose Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bryon 15 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hostel. Quick getaway to party. Didn't expect to meet a bloke name Luke who happened to stay here also and at Wicked Pub crawl. Great value for money. Just wish the top bunk i was on had power outlet. 10 min walk from Cavil Ave. Highly recommend great staff too ##### Bryon Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Gabrielle 30 May 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Decent hostel. Kitchen was small, narrow, and dirty but still useable. Staff were nice. They have a restaurant on site that made a good veggie burger. ##### Gabrielle Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cody 10 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Cody Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Elizabeth 5 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The lady at reception was lovely, but by far the most dank unhygienic and dirty place ive ever stayed at. Sheets were stained, was hairs in the bed, a dirty sock at the bed head. Was minging for the price to. Shower was so flipping gross. N pretty sure there were bed bugs. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa 16 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Thank you Fantastic had no idea of being a back packers venue at all stayed end of gold coast Alfred cyclone had particularly nothing yet greeted and looked after with my partner so kindly the bedroom was so clean welcoming bathroom clean and big had a very safe comfortable place to stay thank you to the man at reception for all your all your helo ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim 31 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Single bed was horrible. inner springs were shot.
