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

Old and dirty. Felt like staying at a bar, loud music playing from 10 am to 10 pm. Lots of drunks shouting. Would never stay there again. Offered a free coffee for a good review, I think that says something about it.

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.

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.

I had trouble with the booking and had to pay twice which was a bit annoying, but after e-mailing with them they managed to sort it out smoothly and I got my money back (from the second withdrawal). It was comfortable enough for one rainy night, with a lot of backpackers at the place! Nothing fancy but definitely worth the price. The female dorm with 4 beds had its own bathroom in the room which was a plus!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Backpackers in Paradise? More like Backpackers in Hell. Kitchen had a massive insect infestation. The 20 bed dorm is built over the bar which is starting the loud music already early in the morgen. When I asked to turn in off or lower it, the Employees just didn't care and said "It's a bar". Bathroom are filthy and never been cleaned. ACs are not working. It is loud in the night and even the employees don't care and are also loud loud talking in the dorms!

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.

Worst Hostel. Water was leaking from Sealing and sinks are so small that you won't be able to wash your face or hands. All the Dust all over the room no cleanness. Congusted beds and No AC. I won't recommend to any one.

The hostel was decent but a few things that stuck out was that the light in my bathroom didn't work and the Wi-Fi was terrible, even with an access code or paid plan. The common area outside got very loud at night, which made it hard to sleep for someone like me who is early to bed and early to rise. I wish there were some indoor common areas to stay in. With everything outdoors, it was too cold to be out there during the evening hours (I visited in July). Overall, not the worst hostel I have stayed in. Staff was very friendly.

Whilst this was convenient for my purposes, in that I was only there for a limited time, I did find it frustrating that the designated smoking area was between the main entry and reception area, meaning there was no option but to walk through it. Having said that, the designated non-smoking area was full of smokers as well. Also, no control over "quiet" time after midnight. Loud partying still going on until 2-3am on all 3 nights I was there. If you are a partying smoker, perfect for you :)

It's a party hostel, which is all good! just make sure you expect a lot of mess and a lot of noise, but you get what you pay for, its the cheapest hostel in surfers! and does have good hang out spaces but again there will always be people drinking and being rowdy.

The property is quite well located, being only 10 minutes walk from the beach and shopping/ The Receptionist was bright, pleasant and helpful. The accommodation (double bed room) was not impressively decorated, and one broken window, had been boarded over. The Booked Continental Breakfast did not exist. The structure of the adjacent rooms looked extremely tatty and curtains opposite rooms were grimy and paintwork in extremely poor condition. The room was very cold, with no form of heating ... I literally slept in bed, with my clothes on ...
