Old and dirty room, no blanket for the bed, old curtains, poor value for the money we paid. Would not recommend.

Don't recommend to anyone.

Hi well the rooms were very dusty and the shiwer doors have mould. Health n safety issue. Beds were clean and comfy. Staff at reception kind n helpful. Kitchen clean but small. Fan in room 13 was on and very noisey the button to turn off was broken fixed finally. Couldnt sleep easily

Overall okay, but pretty expensive for what you get

We left without staying it was run downs and full of backpackers camping right in from of the room

Reception is poorly laid out - I found the "reception" area underneath a giant sign that said nomads only to find out I have to go about two blocks to X Base Backpackers to check in and it took a bit for people to Reception is to the point and moves quickly. Got introduced to an app called GOKI that would act as my key; nice touch but would have preferred a room key.

for a dry accommodation there was alot of parties an it was very loud so trying to sleep was a mission as there was a massive party full of drunk people next to me an the walls are very thin

Awesome place very comfy

Very inconsistent amongst rooms. Some were prepared better than others. Air conditioner did not work.

Very inconsistent between rooms. Some rooms had extra blankets and a TV. Ours didn’t, it was hard to sleep as there was a patio with a light that we couldn’t turn off. It made it hard to sleep.

As someone who has been travelling for nearly two months, it was great to meet fellow travellers closer to my own age group. Free walks and trips and special deals on food for those on a budget has been kost welcome. Clean room and en-suite for 4 felt like luxury. Reception staff very helpful

Shabby

Did not feel safe staying here, very dirty, bed was not at all stable and one rail was broken, booked a female only dorm and was checked into a mix dorm without been told, others staying at the hostel were loud and inconsiderate, i ended up leaving and gaving to find somewhere else to stay

The most available hostel in Airlie beach

Huge place, ample rooms, nice pools, good laundry, so close to lagoon and beach, very close to shops and pub on site. Has rules but not obviously enforced.

The layout was good, a but confusing with all the renos and changes going on, decent. The kitchen.. Currently.. Is a joke. Completely crap, also the laundry situation is not good, the washers are good but the dryers.. They had 5, 2 were 'working' but not actually so really just money suckers so let's say no dryers ha. Also, all the staff but 1 guy was very helpful and pleasent. But that 1 staff member... Was very rude and very unhelpful. The pools are nice and the vibe is good :) wifi is also a joke and basicly you don't have any but McDonald's is close by :)

cool :)

Everything was great, room was comfy and clean. Only downfall was Reception. Such massive queues of people checking in and out, with maybe only 2 people serving on reception. But maybe 4 or 5 members of staff begins reception not seeming to be doing much. There was an English girl on reception who was really helpful and speedy! Would recommend though, just be prepared to wait over 30minutes.

This will go down in history as the dirtiest and most unbelievably disgusting place I've ever been. It's almost comical if it hadn't happened to me. There was mold all over the bathrooms, lines/armies of ants running from the trash can - up the wall - across the doors - and into the toilets. There are large brown water spots all over the walls. Cobwebs EVERYWHERE with dead spiders caught in them (because even the spiders can't survive this place!). And I had the loveliest opportunity to have cockroaches run across my body while laying in my bed. The staff has made their peace with this and looked at me funny when I asked, "hey can you clear out the dead spiderwebs that are a foot from my head?" (Spoiler alert: they didn't). I didn't bother to look in the kitchen because other travelers warned me not to. My nerves were shot, so I spent the night watching the ceiling fan which had long strings of cobwebs dangling off the blades and spinning around over my head. It's just like counting sheep - but for low budget backpackers. Naturally, the fan was attached to the ceiling beam using duct tape, which added an extra element of danger and intrigue. I laid awake that night wondering would I rather by killed by the cockroaches, the ant nation, or the fan once the tape loses grip. Great times!

Nice hostel part of Base so annoying you have to walk further up to check in and takes longer.Clean room with a nice bathroom and good location.

Clean,tidy and convenient. Older style rooms on Main Street in Airle Beach.

Filthy kitchen, but rooms are nice together with the location in Airlie!

great placer

Mainly due to the cyclone and Nomads being closed, everything was going through base. Kitchen was crowded, no room to store anything in the kitchen, expensive luggage storage. Rooms were clean and had their own bathroom which was nice

Hostel at a nice location but not very clean. Not sure about the other hostels, but there might be some cleaner ones...

Great staff!

It's a bit run down and needs to be renovated. A/C does not work well at all, makes a lot if noice.

In regards to the staff some we're awesome and super helpful, and other others seemed like they could just care less. I was put in a 8 bed mix. I was the only person of the opposite sex. Fine whatever, but there was just one bed available and there was something on the bed that I can just assume was a fluid from a human. That was the only issue I had with cleanliness, but thankfully the person at reception had no problem with changing the sheet. Aside from the sheet situation I would recommend this hostel. It was convenient to have the bathroom in the room.

Stayed in a private room. Room was HUGE. The place is a bit old, but everything worked and it was clean enough! Free parking (limited - first come first served). Very central location. But the rooms are set back far enough from the street that noise wasn't a problem. Could be though for people sensitive to noise. It was practically silent outside after 2am though.
