Hey, we stay in the sleeping for 2 Nights. The first Night was 27 D. Definitly too much. 4 bed room like a very small Shed. Come in and go only to bed and the other Person have to wait. The Second and third Night was better. We checked Out and Check in with hostelworld. 22 D. This was okay but the bathroom was under water After one Person and you can't House this. A Big Problem for me is: drug. A Lot of People smoke. I hate this. Its not only a Problem from this Hostel The staff friendl

A good hostel if you're young and want to party. Not a good hostel if you value cleanliness and quiet. The Wi-Fi doesn't really work and computers available (for additional cost) are very slow. Slept in a six bed dorm, which was supposed to have an ensuite bathroom, but in reality was shared with two other rooms. Bed and mattress rather old. The staff was nice. If you're looking for a place to meet other party people and go out clubbing, come here. At the age of 24, I felt a little out of place.

When i came, my roommate told me she has just lost her cell phone, her friend lost his laptop and another girl lost some money due to a break in of a man who pretended to be a guest at the hostel. rooms are designed in the form of an apartment with two bed room and one bathroom, one common room. The door of common room open whole day whole night. Very unsecured. A female receptionist was very nice and helpful to me while a male staff refused to restart the router so i could not use internet.

Staff are very helpful, apartment style rooms with own kitchens and bathrooms mean that you can stay quiet if you want, or join in with the rest of the guests. Whatever night you stay there is always something going on, with all you can eat BBQ and pizza nights and people going out every night. Probably the best hostel I've stayed in in Aus/NZ!

I loved the chilled beachy atmosphere with the outside reception. The staff were really friendly and helpful. I liked how it differed from other hostels as it was like appartments each with their own kitchen and bathrooms. Good walking distance to the beach down a quiet street. The room itself was a bit dingy and smelt damp, but was always cleaned spotlessly. I mainly liked the chilled relaxed atmosphere, but not too sure on the hostel logo! :) Thanks for having us! :)

If this hostel was located anywhere other than surfers paradise I would have stayed for several weeks. Was a little dirty but having done university it was nothing I couldn't handle. We stayed in their apartment form, the largest largest avaliable avaliable and it was mint. I recommend the hostel just not surfers paradise.I

Matress was baaaaad, but the rest quite decent. It's a somewhat a party hostel, like all hostels in Surfers, I guess.

First of all the staff was great, always helpful with a smiling face. In the section that I stayed 12 people were sharing one bathroom. this is definetly not enough, however the bathroom and the rooms were cleaning daily, they were clean enough. There were no secure lockers in the room. There were computers to connect internet, if headphones and mic are added to that computers, they will be much more useful.

Personally, I was uncomfortable staying here for a number of reasons: 1) It was definitely geared toward young, party goers. - no quiet space 2) Although the space was "clean" it felt dirty - super old couches. 3) 14 girls sharing 1 bathroom = difficult! 4) no air conditioning so sleeping was difficult 5) internet stopped working for many hours of the day. If you are 18 and like to party - I recommend. If you are 24+ and enjoy day activities more than partying at night - stay elsewhere.

worst hostel ever stayed at because very chaotic atmosphere, extremely dirty, no cleaning facilities, furnitures broken, no rules in place, anyone and do anything they want, very very bad infrastructure, wish i could add the picture that i have taken. no worlds good enough to describe how bad this hostel is, stay away or go there at your own risk

The cleaning could be a bit better - I know my roomies made a bit of a mess, but it would still be nice that the table was actually cleaned. Even had a cockroach in my bed one morning, not the best surprise. Staff was super friendly - really liked the fact that when you arrive they grab one of your bags to help you carry. Small thing to do but gives that vibe that they actually care about you.

Don't advertise free wifi when it's a crapshoot as to whether you'll be able to connect your device. Either upgrade your networking equipment to be able to handle the amount of guests your hostel has, or install equipment from one of the many companies that will handle it for you and charge for the internet. There are no libraries within walking distance which just compounds the issue. Needs more than one shower for a 12 person apartment. I did like the free club entry and drink every night.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the hostel! It's a friendly hostel and the entertainment programme encourages lone backpackers to socialise! Staff are great- fun and helpful! The rooms are cleaned daily and to a good standard... Would definitely recommend staying here to others! Security was only an issue if one of the fellow backpackers leave your front door wide open! That is not the hostels fault though!

I loved my stay at sleeping inn!! There is always something going on, nights out, pizza nights in and films on the outdoor screen by the swimming pool. I definitely recommend doing the big night out with the hostel on Wednesday or Saturday, it's a great way to get to know everyone from the hostel and also from other hostels in surfers paradise. The staff were great and always involve everyone. The hostel is just a few minutes walk from everything and gave great advice about things to see and do!

Sleeping Inn is a very good hostel. Each room has it's own kitchen, something you don't find in hostels very often. The hostel offers a lot of nice things to do: there's a big gaming room, books for everyone, a nice pool and a big TV. I especially liked the movie nghts with BBQ and of course the big night out. All in all it's a very clean hostel and the staff was really friendly,helpful and open-minded. I will definitely come back! ;)
