Cool place. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Location was excellent. Booked 10 bed dorm but ended up in a 4 bed apartment thingy. Only complaint is the mattress was shocking.

Didn't feel secure in this hostel at all. Rooms are dorm style yet people walked in all the time without even knocking. House keeping obviously you expect but not other random staff and people trying to promote club nights. We'd be sat in the lounge area and would hear people come in then go a couple of seconds later. No wonder there's reviews of stuff getting stolen all the time. Didn't get a full night sleep the whole stay as the walls must be made out of paper. This said location was good

Hostel in apartement style, so that makes it harder to meet other guests. Kichten was very poor, only three pans and not even a microwave. Beds were very comfortable and the location is OK. The cheap party night are great, we went to the club with 60 people on a mondaynight!

Unfortunately I can't give good feedback. Our room was extremely dirty and fixtures and fittings were either broken or non-existent, the hot water was just warm and ran out completely after one shower leaving my partner with cold water in winter! The mattress on the bed was substandard and to stop feeling the metal underneath the mattress we pulled it onto the floor for 3 nights!! The linen and doona covers stunk and the pillows were absolutely filthy, almost brown! The window didnt close pr

I liked the layout of the rooms. There was a living area and kitchen shared between every three rooms. There also is a common room with movies and a pool table. The rooms were decent too. Only downside was the bathrooms which were in need of some cleaning.

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.
