Surfside Coogee Beach Backpackers Reviews

loved this hostel and everything about it. great staff, great location, great facilities. i definately recomend this place to anyone travelling

Really friendly welcome from Anita,magic location and very helpful to text me information and process my payment while I was in the city drinking beer.Brilliant

would be good if there were more toilets and also if the bathrooms were cleaned a lot me often. Also, i'm pretty sure there were bedbugs in my mattress.

Do not stay at this backpackers they will charge your visa without asking and if they cannot get money out of you they have been known to phone members of your family and ask them for money also without asking you first! The owner is very shady! The facilities are poor and there is currently an outbreak of bedbugs in most rooms!

Had a wicked christmas and new year at Surfside Coogee Beach. There was always something to do and it was easy to make friends. The girls dorm was particularly nice as it was very quiet and had its own bathroom, couches, tv and dvd. Found the staff very approachable and friendly. At times the partying was a little intense- but it was the holidays! Had a great time and left with some amazing mates and memories!

really enjoyed my stay here. staff were so friendly and helpful. great location. night security ensured it wasn't too loud and i slept well. will definately be back and stay.

When I frist moved in I didn' t know what to expect,the stairs are a killer but so worth it.The hostel is right across from the beach, and a 10 mintue ride to the city.you dont feel like you in a city when your here.The staff here are truly amazing, so friendly and so helpful.The cleaners are the best, always happy and very entertaining. I was only meant to stay2 nights ended up staying 2 weeks.The majourity of the people that stay here live and work here.I well most definitely be coming back!!

This is about the 40th hostel I've stayed at in my time, whilst the hostel is excellent, the staff efficient and the general vibe is good. Allowing hostel guest to make huge amounts of noise until 5am in the morning isn't a good idea, you may also like to warn people that room 1 is the party room.

This place is dirty the sheets were not changed once in over a week and half it was so noisey basically this place sucks go here if you want know sleep an to feel dirty!

I stayed at Surfside Hostel for the last two nights of my month long vacation to Australia. It was a great location but I have to say the staff was not that friendly for the two nights i was there. First off you cant get in this place because its located upstairs and the door is locked all the time. the bathrooms are messy, theres no lockers for your stuff, and god forbid you leave your food in the kitchen it be thrown away by the staff. I would look for another place in Coogee Bay.

This is by far one of the best hostels I have ever stayed in, the staff are so helpfull and friendly, the room is a good size and clean. I can see the ocean from my balcony! Always a winner! The rates are good for the time of year! I've liked my stay at coogee surfside so much I have extended my stay!! Thank guys! Char ward

Staff refused to refund us after giving us directions to the wrong hostel were we were forced to spend the night sleeping on bean bags in the TV room, actually went so far as to try and say that it was partially our fault for following their directions to the wrong place. No sense of service at all, argued with us over $29 after forcing us to sleep on the floor, eventually gave us some free internet, not a positive experience at all.
