雖然很多年輕人,但是很自覺,早晨靜悄悄,晚上有個小酒吧,放着音樂,但是不影響我睡覺,兩天睡的都很好。位置極佳,G—link車站就在100米,海邊也很近。老闆中國人,很好。

Worst backpackers on the Gold Coast. Initial HS- Japanese working holiday maker (working and living at Maxmee) is a big con artist who uses women for free xxx, accommodation and food. All women, be careful! Also the rooms are crappy, dirty and filthy!!!! Go to a hotel instead.

my stay at this accomodation was so utterly awful that i don’t even know how to start this review. but let’s just start with the gigantic toe nail that was left on my bedside table on my arrival to my “clean” room. i fear for my life after staying here due to the endless mould that coats every ceiling, wall, and surface in the bedroom and bathroom. i was also without a blanket for one of my three beds which is annoying but since the aircon is terrible it doesn’t really matter too much. i feel like my experience was so awful that it must have been orchestrated deliberately by a disgruntled employee.

Mia hosted some really great games which got everyone in the hostel really involved. She was really enthusiastic which created good energy and I highly suggest staying here if you want to have a fun hostel experience. I only stayed 3 nights but I could have definitely of done more time here
