"The bunk beds are designed head-to-toe, so you don't disturb each other, and there are outlets and bedside lamps, which is really practical. The four-person female dorm has its own private bathroom, which is convenient, and everyone is considerate and keeps it pretty clean.
The kitchen hygiene is quite poor; the sink is often disgustingly clogged. There isn't a single good non-stick pan; everything sticks terribly, a far cry from industry standards.
The location is great, right near Surfers Paradise, with big and small supermarkets and plenty of restaurants nearby, making dining convenient.
It's very noisy at night facing the street, but I guess anyone staying in this area enjoys a lively atmosphere.
You can store your luggage after checkout, but there are no tags, you just go into the storage room yourself and pick it up. I personally think this is a security risk... I wonder if the business thinks having cameras is enough... but with the current security situation in Europe and America... 😒
It rained the whole two days I was in Gold Coast... what a shame."
