It was dirty and the rooms not cleaned daily
I booked in and the staff did not point out you have no acess to the kitchen or lobby after 10pm. I think this is absolutely ridiculous as we are basically locked out of the basic facilities. If you want coffee and anything else you have to go and look for a cafe. I will never stay there again.

Great location but the facility is very run down... the dorm room for 4 was extremely small; bathroom attached to the dorm room is not a good idea because the proximity compromises the privacy. The bathroom is very old, small and not user friendly. $20 deposit for a key and $20 deposit for a hairdryer.... really? I would strongly recommend the owners to upgrade or sell ad build a new world-class facility. The staff was very helpful and polite :-)

Staff were lovely and extremely helpful. I stayed in a room on my own with a private bathroom. I had a good nights sleep and felt safe. The only issue I had, which was out NO fault of the Hotel, was the outside noise, from people in the street, but I did have a room facing the main road. Just something to be aware of and it I feel it is to be somewhat expected as it is the Gold coast :)
