아이러니하게 적은 인원이 투숙하는 방일 수록 여유공간이 좁아요. 14인실이 제일 여유공간이 넓어요. 무료세탁은 좋구요. 밤에 너무 시끄러워요. 엄청 친절한 직원도 있고 딱딱한 직원도 있구요.

일부 직원은 친절하고 일부 직원은 그냥 보통인듯 합니다. 화장실과 샤워실이 분리가 되어있어서 괜찮아요. 무료 세탁도 좋구요. 다만 조식 주는 남자분이 매일 제가 주문한 토스트는 알겠다고 하고 항상 뒷사람부터 챙겨주고 꼭 제가 다시 내 음식은 안주냐고 다시 말해야 줍니다. 한두번은 그러려니 넘어갔는데 3일째도 똑같아요. 인종차별하는 건가요? 직원 마인드부터 다시 가르치셔야 할듯 합니다.

Free use of both washing machine & dryer, laundry facilities, including the provision of laundry detergent;+ Cable TV; + quick, easy, close by, walking distance, to GLink Tram, Cavill Mall, Surf Lifesaver Flags @ Surfers Paradise & Northcliff Beaches; yet quiet location. Not good:- the couches! They need to be replaced/upgraded asap, VERY VERY uncomfortable & zilch ergonomic support! Also, the intermittent, yet repetitive noise, between 12 midnight & 4 AM, JUST below the sleeping/bedrooms, from VERY VERY loud, talking & laughing, SMOKERS!!!

Some of the backpackers guests are pigs. Despite signs asking them to clean up and CTV cameras they leave dirty dishes with food scraps in the sink and on the TV Lounge table. The ladder to the top double bunk bed in Rm 5 was not fixed to the frame and made a loud noise when used. The facilities are actually pretty good if some of the guests could be more considerate.

Nice stay- party hostel

I found the staff very helpful and friendly upon my arrival, the hostel is pretty much a party hostel, and I was just about partied out by the time I got there but I found it cool nonetheless and I was able to sleep pretty well at night. The location is fantastic very close to the greyhound bus station and right in the heart of everything at Surfers, not a bad choice if your staying in the area for a few days.

交通便利、免費早餐及洗衣

離各個市區景點、超市、餐廳、郵局都很近可以走路到達，離電車站也很近，四人房有點小，沒有自己櫃子，廁所跟浴室一樓跟地下室都有，蠻多間的，但男女沒有分開，有提供風很大很熱的吹風機，有免費洗衣機跟洗衣粉，還有含免費早餐，有英式早餐跟cereal可以選！公共區就在房間的中間，11點前都可以聽到很大聲的電影聊天聲，11點後會管制

Cheapest fun on the GC

Couple of old mad cat 30-40 somethings - we had the private 2 bed bunk room.... Super location 5 mins from beach and Cavill. Very fresh and new feel to the facilities, nice kitchen setup, decent size TV room with comfy couches and around 6 Apple PCs available to use. As with any hostel expect to encounter excitable good looking young adults, noise at various times, and the occasional goon bag 😂. But all in all we had a great time!

good location

立地はサーファーズパラダイスから徒歩圏でとても良かった。スーパーマーケットも近く、トラムの駅までも近い。 部屋は窓がない部屋だったので眼が覚めると部屋が真っ暗。 一人旅だったので外にいる時間の方が長いからあまり気になら無いが、換気もできなく匂いがこもっていた。

Good location and cheap

I spent three days with my friend in Down Under Hostels. Excellent Location which has some many public transportation surrounding. Also, the staff are really easygoing and polite. However, the room is a bit smelly and a bit dirty.
