This is a fine, safe place to stay but it's not near the beach, or any main attractions in the area, so it's really just a place to sleep. You can walk around the area, but it's not extremely well-lit at night, if that concerns you. Staff is nice, the rooms were a bit bare but clean, with plenty of... More

Unhygienic all I can say. Trouble just to ask for a god damn new pillow case, lady brought it back a week later. Bed bugs ravaged my body at night rudeness from female manager (larger lady, don't even go to ask for a thing) disgusting really.

Arrived at accommadation and was given key to our room, looked so shabby & dirty asked for key to another room but that was no better, told reception it was not what we saw on their web page, was advertised as a Hotel, also another lady was at the counter saying it's not what she has seen on the web...

When I saw the photos on the website this place looked nice - something that it's not. I knew it's a budget accommodation and that it had shared bathroom and kitchen, but the minimum I expect from any accommodation is cleanness.

The negative reviews of this place reflect a mismatch in expectations. Please be clear when you book this place: it is not a motel, and it is not a hotel. It is a HOSTEL. I decided to stay here in spite of mixed reviews because I wanted to save some money. I only needed a cheap bed and a roof... More

Of course it's not as wonderful as those luxury ones, but good as a backpacker option in such a famous city. 5 minutes walking to bus stop and you can get to everywhere from there. You may also book shuttle service through the loverly owner couple and they can offer a discount rate, It also has clean kitchen and bathroom,... More

I have travelled alot in many countries and I have got to say this is the cleanest place I have come across. The hosts were helpful. Other guests had stayed before and there was an atmosphere of friendliness. Close to buses to Surfers or a good 25 min walk to beach. Bonus to have a pool, only concern is that... More

My wife and I stayed there as we wanted excellent value for money and were very happy with our choice. We were able to walk everywhere to beaches, restaurants and great shops and even a cinema complex too- We would not hesitate to recommend it and will stay again when next in Southport. Bill & Nelly

I have travelled europe and stayed in economical hotels which could not compare with the value here. On returning to the The Gold Coast my home town, I chose this hotel to stay for a month, whilst awaiting the availability of my own rented home. It was the best choice a mature woman could have made. One needs to do... More
