The accomodation wasn’t the cleanest or best maintained in terms of amenities, however the staff were brilliant and helpful in ensuring a wonderful holiday. It’s on the Main Street of Airlie Beach which made transport, dining and activities super accessible.

The furniture was rotting and falling apart. Bed was very uncomfortable. Spa bath was not clean enough to use. Toilet cistern was broken. TV was very small and not worth using. Very over priced. Will never stay there again.

As someone who has been travelling for nearly two months, it was great to meet fellow travellers closer to my own age group. Free walks and trips and special deals on food for those on a budget has been kost welcome. Clean room and en-suite for 4 felt like luxury. Reception staff very helpful

Booked this through wotif.com. Nowhere in the wotif booking page does it mention this is backpacker accommodation. In fact it calls it a hotel. There were swarms of young people - schoolies? Room was spacious and clean, but very tired. May be ok for backpacker’s but certainly not up to par as a hotel.

Poorly maintained budget accommodation.
Dilapidated Old room with few facilities. Very noisy. You could hear every noise from adjoining rooms. The shower head drooped so I had to bend down to wash my hair.

Okay stay for backpackers
This is for backpackers. I must say I blame myself for not looking closely enough. I would not have booked this hotel for me. The private room was dated. There was not a single seat to sit on. The lighting was terrible. Good thing we only stayed one night

Reception is poorly laid out - I found the "reception" area underneath a giant sign that said nomads only to find out I have to go about two blocks to X Base Backpackers to check in and it took a bit for people to Reception is to the point and moves quickly. Got introduced to an app called GOKI that would act as my key; nice touch but would have preferred a room key.

I ended up being checked into a room at base. It was very basic as to be expected as at backpackers. No TV though as my room was an individual room. No indoor or outdoor table and the front patio area was very dirty and last guests items still in the fridge. 2 star at best.

Very inconsistent between rooms. Some rooms had extra blankets and a TV. Ours didn’t, it was hard to sleep as there was a patio with a light that we couldn’t turn off. It made it hard to sleep.

The property itself was lovely, the room however was well below standards of hospitality with rusty bar fridge, mould showing on ceilings, no blanket, mismatching drapes, most missing hooks, leaking old aircon units and broken outdoor furniture. Paying 198 for this unit was a total rip off.
