Really dirty hostel. There were rats in kitchen.

Stayed in May 2023

'self check in' didn't work. Never got the key code for the door. Manager didn't answer phone. One small toilet for a whole story at the end of the house.

Don’t stay in this place! Especially if you’re a female traveler! When I arrived at the hostel around 9 pm, there was no staff around only drunk people. After calling the manager a couple of times a girl checked me in and told me in what bed I was. On my bed were stuff of some one else, which she would just remove and gave me the bed. This left me wondering if the bed was even cleaned. At the second night I got bitten by something and then a saw BEDBUGS crawling next to the bed. This is disguisting!!! I was even bitten by them a couple of times. When I asked other people in the hostel about it they said the manager already new about this problem. I felt really disgusted that I got a bed in which bedbugs had been seen before. I tried to call the manager but he would never pick up the phone, and left a couple of messages but I still have had no response. I think this is very childish! you should take good care of your hostel and the people in it. I felt really alone as a solo female traveler with this problem. PLEASE DONT GO HERE!

The nice people that stayed there.

The complete un-professionalism of the management demonstrated in the response to another guests honest review. The property was kept unlocked, meaning anyone could walk in off the street directly into the hostel and into the bedrooms. I was grateful to have a friend here with me otherwise as a solo female traveler I would have felt EXTREMELY UNSAFE. The kitchens were never clean, I saw a cleaner once the whole time I was there. Yes it’s the responsibility of the guests to do the dishes but it was way more than just the dishes. There was glass on the floor, the floor corners of the room filled with old food scraps where they had just been swept to the side. The fridge leaked water leaving anything you left in there soaked through, and your bags full. Two of the guests took it upon themselves to clean the hostel and take the bins out on multiple occasions as they were disgusted with the upkeep. Three people throughout my stay were bitten by countless bedbugs. When the issue was raised with management we were told the rooms would be fumigated which they weren’t till two days after. linen was simply changed and that was deemed a suitable fix. I wished to extend my stay for a couple days and politely asked the manager Kyle a few days prior, who said we would be able to and that he had reserved the beds. Never did we nor would we ‘beg to stay’. This was ‘confirmed’ by him multiple times. However this was not the case and if it wasn’t for the female traveler who helped out at the hostel booking us rooms we would have been ignored and left finding alternative accommodation. which I honestly wish we had done. The management is sexist and claimed to have removed us from the property for reasons that changed every time without actually discussing with us when we asked. Ignoring to the multiple calls.

Only good thing about it was when we left it.

Don't go there as a solo traveling woman! The place looks filthy, most of the time there is no staff around. There was a creepy and disgusting old guy in the kitchen when I arrived. The whole place is completely run down. Also, I didn't feel safe in the city. Arrived with an overnight bus at 4am and was followed by a strange guy for quite some time... I left as soon as I could!!!

The bathrooms and kitchen were okay.

Stayed in March 2023

I didn't know it was online check-in only so I has to wait some time to figure it out.

Private bed in public space, it was really comfortable. I stayed in room 4, toilet also pretty nice but one toilet sink was clogged. but other 2 toilets were clean so i don't complaining. I would love to stay here more if i need, I don't understand why here's have bad score. and laundry also free!

The place looked very run down. I drove by the house 3 times because i did not realise it was a Hostel. The outside area looked like a dumping place (old mattress, old washer, loads of clothes etc.). the fresh linen was stored on the pool table. The whole place just looked filthy and weird. The door to my dorm had no lock. The main door was unlocked as well, so literally anyone could've walked in. I don't even think there was staff present (I arrived at 3pm). Im a female solo traveler and felt so unsafe I decided to leave. Thank god I arrived early so there was enough time to book a different accommodation.

I decided to leave

Stayed in February 2023

when I arrived there were no staff members around, there was a sheet on the desk saying it’s self check in and I should have received an email with my details. I hadn’t. I’m a young female solo traveller and was exhausted and worried at this point, there was no one at all around other than a man who just came back from a run, he tried to help me but also couldn’t find any staff. after about 45 minutes someone appeared and said they would send me the email now (it’s about 9pm at this point). so I was finally able to access my room. the room was tiny and the beds weren’t clean, lucky I was only staying two nights. my room was directly next to the kitchen and so was very loud all night. wouldn’t recommend to anyone, DO NOT STAY HERE

nothing. the rooms were dirty, there was one toilet, the kitchen is tiny, and nothing felt safe at all

Would have liked if the bunk number it said on my booking was my bed, got sorted but not very precise with the booking bed number.

Plenty of room, power point, and a shelf for your gear. clean linen.

The booking.com description is not accurate, you can’t rent a bike for instance.

This hostel is like a little house where you feel at home

Cleanliness

Kyle was very helpful and kind, lovely feel to the hostel, everyone was so friendly

Stayed in February 2023

Tom the staff member was very helpful and showed us where the bars and a good night out was. The free washer and dryer was great.

Stayed in January 2023

mattress was on floor

easy to locate and get around from hostel

Stayed in January 2023

There is one shared toilet and a sink next to it on the outside. It was clean but a little awkward.

Really good value for money! Rooms were clean and pleasant. Staff were really friendly and go above and beyond.

The kitchen was disgustingly dirty and disorganised. The whole place was dirty, everything looks old and poorly kept. The bathrooms were also dirty, one of them with a clogged sink. I was literally attacked by bed bugs during the night. I woke up with more than 27 bites on my whole body. Do yourselves a favour and just find somewhere else to stay in Bundaberg.

The only two positive things about this place were its location and Tom (friendly staff member).

Stayed in December 2022

Bed bugs in the room and in other peoples beds as well. Absolutely zero security - anyone could walk in off the street at any time and stay there ? Nowhere secure to leave your items. Staff weren’t responsive or weren’t around. Just overall super weird.

It was somewhere to sleep that wasn’t the street

Very helpful and friendly staff, nice place to stay, everything you need while traveling

Stayed in December 2022

No air con outside of where you sleep but that's nothing would definitely stay again.

Very nice people and set up everything was lively and the kitchen was amazing.

- my mattress was absolutely awful, I’m not a princess and have stayed in many hostels with springy mattresses but this one was next level. I did raise it with staff so they were aware and can hopefully replace for the next person

- central location - staff were wonderful, thank you Kyle for being so helpful and offering lifts if we needed them - accidentally checked into the wrong room due to confusion with the room number (ended up in a 4 bed instead of a 12 bed) and Kyle let us stay there for the duration of our stay instead of moving us out or asking us to pay more considering we’d ended up in a much smaller and therefore more expensive dorm! - was a lovely bunch of people staying there - kitchen was open 24/7, ideal for late night snackers like me! - not a dry hostel so could enjoy a few drinks at night with other backpackers - had a lovely homely feel to it, more like a house than a generic backpackers hostel - free laundry

Stayed in November 2022

the dryer didnt work however no notice about this on the machine. One toilet (without having to go outside) and shower for 3 dorm rooms with at least 4 people per room. Mattress were awful and old. Half of the stuff in there was falling apart and the back door kept getting suck when closed. A lot of noise late into the night from other residents. Would never stay again and would definitely not recommend

Very little to be honest. Two perks, decent wifi and free washing machines.

The matraces are too old, it’s not too comfortable to sleep on them any more. Do the Online Check-in early, so the Key-App will be activated on time (takes a wile until it works).

Staff was great, the cleaning generally is alright and the rooms are heigh and with plenty of light everywhere. The kitchen was mostly clean and showed a good equipment (no oven, everything else is there). Absolutely friendly athmosphere, met interesting people and had many good talks even in this short period of time. Online Check-in and Check-out at any time without problems. In addition, I could store my baggage and stay in the Bunk Inn for the whole check-out day, as my bus departed in the evening. Thanks for that!

Stayed in November 2022

There was no staff available for check in. I had to find my own bed by asking the guests staying there. The worst part was the springs in the mattress were jabbing into my back - terrible nights sleep.

It was very convenient to the middle of Bundaberg.
