글래드스톤 백패커스(Gladstone Backpackers)

Beds are small and crammed with big dogs freely walking throughout all the rooms, no space in the shower so everything gets wet. Other guests screaming in the rooms until 4am. Zero help from staff after I was double charged, I have contacted them multiple times and they still won’t give me my money back. Worst hostel I’ve ever stayed at.

Enjoyed my short stay. Friendly and relaxed staff, joined in on the fun and thanks to Darren I got to hike mount Larcum! Awesome hike and thanks for the guided tour. I will definetly recommend this hostel

They charged me twice, first for booking and then in person, to get my money back I had to talk to the bank, after that they never returned the deposit of 50 dollars for the room, I also tried several times to contact them with no response. They keep my money and make me pay an unagreed value

Simple like a home.. Awesome .more freedom to carry out your thing like gym, pool or taking walks. I would recommend to anyone travelling... Also the thing I like was having chat with other people from different walks.

Located easy walking distance to the Marina and East shores parklands .. perfect weather during my stay for a wander to watch the boats cruising past .. Great bunch of crew at the backpackers that were happy to entertain me floating solo.. awesome slow cooked lamb feast.. Thanks a bunch beautiful humans 💕

Great location if you like to get out on the water 🚤 🎣.. also to the Heron island ferry terminal, short walking distance to bars and eateries … the price range is easygoing compared to other accommodations in the area , life is what you make it, happy adventures ☀️

I was looking back at my travel diary, and feel compelled to leave a good review for this awesome place It's got the best /ruby red and dark wood) kitchen I have ever been in, my dream kitchen; it has a lovely lounge room with a pet turtle in a tank, and a gentle friendly dog with beautiful eyes was also outside. It's like a home away from home for the many young people there. The owners are lovely, honest, kind and helpful and fair. The house is huge, like a mansion, and we ate dinner on the huge 2nd story balcony which was lovely. I recommend this place due to the fantastic owners and the beautiful vibe of the mansion.

We stayed just one night as a stop off on a road trip and kind of wished we had stayed for longer! A very relaxed welcome family vibe. Our host Penny was very helpful and made delicious pizzas! The hostel pets were also very sweet. Facilities were very clean and the aircon worked very well. Good cheap drinks at the bar 👍

I wasn’t comfortable with the shower privacy and felt that some blacked out glass would be better. Also, a shelf for my dry clothes in the shower would be helpful. Floor wasn’t clean either. Affordable, but next to I’ll spend a little more to stay elsewhere.
