Overall Ratings & Reviews Mooloolaba Backpackers

It was a great experience staying there.

The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and it's definitely a place that I'll gladly recommend to friends

Good place to stay :)

Reception indifferent and unhelpful about helping me park my car. Dark rooms with limited plug sockets. Dirty pool.

It is close to shops, pub and beach with free use of surf equipment. What I didn't like is the lecture of all the rules, the problem their smoke alarms have that can go off with steam from shower and you must pay $1500 Fire Service call out. Strict rules with no glass bottles at all on site. Everything closes as 9:30pm. At 9:30pm you have three options after being kicked out of the common area, being 1. Leave the backpackers 2. Go to your room or 3. Hang out in the kitchen on you dorm floor without table and chairs and with balcony doors locked. Even NYE lock up and shut up 9:30pm.

Walking distance to most of the local attractions

Quite at night close to town Amenities were pretty dirty

Bit dated, but good value, safe and friendly staff

Nice Hostel, close to the beach, Saturday night free BBQ's are so much fun,

The weather was cold and wet so was the room.....the sheets were so damp I couldn’t use them. I didn’t have anywhere else to stay so put up with it for the two nights I was there . People were friendly. I expected the young people to make some noise but they weren’t a problem.

The place was nice and had a pool, good sitting area and a PlayStation 3 which was fun. The kitchens were alright and did the job but the bathrooms were really gross. Alright overall, cheapest place in Mooloolaba and relatively close to the beach. I saw a family staying there and felt bad for them.

a bit run down and old but okay if travelling on a budget

Good place to stay apart from the hot uncomfortable bed with no aircon , to hot to sleep , messy common room and bathrooms need some work , good people thought made the stay more tolerable

Good price for an overnight stay, facilities are good. Bathrooms needs some work. Staff were really nice.

Was one of the best backpackers I have stayed in.
