The staff is new, and one of them told me, when asking about a youth hostel, "Don't know, have never been there" and disappeared to play table pingis with guests. Well, what can you expect? It is also pity, that they don't offer breakfast any more.,., Many years ago there was a great breakfast, included in the price (shops are far away), and the place was full of surfers and cyclists. Not anymore. In general, and in all YHA's, fridges are completely full all the time. People bring their food in Coles bags and one bag fills one shelf. More fridges, then?

The staff were excellent and exceptionally helpful. I did have some concern about one of the long term "residents" and his activities !

Most of the glass windows were broken, so there was no escaping the noise of the Highway at night. Old curtains that fell of the rods. Sticky kitchen, the worst of all YHA's I've seen. The girls at receptions were great though, and did everything they could to get me a room in the other YHA in the centre of GC. Compliments for them !

The kitchen should be cleaned more often... The toilets as well...

Hostel is very conveniently located near the airport (5 mins walk) so saves time if you have early morning connecting flight. Even though its close by airport, we hardly heard any noise. Pool, internet, library, kitchen are well maintained. The lady in the morning was very helpful but the night care taker is a grumpy old man. We had to ask for room change as one of the rooms was badly maintained.
