A very nice and cozy hostel! Not too loud, not too far away, a bit busy in the kitchen during dinner time but has everything that is needed. The beds are comfy but don’t have power inlet or lamp for each person. Clean and modern rooms! Happy stay!

Recommend the private rooms at Nomads. Shared bathrooms are clean, with towels and soaps provided which was hugely appreciated. The bed was comfy and all facilities, including aircon were reliable. Feels secure & convenient with the access key being via the app. Staff were friendly & helpful and the atmosphere felt sociable during our brief stay. Overall would recommend, thank you!

Too much noise and bed not comfortable.

Strict minimum in the room but everything you need. But the beds are not comfortable. Bunk beds very dangerous. We put the top mattress on the floor. We did not sleep well at all. People talking outside until 4am without any consideration of others! Too expensive.

Location was convenient to buses, walking , shops for groceries, eateries. Staff were extremely accommodating, friendly, housekeepng / and front desk were quick to help us out where we needed assistance. Thank you for this! It was a little lively outdoors socially until the early hours of the morning so earplugs were necessary for us light sleepers. Otherwise, the room was clean and bright and bed very comfortable. We had a very nice stay in the area for our first trip here. We enjoyed meeting lovely travellers both locally and from farther abroad .

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I enjoyed staying here. Bed was comfortable, rooms were big, decent sized lockers, and good facilities. The most annoying part about the hostel is only having one en suite shower and no shower block when a lot of people are coming back / leaving for K’Gari and the sink being in the shower room rather than the toilet. Only one other toilet always accessible on the site and sink was often blocked and not the cleanest. Some of the bar staff could be quite rude, other staff were good and helpful. Nice location with a little high street close by and near to the Greyhound. Food and drinks at the bar were expensive. But generally clean and well maintained, good atmosphere and everything you need for your stay.

Our stay was really nice and the place well kept. But this changed when we were checking out and had to strip our sheets off the bed to take to reception. When doing this we found black mould over the mattress and I’m not talking about a little bit. It’s was truly disgusting and after seeing that, I think Nomads needs to step up and get on top of this as it’s not good enough for how much they charge for a backpackers.

Manage your Expectations

Didn't even get to stay. Was totally let down by the images online and I wasn't even expecting much. Just incase you're thinking of having a peaceful sleep on the cheap - forget about it. They have a rule of no parties, but don't fear, the hostel is attached to a bar that turns into a loud nightclub! Parking is a nightmare and when you say something about it they say "There's street parking" - there's also drunk patrons on the street, I'd rather not. They will talk about everything but a refund. Clearly a trap for backpackers that don't expect much and have nothing to lose when it comes down to it.
