“Very good for the value, would definitely recommend to others but some room for small improvements”

눉The bar closed earlier than I thought it would have. We only had a thin sheet to sleep with and the pillows were lumpy. We didn't have the fridge that was promised in the summary of the booking and a microwave and toaster would have been a good bonus instead of having to go to the shared kitchen area.
눇The convenience of the xbase bar, the value of the room and the service of the staff.

“Worst backpacker hostel experience ever.”

눉This was probably my worst experience ever through booking.com. I've stayed in hostels before, and even though I'm a bit older and not a typical backpacker, it is usually OK and offers good value for money and a great way to socialize, with a bed for a good night's sleep at the end of the night. Not here. Do NOT come here if you want to sleep. This "resort" is a run-down, old school-holiday type place, full of your typical Arlie Beach partyheads. I don't mind a good party, and was even looking forward to soaking up the atmosphere, but here, all the people want to do is shout from the top of their lungs and play douchy music on their Bluetooth speakers. We were kept up by our upstairs neighbours until 2 am, because after we asked them to keep the shouting and music down so we could sleep, they decided to upgrade to a full on rave party right above our heads, banging their feet on the paper thin floor/ceiling on purpose. In the end it got so bad we had no choice but to call night security to shut them down under threat of eviction! I hated to be "that guy", but if left without options and you have to catch a boat to the whitsundays at 6:30am...you do anything to get a little sleep. When complaining about thisat the reception the next day, we got neither an apology nor a potential solution offered, just confused hungover looks. We just had to take our chances, go to bed early, and hope they stayed out long enough so we could just leave if they decided to start the party again...not a fun thing to do on holidays... Luckily for us they decided to keep it down the 2nd night. The room itself is old, the aircon and plumbing both sound like a jet taking off, and the cabinets are bolted shut. The shower was cold in the morning and constantly leaked. So as I said in the beginning: worst experience via booking.com ever.

눉We chose this particular accommodation because of the Genius perks, as we knew we would need early check in and late check out. Despite sending requests for both no one got back to us to confirm. On arrival we mentioned this but were told, quite rudely that they do not offer early check in or late check out. When I suggested they remove this option to avoid confusion they said it was booking.coms fault, which I very much doubt as we have stayed in many other places that are part of the genius offers, that offer just check in or check out or neither, so not sure why this place is unable to do the same!? Despite being told we were being put in a "good" room, it was very disappointing. The shower had good pressure, but sadly could not be turned off properly, so had to be left constantly running - this was obviously noisy at night and left the bathroom constantly damp and musty. The bathroom was very dirty, with a layer of 'filth' in the sink so thick it obviously has not been cleaned for a very long time. Curtains in the room were too small for the windows, and some of the curtain rails had even broken and just lay on the floor, so the sun shone right into the room from sunrise each day. The communal kitchen area appears to be good but sadly was not. There are 20 sockets in the kitchen/lounge area, but only 2 of them worked, neither of which was convenient to either area so the kettle and microwave had to be used on the floor under a bench, inbetween rounds of device charging for the other guests. The kitchen was VERY dirty. Whilst I appreciate this is partly the responsibility of the guests, staff should be making sure this happens and/or assist where needed. There was a 'free food' box on a shelf - when I pulled it out it was crawling with cockroaches! Suffice to say we did not cook here and spent as little time as we could in the communal areas! There are two pools on site.
눇Good location - on the edge of the main strip for bars, restaurants etc, close to marina for trips and near to lagoon and park areas. Some staff were very friendly and helpful (sadly not all of them).

“The only downside was a bathroom issue which we felt really bad about. I tried to clean it up with”

눉Floor drainage in bathroom needs to be looked at as our bathroom had about .5inch of water that pooled around the toilet after a brief shower and I couldn't see a floor drainage point.
눇Well presented rooms, tidy, but the spa/shower head had a very wide spread and wet the floor surrounding the step up bath/spa and flowed back to around the toilet.

눉They gave our room we booked to someone else, made me show ID to confirmed who I am as they said your already checked in, but obviously didn't do that to the other person, half the lights in our room didn't work, no outside light bulb, no kitchen light, only one light in main area worked, the air con made such a noise you couldn't kept it on couldnt hear TV over air con, very small tv, no bath plug, when I asked for a bath plug I was told to have a shower save water not to use the bath people flood the rooms, I said I specifically booked a room with a spa bath so I could use it, the spa part was disconnect, it took 36 hrs for me to be given a bath plug I think they should refund some of the money we paid, the staff ignored people whom were at reception to book in or ask questions to busy talking about how hung over they we're no customer service skills, I wasn't given receipt for accomodation I have ask three time if they could confirm if the other person was given my details they kept saying they aren't sure, no clean towels provided daily we were given 1 change of towels in four days, room was not as advertised
