Auberge très bien située et dans un cadre très agréable. Malheureusement l accueil est très moyen et les matelas très mous. Par ailleurs ils accueillent des personnes qui n ont rien à faire dans ce genre d établissement et vous pourrissent la nuit! Alcooliques et vieux routards en fin de route

Lovely, low-key, respectful experience. Very well equipped with all the necessary items including coffee, dishes, fridge and stove, shampoo, body wash etc. I felt totally comfortable and safe. I was well-accepted even though I am 40 or 50 years older than most of the guests. Well-situated… close to beach in one direction and shopping in the other. A shining example of a friendly, well-equipped, well-situated hostel experience.

An acceptable option

Overall, I can’t complain too much. It wasn’t the cleanest place. According to the photos, it looked to be a better environment than it was once I arrived. Definitely needs some maintenance upkeep.

pod stay

Free parking and 13 no Ute walk dron tfge beach. Across from the library and bus line right in front. Gate is a little tricky to navigate, but awesome location and staff. Clean and full kitchen. Lucked out when they were hosting a mixer so I got free good and drink + networking with tech industry folks. pods were nice....

As skinny as I am, the toilet was too tiny to conveniently use or sit. I am sorry for people with opposite body sizes.

N'y allez pas.... nous n'avions pas vu les commentaires Google avant mais c'est connu depuis un moment visiblement il y a des bed bugs partout..... nous avions des boutons partout sur le corps. Une grosse galère pour s'en debarasser.... De plus l'endroit est globalement très sale. La porte des toilettes ne ferme pas on voit à travers et on entend tout depuis les lits... Salle de bain pareil! Les lits n'ont même pas de rideau pour un minimum d'intimité. A fuir !!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The facility had lots of great books and furniture. The area does have some decent dining options but that’s the only positive part. Employees and their associates were rude and verbally offensive. The pods were full of insects and you can expect bug bites. The microwave in the front does not work and the grass was overgrown. At night, they left all of the doors open and turned on the lights - causing more insects to go into the pods. Laundry was ruined by employee.

Again for the second time my daughter reserved at any PodShare … when she get there… it was dissapointment …they asked her to leave the premises immediately! I don’t know what’s going on but it seems any PodShare she reserved won’t accept her?

Even though I paid for 2 nights stay in advance, after first night of stay, I went out during the day and when returned in the evening for second night stay, I found someone moved my bed thinking I checked out. The front desk apologized and explained someone made the mistake. WiFi was excellent. Cable was not working in TV area. But watching dvd movie was hard because TV's sound was not working. But someone at front desk came and fixed the problem after 45 minutes.

Wouldnt stay again.

Maybe in its prime this place was nice, it has a good idea, but its unfortunatly past its prime and terribly maintained. For the price it was totally not worth it, might as well pay a little more and get something nicer and actually be able to sleep, or pay nothing and sleep on the beach. It is one of those places where you avoid touching anything. For like 25 people there are 3 bathrooms, one with out a door, one that is covered in urine and one with no toilet paper. Nice. If im going to macdonalds just to use the bathroom, and cant sleep due to the fans which make the place sound like a factory at night, what am i actually paying for? If you have a car your better off sleeping in it then coming here.
They really should just throw out that ping pong table..
