Great experience!

Nicest hostel I’ve stayed in! Very clean and well managed. Would stay here again. Only downside is that the bathroom doors make a lot of noise when you open them so that would wake me up in the middle of the night since the walls to the hallway are very thin.

Great design of the room, really high quality for the price. Comfy bed, only issue was it was pretty noisy but that’s what you get on a Friday night. A gap filler under the door would help massively. Great location and smooth check in and out - don’t even need to speak to anyone at all.

8/10 Very good

Great queen bed sized accomodation , clean , good sized with all the amenities. Ensuite bathroom was sufficient although the room I stayed in required the handy man to fix the wc paper holder as it couldn't hold the roll eproperly and the vent grills in the bathroom require cleaning they are full of dirt / dust and grime and while these are up high out of eyesight, it reflects poorly on the overall aesthetic I'm sure management are trying to upheld !

6/10 Good

Bed, room, lounge is comfy. Problem is they didnt have a fan for when the temperature is warm so there's a bit of struggle there. Also its a bit noisy when other rooms shut their door specially at night. Youll hear it all from bed. Otherwise its all not too bad.

6/10 Good

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The premises and rooms were fairly clean and fresh. We got a great discount so the price was great for Melbourne with a family of 4. The atmosphere was friendly and full of excited back packers. The downside was the noise. We barely slept because there was a loud refrigeration type motor that kept switching on and off all night. And there was a man who was yelling somewhere nearby (it felt like underneath our window) all night at random intervals as well. Otherwise it would have been a good cheap accommodation option.
