The bed had a curtain for privacy. It's own light fitting and a charger which was impressive. The television was big.


.
My door pass to get into my room didn't work. There was no room for my luggage the room was small with no storage space. There was people everywhere. The place smelt like vapes and weed

For this property it is a cool and cheap place to stay if you are on a budget. But one thing that threw me off about the place was when I left to go out one day I left my suitcase in the room and when I returned later that day the door was open meaning anyone could walk in and take things from my suitcase. I’m going to guess that it was being cleaned and good thing nothing was taken and that I had my bag full of my more important things on me, but it made me see this property in a poor light.

I liked the quietness of the room. It was cheap. The top bunk was comfortable but unstable it moved as I was getting up.
The room was crowded. No space people's belongings everywhere.
The television had no batteries so you couldn't watch it.
People where everywhere.
The toilets where messy with flies and a lone spare button and hair the ladies and unisex. Limited charging ports. It was a disgrace.

This hostel should get a award for going great to rapidly getting worse with time instead of improving. The receptionist and cleaner wasn't the originals and I liked the original workers better bring them back.

Often messy common areas with dirty bathrooms. Not to mention the guests rolling joints in the main common area at around 9-10pm ensuring that half the building was covered in weed stench. Will not be going back.

Not clean and didn’t change the sheets

This hostel was gross. It didn’t have cleaners come in to clean the communal showers or bathrooms (which are right beside eachother so the smell when you’re showering isn’t nice). The front desk staff were in charge of cleaning the kitchen but they didn’t sanitize anything just wash the dishes and wipe down the counter near the sink. Further someone in our 6 bedroom checked out and they didn’t change the sheets before the next person checked in so they slept on their dirty sheets.
The common area was nice and big and good to meet people in. However, there were many older people in the common areas partying that were not staying in the hostel.
I wouldn’t recommend this hostel.

Fantastic place it felt like staying with old mates. Social spaces are cleaned everyday and staff are super friendly. I ended up extending my stay because of how nice it was. The pool table and xbox was a massive bonus. They’re very welcoming to backpackers and those looking for a longer stay. 11/10 would recommend to a friend

As I entered the building I immediately noticed that it was very cold and all heating in common areas were switched off. We slept in a cold room for the first night but given a space heater for the rest of our stay.
One of the staff members kindly switched on the heating in common areas and another switched it off again! In winter, in Melbourne!

Bedding was absolutely disgusting, had hair and snot all through it aswell as dirt. The bed was comfy though. The blinds are terrible, they look good but in the morning the room is bright . One of the windows wouldn’t close aswell (had fly screen) the window under had a heater through it but had a massive gap above it (no fly screen) so bugs can come in. The whole night we couldn’t sleep as the noise was really bad from traffic. I suggest buying new blinds that properly cover the windows and block the light aswell as fixing the windows.

The female bathroom was nice but was absolutely disgusting on the floor, there was hair and dust everywhere and after having a shower and walking on the tiles I was leaving brown footprints everywhere. The floor needs a good sweep and mop, the tiles are new but needs a scrub as there is dust all over them.

This property is unfit for everyone.The noise never stops
Manager or staff are nowhere to be seen .With the money they charge should have at list a wardrobe in the room and free to air television should be provided.I should not have to get pay tv to watch the news.In all a very desapointed customer

Good location and price

Easy to check in, good public transport options, I stayed here as I had surgery the next morning and it was close to the hospital. Kitchen area was amazing, the females toilet/shower ran out of toilet paper and needs a good regular clean, my bed was comfortable and definitely did the job for what I was after. My room was very quiet and I heard no traffic noise, even though it’s on Punt Road. Loved the artwork.
