Arrived here from staying at 2 brilliant hostels in melbourne and can honestly say I was surprised! From the outside and some reviews it sounds terrible but honestly it's really not!! The kitchen is very much on the small side but clean and not that busy plus you have 2 large fridges to stock your food. The staff are good... More

Avoid like the plague! I don't know where to start, the weirdos that seem to live in the building, the horrifically disgusting bathrooms or the kitchen which is closed for half the time. The "free" wifi is slower than a snail and the breakfast included a crust in the bottom of a bag of bread. The staff are soooo rude,... More

The guy who owns/runs the hostel sleeps in the room behind the reception desk. He sleeps on & off throughout the day/night whenever people not at... More
