I adore this hostel! It is set up like an actual motel, which I really enjoyed. It's nice to be able to walk out your door and be right outside with everyone else staying there. People are always hanging out at the picnic tables downstairs, and it's so easy to just step outside and make friends. Definitely a fun place... More

I stayed in a private room with my boyfriend for 4 nights. It's a great location in St Kildas, just a short stroll to the beach, the main street and the tram which has you in the city centre in 20 mins. The room was basic, very clean and had a tv. Reception opened 24/7 and sells bottled water, soft... More

The staff were great, the beds were comfy, and the bathrooms were clean. The kitchen was a mess, no covering on the cold, concrete floor. The guests made LOTS of noise and were drunk... More
