The location was excellent. The room was decent and kitchen was clean when this one older chap was on cleaning duty which means it wasn’t the staff but the messy people using the kitchen. The staff keeping the bathrooms were good. The staff were wonderful and very helpful. All to say, we would stay there again.

Excellent location, and great price-service relation. The kitchen is outstanding and well provided, the bathrooms are always kept in great conditions. The rooms are reasonable in space, a little too hot on summer nights, and each bed has its own curtain and plug light for privacy and comfort. The staff is super friendly.

Very convenient due to its location and well maintained facilities. Spotlessly clean!!. Amazingly nice and helpful staff. Clean rooms although mine was very cold. Quiet and lots of spaces to chill and relax. Very close to major PT stops and stations. I’m a regular guest of this hostel and I like it there

Friendly staff . Very clean. Being so close to mono rail and the train makes it very noisy!!!
Verified review

8/10 Very good

I had a pretty good hostel experience. They had a decently priced breakfast available, and the included wifi was decent. The bathrooms were also decently clean. I would go back. The only problem was that it was overpriced because of a certain pop star being in town when I stayed there.

Prefect location, clean and modern hostel.

The location is excellent, 5 mins walk to southern cross station, prefect for frequent regional travelling. Hostel is within free tram zone so easy to get the CBD by tram. Fairly clean and modern. Lift available to carry suitcases upstairs. Hard to fall asleep when the person moves on the top bunk bed and the whole bed moves. Better if the bed space can be more private. Overall experience is good and will stay again
