Hotel location and cleanness were great. Great public transport nearby with frequent trains and busses running through the area also. Is also great to get to the clubs and pubs if you're into that. Highly recommended, and would stay again!

Colin Australia

Location for me was perfect. The room was comfortable and clean and had a good nights rest and the staff were helpful. Just feel that I wish I had found this one on some of my other stays.

Lesley Australia

Great location with an attached bar! Buy a drink and get a dinner was a great deal!

Klayton Australia

The room had a very nice layout considering there were 18 beds it didn’t feel crowded at all. There was also an outlet and little shelf provided in each bed for phones. There were also large sized lockers provided for each person which is always a pleasant surprise. The laundry facilities were the best I’ve seen in a hostel so far. There were at least 6 washers and 6 dryers so you were never stuck waiting for a machine in a cramped room. The kitchen was also very nice, very large and open and I never felt like I was being crowded or without enough space. The staff were also available to help with anything or help with booking tours and trips.

Mackensea Australia

Close to clubs and first room with ensuite was great

Kewin Australia

Loved the vibe in their bar. Cheap drinks all day long and very nice staff.

Daina Canada

The hostel is located in a convenient location. The free breakfast is a great touch and there is a free drink at 8pm.

Rina United States of America

Clean dorms, great chill out space in lobby, kitchen was spacious and clean

Chelsea United States of America

They have really cool reception and spacious room with really great bunk bed system.

Putri Australia

The reception is very modern and comfy. Their staff is very helpful too. My room was very small and stuffed though... I think it was too small for 8 beds.... Not enough privacy at all and no space for luggage. I would choose something else next time

  • How can they discriminate, and refuse Australians accommodation. Not all people have a passport. A driver's license isgood enough for 5star establishments but not your 2bit slum surrounded by drugaddictz

    We require passports for all guests checking in to a dorm room. This applies to all guests, regardless of country of origin and is a policy that we have in place to ensure the security for our guests in shared accommodation. Drivers license ID is acceptable for any reservations in private rooms
