Went there with my son to watch ACDC. The staff were super friendly, the rooms were spotless and we even managed to squeeze out car in the parking.

The hostel is nice But what I really want to highlight is the attention of the receptionist, Joao, because he very kindly resolved a problem for me. He made me feel very comfortable during my stay, and for that reason, I will return. I know the staff cares about the well-being of the guests. Thank you Joao!!!

A very nice hostel. Many common areas, ideal when there are so many people walking around so as not to be crowded. We were in a private room so we didn't have much noise, ideal. The only thing that makes me remove a star is that the parking lot is very small (only 5/6 cars), which is not enough for so many guests.

Location is pretty standard for most hostels. It's slightly farther outside of the downtown but closer to Southbank. The atmosphere is very social and welcoming with something for everyone.

Darryl was incredibly kind and welcoming. When I first checked in, he took the time to explain the room and bathroom facilities in detail, which really helped. Thanks to him, I had a very comfortable and satisfying stay.

It came as a huge surprise (not expecting much for 'backpackers') in actual fact, middle aged siblings feeling like we'd stick out like sore thumbs, was the actual opposite.

The staff at this hostel were lovely and in terms of value for money it’s alright for quite an affordable hostel. However, the bathrooms didn’t have any hand soap in them for the 3 days that I stayed there and the kitchen was really dirty so I didn’t really want to cook in there. There were also quite a lot of long term stayers, which meant the rooms were quite messy with stuff everywhere. Location is really good though and the pool and outside areas are nice to relax.

This place wasn’t the worst hostel we’ve been to in Australia, but it wasn’t that far off to be completely honest…

I absolutely loved my stay here! The hostel is spotless, stylish, and has all the amenities you could need. There are plenty of inviting common areas, perfect for relaxing or meeting new people. The staff is always friendly and eager to help. In particular, Allison at the reception was extremely helpful and understanding of my needs. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it🫶🌟
