I liked how everyone looked out for everyone. There was a airconditioning in the rooms and it was quite. Also bathroom was private even the unisex ones.
Dislike tissues on the ground dirty bathroom with hair all around it.

The bedding did not smell good and the pillows were uncomfortable. Also the place where the private room is located you can hear all the noise from the living room so I could not rest very well.
The staff was very friendly

Fantastic place it felt like staying with old mates. Social spaces are cleaned everyday and staff are super friendly. I ended up extending my stay because of how nice it was. The pool table and xbox was a massive bonus. They’re very welcoming to backpackers and those looking for a longer stay. 11/10 would recommend to a friend

Not clean and didn’t change the sheets
This hostel was gross. It didn’t have cleaners come in to clean the communal showers or bathrooms (which are right beside eachother so the smell when you’re showering isn’t nice). The front desk staff were in charge of cleaning the kitchen but they didn’t sanitize anything just wash the dishes and wipe down the counter near the sink. Further someone in our 6 bedroom checked out and they didn’t change the sheets before the next person checked in so they slept on their dirty sheets.
The common area was nice and big and good to meet people in. However, there were many older people in the common areas partying that were not staying in the hostel.
I wouldn’t recommend this hostel.

My partner and I both arrived quite late, but despite Tim being out, he was still super helpful with getting us checked in and making sure we were comfortable, and was extremely polite throughout our stay.
The room was clean and tidy, and all of the services worked well. Would stay again!

As I entered the building I immediately noticed that it was very cold and all heating in common areas were switched off. We slept in a cold room for the first night but given a space heater for the rest of our stay.
One of the staff members kindly switched on the heating in common areas and another switched it off again! In winter, in Melbourne!
