I had sent an email prior to arrival about parking and bedding and nobody responded when we arrived all the parking was taken and it cost an extra $30 for parking down the street. It didnt feel overly clean and the shower was cold water in the morning.

I had a quick overnight after 2 very long travel days without much sleep. I arrived in the CBD at 8am and was able to store my luggage in order to explore the city before check-in. I booked a private room to get some rest before travelling on and it was excellent. The bed was clean and comfy, and the window opened for fresh air. Although the room was right off the kitchen, it was quiet after 9pm and through the night. The location was fabulous, just a short walk to Cuba street and all the funky shops and cafes. I even walked to the harbour and to the Botanic gardens. I didn’t do any cooking, but I really appreciated the hot water on demand for my tea! The staff were great. The property and rooms are “well used” and could use some freshening up, but bathrooms were cleaned regularly. I would definitely stay there again! Thank you.

Our room was spacious and very clean. The staff are outstanding. They are helpful and hard working to make the hostel homely. The kitchen was well resourced and clean. Facilities were great with plenty of spaces to chill . The location is outstanding for walking everywhere with a supermarket and restaurants nearby. We loved staying here.

The kitchen and bathrooms were cramped and often full. But, the location and staff were wonderful. The room was clean. The hostel was just full and could have used slightly better designed facilities to accommodate the crowd on hand.

Great place for young and fit travellers. I would not recommend for families, the no ensuite bathroom was manageable for 2 nights. It was great for what it is. Took me back to my younger YHA days.

It's located on very steep street. Bathroom and bedroom was clean. Window hinge was broken and I couldn't close window properly and cold air was coming in. My room was located by the door to go down stairs, so it was noisy. But very handy location and fit for my purpose.
