Showers were moldy, toilets were gross, kitchen wasn’t big enough and never clean. The staff were nice but they need more of them. My door code stopped working and nobody was there to fix it. It’s located down an alley off Fitzroy which is also used as a toilet.
No privacy but the people staying in the shared room was awesome very lovely. Place was clean. Very limited though no towel, no curtain just a bed that moved and squecked. No room for property.

You get what you pay for in cleanliness
Very basic hostel with some big flaws. Not well signposted and confusing to find as it's in an alley off the street.
My bed sheet was horribly bobbled and didn't seem clean. I found someone else's hair in it... There was dirt and dust all around the sides and under the bed. Floor seemed very dirty.
Reception is only manned at certain times a day. There is a sign that says the supposed times but even during these times I saw it was empty sometimes.
Kitchen was messy and dirty with used pans and plates everywhere and lots of fruit flies. All cupboards and fridge space seemed to be full and people didn't clean up after themselves.
No common area. Only a couple of couches in the reception and a table and 4 chairs in the kitchen.
I stayed in a 6 bed dorm. It was very small but there were only 3 of us in there. The in room lockers didn't use padlocks but instead a key you had to pay a $20 deposit for at reception.
Only had 4 toilets and 4 showers for the entire hostel. The water system for the shower wasn't good. If anyone used the sink during your shower all the hot or cold water in the shower would cut out and you'd be freezing or burnt. Fans were also broken so the super hot water steamed up the entire room.
if you have a low budget, this place might be perfect to stay. the location couldn’t doubt! it’s close to the st kilda beach also the bus stop is effortless.
if you comfort with party-backpacker life style. this place would be homey and you would meet a new friends from many countries.
loud music all night, smell kinda weed everywhere, also there’s no privacy at all.
better take more money off to get a better place to stay.
cleanness are worse!
the room is pretty enough for people and not that really crowd.
there’s no privacy cause even though you get a secret door code but i dont know why many people can come and go, even can sleep wherever they like.
Unable to gain access into the property. Wotif did it fulfil their obligation in helping me
