We walked in, not one to book us in, not that that mattered, we couldn't stay there. smelt like dead rats, worse than if you pictured a hovel. We rang the owner, and Wotif rang the owner. Both responses were if people want a clean place to stay, they should go somewhere else. I would be very surprised if Wotif allow this hostel to book through them ever again. ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### sam 30 Oct 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I walk in n check leave in 2 minute with get refund for 2 night go sleep in the park instead ##### sam Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### anna 2 Jan 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities There was no photos online and no refunds for a reason please do not stay here waste of money no toilet paper and very rude owner ##### anna Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Aweke 7 Mar 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nothing ##### Aweke Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### John 4 Oct 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I paid way to much for so little, no toilet paper or anything, grass over grown and everything just so discusting. Id ask for a refund but i dont know how to submit for on. Booked for 2 nights stayed for one and left on the second. ##### John ### 2/10 Terrible #### Hayley 28 Feb 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Quite possibly one of the worst hostels I’ve stayed at in Australia. There’s no signage on the outside of it, so it is quite hard to locate. I wasn’t sent any check in instructions and check in wasn’t until 5pm, so that’s quite inconvenient. The bed that I was put in was right beside the window with a screen that was broken, since the room is on the ground floor, someone could easily access the room. The lockers are also broken so you can’t securely store your stuff. At 2:30am I was woken up by a person moving stuff around right outside the broken window and it was a very scary experience. The cleanliness of the hostel was abysmal. The whole place smelt like cigarette smoke. The bathroom smelled of urine and there was no toilet paper the entirety of my stay. For the price of the room ($100) I was extremely disappointed. Just get a hotel room for that price. ##### Hayley Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kerry 3 Apr 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities When we first approach the backpackers, it looks so rundown. When we walked inside, it was disgusting crammed people sleeping on sofas in the hallways. When we arrive the host tried to get extra money for us because it was the F1 weekend. We paid for three nights Shuriken, it wasn’t enough I said no, she threatened to throw us out after the second night. I refused and showed her the paperwork what said we paid for three nights. After Air second night, they took a bookshelf out of the bedroom and put another stretcher for someone to sleep and made at seven in the bedroom. Your broken toilet you had to walk sideways into the toilet close the door. When you sat down your knees were touchin , and made at seven in the bedroom. Your broken toilet. You had to walk sideways into the toilet close the door. When you sat down you knees were touching the door. No hot water in the shower and also we had to bring our own toilet paper. I wouldn’t recommend this place to My in worst enemies. ##### Kerry Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Emmanuel 4 Oct 2024 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities ##### Emmanuel Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon 4 Apr 2023 ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Arion 30 Mar 2023 ##### Arion Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Izak 20 Feb 2023 ##### Izak Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shehan 28 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great Facility & Service ##### Shehan Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Maarja-Hellen 13 Feb 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Maarja-Hellen Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Was a very tidy room with a comfy bed. A little noisy though eventually the guest's went to sleep ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Anonymous 1 Jan 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We arrived to not have the room allocated, owner was out and the cleaner was trying to get us organised but had no clue where to put us. I'd paid for a twin bed and a single, to find out after the fact that they only had single bunks, we were told we'd be in a room on our own, at 5am in the morning I had a man in his jocks staring at me and then he started screaming abuse at my son telling him to get out of his #@$&ing bed. He was obviously drunk and we were then afraid to go back to sleep. The owner had put him in our room without informing us. The facilities were deplorable, sticky bathroom floor, ripped up linoleum, toilets were filthy with urine sprayed everywhere, on the floor cistern and seat, no paper, poo stains on the toilet, grimy walls. Thick layers of dust everywhere.cardboard where mirrors used to be but were ripped off the walls. The shared kitchen was falling apart from the sink being ducked taped to taps hanging on by a thread. Outside of the property was unkempt with a ripped mattress and couch being out the front. I didn't shower the as there was dirty undies in the shower, wet towels pooling at the base of the shower and the shower was grimy and black. IT is by far the worst hostel/backpackers we have ever stayed at. ##### Anonymous Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 7 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 20 Mar 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My review is 5\* based on its great value for money.

On their advertisement they say you can enter after 7pm, and give a mobile phone number. The person on the phone said no. She also said she would cancel the booking so they didn't take my money. She didn't do that. ##### Lewis Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pan Pacific Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Melbourne.h2432787.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Stuart Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-Mount-Stuart-Hotel.h42645262.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló Royal Beach – All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunny-Beach-Hotels-Barcelo-Royal-Beach.h1695986.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Arlington-Hotel-OConnell-Bridge.h527380.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [Ovolo South Yarra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near South Lakes Safari Zoo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/South-Lakes-Safari-Zoo-Hotels.0-l553248621532493297-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Stockholm Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockholm-Hotels-Sheraton-Stockholm-Hotel.h15932.Hotel-Information) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Melbourne-Airport.h12401.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [Yasuragi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saltsjo-Boo-Hotels-Yasuragi.h2986145.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Southern Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Great-Southern-Hotel-Melbourne.h27851.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hotel Tenby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Park-Hotel-Tenby.h31108597.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Lygon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Lygon-Lodge.h4790050.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bladnoch Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Stewart-Hotels-The-Bladnoch-Inn.h6323702.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Chania (CHQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/chq/london-to-chania) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Leeds (LBA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/lba/edinburgh-to-leeds) > > [Flights from Prestwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/6392/flights-from-prestwick) ### Activities > [Things to do in Broadway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Broadway.d4354.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Split](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/3255/Split) > > [Dubai Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai.d1079.Holidays-City-Breaks)
