Great and friendly reception service and a bonus drink voucher on check-in! The only thing I wish they did not close the rooftop area at night as it is the only comfortable and quiet place to sit down and work on computer. Have not had a chance to check out the new TV room. ##### Sergey Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2019 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 9 Jan 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Vary far awayfrom tram ststion long walk.Lob by looks very different from picture of web-site.

Great area and social activity. Staff were great. The hostel was a bit run down and dirty, not to mention messy roommates that exacerbated the problem. There are roaches and other insects... I was bitten six times on one arm and it really gave me the heebie geebies! I left a day early because I couldn’t take another night there. Great for others, just not for me. ##### Jessica Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 16 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location and free welcome beer Good location, within walking distance of the beach and town centre.

Each dorm has its own bathroom which I find a lot better than larger shared bathrooms. Kept well clean and tidy. ##### George Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 30 Oct 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very dirty I ended up sick after a week The place smelled like drugs immediately when I walked in my room. I was gagging and wanted to leave but had prepaid and got there at 10 at night so it was too late to leave. My bed had been used and not made properly and the bathroom was constantly flooded with nowhere clean to place my things. The German girl at the front desk was very rude when I checked in and asked about parking though the other guys at the front desk seemed ok. Luckily some nice people were in my room or I would have rated this place a 0. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Lyn 18 Oct 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ideal location stayed 4 nights, felt safe, front desk manned 24 hours, spacious room, roof top is excellent, ideal location, easy walking distance to Acland Street St. Kilda, Skybus direct to Tullamarine directly across the road, they have got all the bases covered. ##### Lyn Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2017 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Terrible 29 Sept 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Dirty rooms!!!! it was a good 5 days night but the beds really terrible dirty also carpets as well. Beds were comfortable. Shower needs to be detailed cleaning. The lights are not enought for each room. Reception was not helpful. This place was like a bunch of student and teenages club. ##### Terrible Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 Sept 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Would Stay Again Kind and helpful staff, fun bar with decent specials for hostel guests. As this was my first time in a hostel, I'm not sure I could compare it to anything, but it seemed mostly clean. Bathrooms could use a little more love, but that's what flip flops (thongs) are for. There is a team of hostel guests that does most of the cleaning for free accommodation, so you can't expect 5-star cleanliness from people who don't care/are only doing it for the free stay. The area isn't bad - just a block or so away from a Coles grocery store, and Acland street which is full of shops, cafes, banks, and bars. And just past that is the ocean. About a 15 minute walk to St Kilda pier, where, if you're lucky, you can see penguins at night :) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### giorgio 23 Sept 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ideale per brevi soggiorni ostello ideale per brevi soggiorni,ambiente rilassante con possibilità di conoscere giramondo, camere pulite e silenziose,gabinetto pulitissimo. ##### giorgio Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daouda D 5 Sept 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Merci.

At the same time, we still got to meet a few of the international people in the pub downstairs, played some trivia and ate there too. The food and atmosphere in the pub are awesome. Short walk to Acland street and the Esplanade and a 25 minute tram ride into the city. Great staff as well, I'll gladly stay again.\*\*\*\*\* ##### Gabby Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracey 19 Jun 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Loved the location.....

CBD. 600m to Luna Park: great location & lots of street parking overnight for cars: well lighted. Room is clean, large, had a balcony, private & HOTEL-quality bathroom. Negative: our private rooms are on the 3rd floor with a night club on the 4th floor. We slept on a TUES 25-Apr-17 & the night club was NOT operational. But the owner on the 4th floor was cleaning & active @ 0200hr. With a thin roof & likely NOT made of solid concrete, our sleep were broken a few times. When the club is operating, I think sleeping will be tested: read other reviews. Also, night internet was NOT operational because it could NOT cope with many users. Morning access was fine for low data usage, eg reading emails. I will book again, but NOT on weekends or when the night-club is operating. ##### Verified traveller Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### J 6 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort I had a very nice clean room with a big attached bath.
