The hostel advertises a heated swimming pool which is never heated. Drinking your own alcohol is banned in the hostel grounds and if caught they charge you 2 nights rent which is $66 also even if they suspect you to be drinking they charge you. The bar is over priced for a backpackers bar. The management staff all stick together... More

We stayed here for one night in a privet room and can't really complain about anything as it was a decent room for a cheap price. The room was clean and served it purpose. The bathrooms were fine, nothing about them screamed unclean or amazing. The place was distinctly average but excelent cheap price tag. The only things that were... More

I feel that I need to share my thoughts on this hostel. Usually I don't give bad reviews but I was really disgusted with this place. My initial impression of the staff was great. They were friendly and helpful. But then when I went into the dorm building it immediately reeked of urine. Then I entered my room and it... More

Disgusting, filthy rooms. Dirty bathrooms with no hand dryer or paper towel - which leads me to believe people don't wash their hands. Apparent issues with who 'owns' what bed. During my stay, someone said I was in 'his' bed, and the front desk had been removing the wrong bedding of guests on a regular basis. Kitchen requires you to... More

Nice hostel in walking distance to most of the city´s points of interest and only about two minutes from a coles grocery store, which was a big plus for me. Another big advantage, the hostel offers is free wifi and two PCs for free use, although the connection is often very slow and the stools are way too uncomfortabe. The... More

they harp on about super fast broadband... Don't expect to get any connection in the peak times! They have not catered for "the modern era"... Rooms are OK, showers and toilets are so busy that the cleaners can't keep up, so don't expect spotless!!!! Bar... "Fiddlers Elbow" is a young persons place to get pissed! there is no tolerance for... More

Havd stayed here twice as a couple while backpacking, while not the best hostel its not the worst! Perks- close to station, 20 min walk to south bank and near coles and restaurants bar cinema across the road on caxton street! Great view of city from rooftop pool! Staff friendly and free wifi which is rare in australia! Bad points!... More

I stayed here on two separate occasions, once in a 6 person room with a fan and once in the 30 person room with fans. The 6-person room: Fan was broken, it blew, but couldn't oscillate. Window looked out into the courtyard/parking lot where people often walked past or gathered to smoke, often being very loud. 30-person room: Bed was... More

Myself and my partner only stayed here for a few nights but we thought it was ok! Our room was clean although the bathrooms should be cleaned more often. The kitchen was clean but got very busy. The location is good, there is a supermarket literally 5 minutes across the street as well as a few nice places to eat,... More
