“Good”

The location was very nice, everything important is just minutes away. We had a private room, the beds were a bit uncomfortable and the room was much smaller than expected. Otherwise everything was in very good condition.

love that it’s located directly in cbd and across the train station! kinda looks chaotic, could use a little bit of a makeover (inside and outside building) but still very comfortable, you’ve got everything you need and very good location. very friendly staff too :)

Reception staff very friendly& obliging.Room good, hostel let down by kitchen & eating area.Had a think about this & decided it might be because you use young male backpackers to clean & look after these areas. We also stayed at the YHA Freo prison hostel where the kitchen & eating areas were always clean & tidy. Why the difference? Maybe because Freo had paid, permanent staff who knew what hygiene standards to maintain.

The hostel localisation was nice in center and next to train station. And when there is some problem, it s solve quickly ( run out off hot water fixed in one day)

Good hostel except for dirty kitchen - more the fault of users than owners, but very unhygienic.
