"One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in Australia. Rooms were cleaned daily, beds comfortable, bathrooms clean. Kitchen got a big messy at times but do not believe that was at fault of the management but rather the other guests. Was spotless every morning. Lots of utensils, appliances and space to be shared! Reception was super friendly and check in/out was quick and easy! Short walk into city centre and bus stops to access beaches around the corner! "

No toiletries provided (not even a small piece of soap). Mattress was fairly comfortable. Quality is not good, but it is cheap and well located. If all that you need is somewhere to sleep, then it is OK for the money. "

"This place was dirty from the front door in. People obviously smoke inside because it stank too. There were discarded clothes at the front door and inside as well. The ‘room’ had sticky linen and it stank of cigarettes too. The toilet, shower and walls all had mould and were dirty, especially the toilet.

"The booked room was not available and a substitute room was supplied. Should have asked for a refund The bathroom and shower was mouldy, Cockroaches ran across the floor when the door opened Hot water to the shower took 9 minutes to appear on two separate occasions. The curtains covered brick walls. A great experience to teach someone what slum lords get away with Have pictures to prove it all "
