Very clean for a hostel type accommodation. convenient location. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm with private bathroom, so can;t comment on the bigger dorms. YMMA It was rather loud thou on a sat night. Not sure whether the noise was from its own pub or somewhere else. there was only 1 double electrical outlet to serve 4 of us, thus knocking 1 star off the amenities rating.

Clean, comfortable and friendly
It was clean and comfortable. The staff were nice and friendly. It’ll be even better if they can specify on what terms WiFi will be free and otherwise how much it’ll cost before booking. Because I just saw “free wifi” on hotels.com but it wasn’t free for me actually.

Had a wonderful stay over night at the Urban, the reception staff were very helpful, the room was very clean and comfortable. Only complaint is that the outside noise was annoying! but other than that I really enjoyed the stay thank you.

Disappointed in the quality of the room for what I paid for it. Very basic furnishings. Big crack in wall near window. Needs sprucing up. Bed very comfy, though. Bathroom nice and clean.

Faulty Smoke alarm went off 3 times between 3 & 4 am This would have not been so bad if there was not an extra $100 sur charge on the room because it was an event weekend in Melbourne
