The inn was in a great location and close to everywhere you want to go in the centre of the city. Walkable to train station and Elizabeth Quay and all the food service. The facilities in the inn were reasonable as if you want to cook, the fridge and kitchen were available with a reasonable price.

Very close to the city centre. Rates compare very very well with sorrounding accomodation. Cheaper than most. Very close to trains and busses. Starting here travelling the rest of the city is extremely easy. Best place to be.

Very easy to access, super convenient. Mostly clean facilities, only issue was the dodgy looking splatters of "gunk" on the desk in my room. I'm more than happy to stay again, though.

The location is good, close to public transportation, supermarkets and restaurants. I booked hoping to be able to use kitchen facilities but it was not possible. The refrigerators were full and overflowing, the kitchen felt unhygienic. I guess it gets cleaned but there's a lot of people staying there.

Good hostel environment with single/double rooms as well as shared dorms. Bathrooms at the end of the corridor were clean and good apart from towels lying on the floor. Well appointed common room and kitchen and even a small reading room on the 1st floor. Location and price excellent.

Nicest hostels I’ve ever stayed. it’s clean and staff is very friendly. Outside can be pretty noisy at night to early morning and really hard to sleep. There are so many good restaurants outside and also woolies is in walking distance. And also the light feature for the room was pretty awesome. ( you have to put your key card in a key card holder to turn on the lights and when you walk out the room you can walk out the room and take the key with you and light turned off automatically).

Great hostel
Booked one night to see how it was, ended up extending for the long weekend! 4 bed dorm, beds so comfy, clean towel provided. Bathrooms always clean and not too busy. Rooms are near a main road, although I'm a light sleeper my room was further away from the noise. Air conditioning made me lazy in the heat, didn't want to leave my room! Didn't really use communal areas, however was told by my female roommates the guys can be creepy. Wifi in the room not great, which is a shame as I wanted to book a private room for the rest of the week but needed reliable Internet!

Beds were good. Floor in the disgusting as they have not been cleaned in forever and we had to wear flip flops not to get the dirtiest feet ever. Toilets were fine and clean. Kitchen was the most disgusting hostel kitchen I had ever experienced. Filled with people’s used pots in the sink making it impossible to clean yours when you’re done (and also to find something usable that you didn’t have to clean up first). Also, the floor was terribly dirty and the kitchen itself not clean at all. The location is very good though. I would NOT recommend this hostel.

The pictures make this place look a lot nicer thsn it really is. If more attention was spent in customer sevice and keeping the place up, ir might be a good place to stay. Would not recommend.
