In my honest opinion, the kitchen is too small, and the breakfast could have been much better compared to other hostels across Australia. Having only one microwave is not really suitable for a hostel. There is still a lot of room for improvement, but overall, it is a very clean and nice place to stay.

I read a review saying it’s better than sleeping on the streets after staying here for 1 nights that’s highly debatable. The place has no soul.

My top bunk was falling apart. There were loose metal strips that fell on the ground. There is no atmosphere and no where to relax. Other places for similar price are way better. I felt uncomfortable there for the duration of my stay and checked out early.

I had my stay for 4 nights (Including NYE) and the experience was pretty good. A clean place, comfortable bed (In a 16 shared room), the external noise was unperceivable inside the room, the hostel offers some stuff for breakfast such as cereal, milk, tea, coffee, bread, and enough kitchen facilities to cook during the allowed times.
I'm not sure how many activities they do, but I had the opportunity to do a painting there, on Monday afternoon, with all the tools provided for them.
The only thing to consider is to let the kitchen open all the time, due to the second day of my stay I had a tour early and all my prepared food was in the fridge, and I had to go Coles to buy something because I didn't have access to the kitchen at 7am.
About the location, it is close to the CBD, with loads of shops, restaurants, clubs, transport alternatives among the free PT zone.
I'd definitively come back!

To start with, I didn’t get my access code to the front door for which I had to stay outside and talk over for 20 minutes because the lady In reception was not able to locate my booking. After I got in all the lower beds of my room were taken so I had to take one of the top beds where there was no access to power outlet. I asked if any extension cable was available but there was none.
