The hostel has neat and spacious rooms accessible only with a proximity card, but lacks power outlets. The rooms are lovely with clean bedding, making for a comfortable stay. Some improvements could be made for better convenience. The service is generally good, but some staff interactions were unfriendly. The location is cool and convenient, with easy access to public transport and city center. Adequate dining options are available, though a bit limited. The facilities are sufficient for a pleasant stay.

The hostel is conveniently located next to Victoria market and close to the city center, making it a good base for exploring. However, the rooms were a bit messy with personal items scattered around, and some maintenance issues like a hole in the window. The service was efficient but could be more welcoming. The dining options were satisfactory but lacked variety in supplies. The location was excellent with easy access to transportation and markets.

I was quite impressed with the hotel's location, being conveniently close to shops and trams. The staff were really nice and helpful, creating a positive atmosphere. However, the room felt a bit cramped and the cleanliness of the private bathroom was disappointing. The lack of ventilation was also a concern, especially for health reasons.

The hostel offers amazing spacious rooms with plenty of power outlets and individual lamps at each bed. However, the strong stinky smell from other guests' belongings and the inconvenience of the distant ladies' bathroom on the 4th floor are definite drawbacks.

The hostel is budget-friendly and in a fairly convenient location near the Victoria Market. The rooms can be small and sometimes have a lingering smell, especially with long-term backpackers around. The staff, while friendly, might not fully grasp customer service. The dining options are basic but convenient. Overall, a decent stay for the price.

The hotel offers really nice rooms, especially for the price, but cleanliness can be an issue. The lack of side rails on the top bunk affected my comfort during the stay. The service was friendly overall, but there were incidents like staff walking into rooms without knocking. The location is excellent, close to the CBD and Queen Victoria Market, ideal for exploring the area. The dining options, though sufficient for guests, have room for improvement. The facilities were adequate, but with some minor inconveniences.
