One of the best Hostel I have stayed in the recent past, the Hostel is sparkling clean, neat and fresh. The bed is fantastic with a comforter to keep you warm during the winter. The air-conditioner is maintained well. The reception guy is cool and helpful. The online checking method and MobilePASS key is cool And save us from losing the key and also the best use of the technology. The common area is the highlight of the Hostel. It’s a very happening place where people sit around chat, make friends network or do some activity or even games for that matter. I’ve never seen a kitchen of this size in any Hostel. I stayed till date or 50 countries. The kitchen is massive, and all the inmates can cook their meals. All the provisions are inside. The cutlery bowl plate, cooking vessels and even storage is ample. The bathroom needs special mention as they’re super clean and fresh and maintained at a fantastic level.

Location was excellent. I was mainly apprehensive about the potential noise keeping me up at night, but it only bothered me on the last day of my three-night stay, possibly because I was on the highest room floor (11th floor). There's a supermarket just across the road and a tram stop right in front of it. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

The staff is amazing, there are events almost every day, the beds are very comfortable, and they have curtains, so you get some privacy even in the dorm rooms. Plus, you're right by the beach!!

Great staff, especially Luke. Give that man a pay rise. I have to say, Luke's check-in performance was the highlight of our stay! Move over, stand-up comedians, we've got a new star in town! Luke not only checked us in swiftly, but he did it with such flair and enthusiasm that I half expected a drumroll and confetti. His helpfulness reached superhero levels - I'm pretty sure he could find a needle in a haystack blindfolded. Need extra towels? Luke's got you. Want insider tips for the city? He's your guy. Need a recommendation for dinner? Luke practically moonlights as a culinary critic. And let's not forget the bar! If Luke were a drink, he'd be a mix of charm, wit, and a dash of mischief. In short, Luke turned what could have been a regular check-in into a sidesplitting, unforgettable experience. Move over, world, because Luke's in town, and he's checking guests in like a rockstar. Bravo, Luke, Bravo! 🎤🍸

Everything available for such low price. Breakfast is good and bathrooms are clean. They have a well equipped kitchen and a TV room. There's a bar downstairs. If you want a cheap stay option, then there's nothing better than this.

Very well run Super clean and excellent showers.Very central bank smack in the middle of the C B D.. Clearly the best hostel I have stayed at couldn't fault it in any way...An exceptionally good place to stay maybe a fraction more expensive than some hostels but absolutely worth it..

Location was good. Close to tram line. Lots of cafes near by. I only had one interaction with staff on check in and she was friendly. There was aircon and a fan in the room which helped with comfort levels on the really hot night I was there. Size of the room was good. Seems like quite a good place for backpackers and people wanting to meet new people as there are ample spaces to interact with others (at the pool table, the lounge area, the tables scattered around the hostel).

Great location . Comfortable double private room. I choose this backpackers for my 18 year old daughter who was travelling alone based on previous reviews that said it was ideal for solo travellers. She was able to meet people easily and said that both the staff and the quests were super friendly and she felt very safe. The party atmosphere helped 😃

I was surprised by how quiet it was (as backpacker hostels when I was visiting America tended to be very noisy). The lockers were a useful safety feature which I hadn't expected - it meant I could leave stuff in my dorm room.
