3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2010

This is actually a good place to stay. I met very good people here. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me though I found she's a little bit weird in the beginning.

“Great Location but hostel cleaniless is not up to standard”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2009

The hostile is in a great location for transportation, trams right across the street. Another plus, Victoria Markets also across the street, inexpensive food prices. Lots of restarunants, bars, nite life across the street. The hostile is not the cheapest or the most expensive but I love it here because I made tons of friends. I have experienced food from... More
