Rooms were spacious enough with free lockers although you'll need your own padlock. Reception staff very friendly, the bar downstairs was nice. Within walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Downsides were only one bathroom per room, opposed to communal bathrooms so can be a pain if someone in the room takes ages in the bathroom! Also quite a lot... More

We had planned to stay here for just one week, but ended up staying for five weeks instead. This is by far the best hostel we have stayed at in Australia (and we have stayed at over 20)! The rooms were cleaned everyday, and the bathroom in our room was spectacular. The staff was always helpful, and the bar at... More

Stayed for two nights at the backpackers. This was the second backpackers I've ever stayed at, and I really didn't have high expectations. . Rooms were set out nice.

Stayed here for 4 nights and have no complaints. The hostel's in a great location with everything in St Kilda easy to get to. Loved the bar, food and free breakfast. Comfortable place to stay for a good price.

Great place. Clean tidy. A little noisy at night at wknd. Breakfast is yummy. Bar deals are fab. $5 pizzas are delicious. id pay more than $5 for them. i stayed in dorm and private and you get great value. bathrooms are lovely and modern. Only thing I'd change is give free wifi to guests.

We only stayed for a few nights but everything was perfect. The staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean and comfortable, we were asked if the room needed servicing in the mornings too. Chantel on reception was really helpful, and Jimmy in the kitchen was great. The food was really good value, with different... More
