"Quite possibly one of the worst hostels I’ve stayed at in Australia. There’s no signage on the outside of it, so it is quite hard to locate. I wasn’t sent any check in instructions and check in wasn’t until 5pm, so that’s quite inconvenient. The bed that I was put in was right beside the window with a screen that was broken, since the room is on the ground floor, someone could easily access the room.

"Precisely as expected. I haven’t yet tried the food at the restaurant, but the menu appears both extremely old school and delicious. Its text book kracknell and Kaufman, and the gnocchi sounds amazing "

"We had a lovely view from a high floor. The room was excellent but the bathtub could do with some re-enamelling and a more comfortable sofa would make it perfect. The room facilities were very good with a large fridge and good freezer plus an electric hob and dishwasher. There was also a nearby utility room with a washing machine and dryer. Although not part of the hotel there was an Italian restaurant next door. We enjoyed our stay and would use this hotel again."

"The room was spacious and clean and was in a great location although the outside of the building was a bit deceiving with the area being a bit ‘dirty’, but inside was quite the opposite. Only issue we found was the trains and trams were quite loud and it was not sound proof really at all. "
