It was good value for money and easy to book.

A nice place with a hostel set up, but you have your own room. Has a nice bar below it.

Basic room but for the money it was good, nice and clean

4 out of 5 Stars!
4 out of 5 Stars! Only issues were the pub noise levels, and aircon units outside most bedroom windows. Was very noisy and no screens on windows for summer nights. Food was great, staff were lovely! And very very clean.
Graham, 11-night trip

8/10 Very good

Reasonable price and very clean. A bit loud from noise within the premises whether it was other guests or loud appliances from downstairs at all hours. Please remove the zipties holding signs on the "Slippery when wet" signs on the railing of the staircase to enter the property. I received two very large cuts to my hands caused by the jagged edges of these zipties.

Rough area of Melbourne wouldn’t let my cat stay here, our truck got tagged and room was unclean.
Terese, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel is in a great spot, can be a bit loud of a weekend but they provide ear plugs. Room was cozy and clean. Only complaint was bathrooms were definitely not cleaned daily like the sign said they were. Same paper was on the floor my whole stay and walls were dirty with red and brown stains
Myra, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

As advertised
It is a decent accommodation in a hip area, close enough to CBD. It was good value and clean. My room was spacious but on the side where there is a really busy road, and the property is over a pub, so it was a bit noisy on the friday and saturday, but i used my earplugs and it was fine (the property also provides its own earplugs). A very pleasant stay

Only cold water- bathrooms are quite outdated and gross. However, very safe and convenient. Overpriced for what you get & good luck contacting someone about your booking.
Phoebe, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

You cannot beat the price of this place and it is fine for a night or two. The self check in and self check out service meant that you never talk to a staff member and none is on duty. I found that they did not get to my emails in the lead up to my stay. It is on a major road, and on an intersection so very load. It made it hard to sleep and I required headphones, again you get what you pay and this is very affordable for the area.
Frederick, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Noisy but comfortable
Lovely comfy room, although it is on a noisy, busy cross roads, so light sleeper be warned, especially as accessing the rooms was also noisy with lots of bleeping. Really liked having a shared kitchen, although someone kept eating my biscuits and other guests were smoking in their rooms. 5 toilets were great but 2 of the 3 showers didn't have door let alone locks.

10/10 Exceptional

The sheets in the room smelled a little funny on arrival. However, I washed them and it was chilled. Otherwise, a lovely venue.
Harry, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Appreciate that the room is offered at a budget price, however a single old powerpoint under the bed to run both lamp and fan doubled up gives no access to charge a phone or other device overnight. Not good. Only a pedestal fan for cooling a hot room, and although the window opens, there is no security screen, so felt unsafe to leave open and not acceptable. An air-conditioner is not an unreasonable expectation. Don't mind shared facilities, but sinks should drain, and taps turn off, these facilities are very old and need attention (suggest time for updating).
