10/10 Excellent

This is a fantastic 5 star backpackers to stay. Very convenient location next to Central Station, transport is everywhere you want it, walking distance to local shops and restaurants. Easy to check in and a nice waiting area to wait and relax if you are arrive to early. Rooftop pool and BBQ area was great, I stayed in a Queen Room and the bed was heaven, good size TV also. Noise didn't affect me, and I can't really fault the place at all. Would definitely stay here again
