Toilets unclean, nil appropriate disposal options for sanitary products, dodgy doors to rooms and loud guests at all hours. Ok for one night, but wouldn’t recommend for anything longer! Reception staff were all pleasant!

Friendly service

We were allowed to check-in 4 hours early. Really great! The hotel is definitely not as bad as some of the reviews are stating. However there's still room for improvements :) The male toilets were disgusting and ran out of toilet paper during the night. The rooms were really worn down
Verified review

6/10 Good

Despite the best efforts of the staff, this place was completely compromised by the clientele. Recently renovated bathrooms were left in an appalling state by those using and I saw faeces in places I have never seen it before in my life. It's a shame because the hostel is well located and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Pretty dirty, old carpet and bad maintenance... a lot of homeless around and inside that hotel with mental condition. I had room by myself, it was a relief only for that😇
Verified review

6/10 Good

I liked the fact everyone looked out for each other a lot of sweetness. It was quite and even though I was on top bunk mattress was comfortable. I disliked the dodgy tight key that didn't work to room. I was the only women in a room full of 7 man. For a younger person this would make some nervous. The receptionist was so cold didn't even smile when I cracked a joke didn't even greet you as you entered place very rude Asian the older Asian who was working evenings the younger Asian was fine but the older one was rude

4/10 Fair

The room smelt of urine, extra charges that weren't disclosed at time of booking e.g Security deposit for room key, The male toilets had vomit all over 1 cubicle, and staff didn't care about it and spoke English because they had to and spoke in Mandarin between each other in front of guests. Would not recommend at all, and certainly not going back there

If you are after the cheapest room in Melbourne City, then this is the hostel for you. The single room was basic, but fine for the price. Very convenient with a tram outside on Elizabeth St. The kitchen, toilets and bathrooms were filthy, so wear shoes inside these areas.

2/10 Poor

The room was disgusting. Room clearly hasn’t been cleaned including the bedsheets. The staff were miserable. The lock on our room door wasn’t secure (someone had clearly tried to ethier break into the room previously or struggled to get into the room). Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone even though it is cheap
