    Decent bed and fridge in individual room!

    • Stayed 3 nights

    The sofa at the living room is kinda dirty and so torn, it should be replaced ASAP. There are unknown food that seems to have gone bad in the fridge of our room but nobody claims it's theirs, and the whole fridge just stink because of that.

    Overall fair experience because everything is clean. Only IF the guest who stays obey the rules and keep the house tidy. Kitchen, bed and shower are okay. There's fridge in every room which is perfect to keep our food.

    The reception does not exist, there is no one of the staff at the hostel. The location is OK, beds with a basic sponge mattress. You have transferring a deposit of 51 dollars which I found it a bit discreteered by the price. The indications of how to enter you send them by booking, you do not think of appearing without reservation because you are going to waste your time. The majority that stays is permanent

    The location is fine ,not too far of CBD .The indications of how to enter you send them by booking,Try to have data in the case that you want to communicate with the manager because it is entered with key

    It’s okay if you need a cheap place for a couple of nights. Nothing flash or fancy. It’s a sharehouse. It was a bit loud after 10pm (even if the rules say that after 10pm everyone should be quiet). It was okay for the price that we paid. Beds are okay but not super comfy. There’s a lot of ‘longtermers’ so it doesn’t have that happy vibe hostel.

    was loud until about 1am people watching tv right outside the room, everything was very messy and no aircon just a fan was horrendous, you’d expect abit more for what you pay, although it inexpensive it’s not really the bare minimum

    Honestly in the 2 years I’m travelling this is by far the worst place I have been to, its dirty, smelly and loud. The beds where dirty and i dont thinke the rooms are ever cleaned, there was no a/c which made the place an absolute sauna.The lady who runs it (roxanne)is not even there and is very unfriendly to deal with(via facebook). Its clear she just wants to make quick money and doesn’t care at all about her place and how its run. There is no lock or anything and who ever wants to can just enter as they pleas, which gives you a very unsafe feeling. So please anyone who is consider going here, DON’T !!!!

    I would say the price but to be fair I wouldn’t even stay here if it was for free !!!!

    The private room (number 12) seemed horrible to us. The furniture was old and everything was dirty. There was a very high ceiling fan but I was hoping to find an air conditioner. The only thing they do when a guest checks out is change the sheets, then they don't wipe the furniture or vacuum the floor. There is a refrigerator in the room and it was full of hair and food remains. The screen window was broken, taped together and obviously falling down. The only decent and more or less modern thing is the bathroom. We didn't use the kitchen because it seemed dirty to us, it made us sick to even boil water. We saw cockroaches. The room is very expensive (100 per night) for the shameful service they offer, they didn't even give us towels. I attach photos of the room since they do not appear in booking. Avoid this place at all costs.

    The staff. It is an unmanned building but even through messages they did not reply or listen to concerns. The room was so messy and dirty when I walked in that I didn't want to spend any time there. The common room was dirty and again there was stuff everywhere. The ladder to the bed wasn't fully attached. People kept propping the doors open so anyone could come in. Would only recommend if you are desperate

    Good location as it is walking distance to the center
