    The bed was uncomfortable and the mattress had mold. Hopefully the mattresses will be replaced with new ones. The kitchen is tiny for so many people.

    The location of the hostel is great. Everything is within walking distance. The lounge is very nicely furnished and the view from the balcony is beautiful.

    bathrooms were not particularly clean, the was lots of hair and dirt all over the floors and showers

    Pods were spacious and really comfortable and had good amenities (lights and a fan), and were nice and private as you could pull the curtain all the way down.

    - The other half of the staff weren’t particularly friendly or helpful. - Not enough floor space in rooms - barely wide enough to open a large suitcase! - Lockers are great in principle but aren’t big enough for large cases and codes are easily reset. - Our room had no window or natural light which made it feel a bit like a prison cell. - Nowhere to hang towels or anything else that needs airing out. - Not very social. It seems the pods may attract less social backpackers? I’ve probably stayed in nearly 100 hostels across 6 continents and this is the first time I haven’t had a conversation with a single person in the room.

    - Pods are more private than regular hostel bunk beds and have their own light, fan, sockets, mirror, locker and privacy screen. - Good location - easy walking distance from anything you’ll want to access in town. - Bathroom clean and well ventilated. - Half the staff were friendly and helpful!

    The pods were actually quite sound proof and were really comfortable. Perfect location, on the same block as where you get picked up for alot of activites.

    Nice Pod but the Bathroom and Lounge Time Needed to Be Changed
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Private Single Pod in 8 Share Room

    The bathroom is the least favourite of my stay here. It doesn't have any heater (not water heater) so it's kind of cold when I have to shower early in the morning or at late night. Also, I got the 1st floor, they only have 1 sink in the 1st floor and it annoys me so much especially when I have to brush my teeth or dry my hair and then someone needs to wash their hand from the toilet. Also, I hate it so much that the lounge only open from 6am-10pm. I think the lounge should be open for 24 hour because it makes me really hard when I want to have phone call above 10pm. The lobby has no chair so I'm forced to just standing on the aisle to do phone call at night. And the last is, cleanliness need to be work on. The bed is clean, but I doubt the cleaner actually wipes all the pod area. I found some dirt on it and I ended up wiping it myself.

    First of all, the location is very great! it's really near bus stop and Queenstown Mall, it's very easy to get food or groceries here. I also like the kitchen, laundry, and the lounge. The lounge have really nice ambience and also nice view. I like they having social events but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to experience it. The staff is also very friendly and helpful! The bed is just okay but the pod is bigger than I expected. The locker is also so big it could fit 1 big luggage and a backpack. The room also have warm heater.

    The tv in our room was very discolored it was unwatchable. The walls are paper thin, our neighbors kept us up most nights and unfortunately the loud fan system in the bathroom/vicinity goes 24/7. The staff were very monotone. We had paid for parking through Lylo at an offsite public parking lot, the first staff member we spoke to about the parking didn't know where it was and just told us what it was called and that it was up the road. Then we couldn't get out of the carpark after day one without paying $70. I'm glad I didn't listen to my partner by just paying it. I decided to park back up and walk back to Lylo where they just said oh we haven't updated your details, you should be able to get out now. (no apology) It did end up fine but this stressed me out.

    The location is great. The hangout space is cool too.

    Too many things not quite right. Only 1 sink in the bathroom and 2 toilets so long lines. Pod idea is great - but the night lights mean you cannot turn off the lights - very bright and hard to sleep. If you’re the last one in the room you’ll be climbing down in the dark though as they turn off when you grab your key. The only power points were in the pods, usb points didn’t work and because of location couldn’t fit adapter. Plus you had to be there to charge anything because it needed your room key to charge. Just not practical. There is a platform at the top of the rather vertical ladder you have to step around to get down, which was awkward

    Great location, clean, basic facilities
