Everything available for such low price. Breakfast is good and bathrooms are clean. They have a well equipped kitchen and a TV room. There's a bar downstairs. If you want a cheap stay option, then there's nothing better than this.

Very well run Super clean and excellent showers.Very central bank smack in the middle of the C B D.. Clearly the best hostel I have stayed at couldn't fault it in any way...An exceptionally good place to stay maybe a fraction more expensive than some hostels but absolutely worth it..

Great location, great communal areas, two extremely well equipped and clean kitchens. Short walk to the beach, great rooftop terrace and garden. Everything clean. One of the best hostels I've been to in Australia!

Location was good. Close to tram line. Lots of cafes near by. I only had one interaction with staff on check in and she was friendly. There was aircon and a fan in the room which helped with comfort levels on the really hot night I was there. Size of the room was good. Seems like quite a good place for backpackers and people wanting to meet new people as there are ample spaces to interact with others (at the pool table, the lounge area, the tables scattered around the hostel).

Great location . Comfortable double private room. I choose this backpackers for my 18 year old daughter who was travelling alone based on previous reviews that said it was ideal for solo travellers. She was able to meet people easily and said that both the staff and the quests were super friendly and she felt very safe. The party atmosphere helped 😃

Disappointing - What previous guests thought, 337 reviews
I was surprised by how quiet it was (as backpacker hostels when I was visiting America tended to be very noisy). The lockers were a useful safety feature which I hadn't expected - it meant I could leave stuff in my dorm room.
