Hostel has a quaint, rustic charm. I could see they’re taking active steps to address areas that need attention, such as improving ventilation. They have some problems, like lack of bathrooms, but they are offset by the price.

Showers were filthy. (That is the only day during my vacation that I could not shower.) Breakfast area did not even have clean glasses. This place could only be a last resort for the travelers “who cannot find anywhere else”. Not worth US$287 (AU$430) for the New Year’s Eve. (They did not even do the bare minimum.) Location is fine but that’s it. I regret booking this place. Period.

Not the best quality hostel. No towels which they don’t tell you. Online pictures show towels. Dirty. They did let me checkin early after a very long flight which was really nice.

Opção de albergue decente na Allen Street, 8/10. A localização era aceitável, o ambiente era um pouco silencioso. As instalações eram adequadas, nada de extraordinário.

I didnt expect too much from this place. I read reviews, they were different. I chose this place because of price&location. I dint find online check-in with tablet the best option, but can understand it. My room was ok, as it should be in a cheap hostel. Bed linen was clean, but no towel. There was a long queue for the shower, that's not cool. I skipped dinner, but breakfast was fine, as a usual one. Location was really good, near public transport. In general my stay was okay.

Reported the aircon being broken 5 times in the space of 24 hours and all they did was send someone up to the room with the remote switch it on - where it would then error after 30 mins. Fruit flies everywhere, in the rooms, in the luggage storage, in the "common" areas.
