My biggest mistake was staying here in the first place. Service hours are really short, the staff doesn't care much about you. WiFi password wasnt given upon our arrival, its also difficult to contact via phone call. Better stay away from this. However, the location is great tho.

Great for a budget stay for backpackers who want to live in the CBD especially if you go Tassie just for the Aurora chase.

I check in late and check out early. So i don’t know how service is great. You can check in after 5pm by call. According to the information i’ve seen, if you check in after midnight, you will have to pay an additional fee.

The location is great and the staff were alright. Other than that it wasn't a great hostel. The kitchen and bathrooms were both quite in need of a deeper clean than the bare bones surface clean they mabye were doing. An the rest of the building was taking apart, cracks in the ceiling, stains, tears in the carpet. There were also hardly any dishes to even be used in the kitchen and the one microwave didn't have a turntable in it.

It’s a great place. Perfect central location near the must see spots, the wharf, great eateries, and just ideal for a solo backpacker like me.

I stayed here until I got a house, and it really felt like a backpacker's place. Oh, and it's cold.. I came in the winter and the heating was so bad I thought I was going to die. But - I'm young!!!! It's good. I used it for cheap.

It's located in the heart of the downtown area and is conveniently located near supermarkets and other shops. It seems that many people have lived here for a long time, and there are always the same people in the same positions in the shared spaces, which made it a little awkward for us only staying for a short time. The kitchen was spacious and clean, and there was plenty of space left in the fridge for short-term guests to use. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay, and I'd like to use it again.

Affordable and centrally located, it's conveniently accessible by Skybus and other public transportation. It took less than 20 minutes to walk to the pier market! The room was a bit dated, but the bed was comfortable. 👍 The headboard was a little dirty, though... maybe they need to pay more attention to it during cleaning. Otherwise, it was a really nice room. 👌
