"The place is nice and close to the main city. Metro and buses are nearby. Andrew is lovely and supportive. If you have any questions, he is there to respond and help. I also met some lovely guests there. The kitchen is functional, but they could bring in some new appliances. Most that are available are outdated. I would highly recommend this place to anyone interested. "

"I first saw this advertised for $130, offering a room with private bathroom. When I came back to the ad later in the day the cost was $65, which I presumed was because they hadn't managed to rent the room. When I turned up I was shown a double bed with a bathroom in the passageway next to the room. In discussion with the person who showed me the room I said I'd paid $65, and suddenly I was told that a couple had booked the double bed but I could have a single bunk in the room next door. When...

"It's cheap hostel in We End but you will get what you paid. Just don't expect much of $16 per night. At least you can have a car parking for free if you have one. There are 2 buildings of the hostel, White and Green, it seems the Green one is for the people who live there for ages but the White one is for new guests. But yeah seems most of people who staying in the hostel have been here a ages. *** the booking website said that you've already paid for the first night or what but the true is...

"Overall the stay was good however bathrooms were a little dirty and we requested the king beds to be split but they were not so I had my 16 and 13 year old daughter and son respectively share a bed which thankfully they made work but we're not thrilled with. We also had 6 people staying but only 5 bath towels and no face towels. Minor problems and was fine for a 1 night stay. Pallet cafe downstairs though was unbelievably great "
