Room was ok, Im fine with stripping the beds in hostels, but was surprised to see we even had to take the bin out! Breakfast was ok, as basic as can be. ##### Charlotte ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kenneth, USA Mar 10, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Umm Not what I expected This was an interesting stay. It is in a house in a neighborhood that they have converted into 4 separate private rooms and a central kitchen for share. 1 bathroom and 1 shower also to share. This would be expeccted for a hostel. we had to go through a room that was cluttered with cleaning supplys and equipment to go outside to get to our room or to go to the main part of the house or bathroom. For the price, this place really fell short of our expectations. ##### Kenneth ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 18, 2015 #### Average Room and shared facilities was ok.

Very friendly and welcoming manager. Would definitely go there again if i need stay at Apollo bay ##### Kd ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michelle Oct 6, 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolute Katastrophe Als Teil unseres Great Ocean Road-Trips haben wir (zum Glück nur eine Nacht) in diesem "Hostel" verbracht. Mit über $40 AUD pro Person pro Nacht, war es ein relativ teures Backpacker-Hostel. Leider war es nicht annähernd, was man von einem richtigen Hostel erwartet. Die Zimmer sind scheinbar alle in einzelnen Häusern. Wir waren in einem Haus mit zwei Zimmern, wovon man unser eigenes schonmal nicht abschließen konnte. Das Bad: dreckige Toilette, zugenagelte Badewanne, dreckiges Waschbecken und tropfende Dusche. Küche und Wohnzimmer spärlich und nicht sehr gemütlich eingerichtet. Das "Frühstück inklusive" bestand aus ein paar offenen, fast leeren Marmeladengläsern, angebrochener Milch und Cornflakes-Packung. Die Nacht insgesamt war ziemlich ungemütlich, mit kaputter Heizung haben wir die Nacht durch gefroren und haben uns mit vielen eigenen Decken zugedeckt. Diese Unterkunft kann ich wirklich niemanden empfehlen, viel zu teuer für so ein Hostel, wir haben eine Beschwerde hinterlassen, worauf aber nie eine Reaktion kam- kein Wunder dass man kein persönliches Check Out hatte sondern den Schlüssel bloß im Zimmer liegen lassen sollte. ##### Michelle ### 6/10 Okay #### Tim, Melbourne Sep 14, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Never been to a backpackers before. But it was ok! So i wouldnt take the family... but for a cheap stay over just somewhere to sleep it did the job and more! The bloke who checked my in was friendly and accomodating. He let me check in 3 hours after check in closure. They has tea. Coffee. Breakfast cerial. And a tv to watch the footy. She was rough around the edges but overall for wat i needed and for the $$$ worth it! ##### Tim ### 8/10 Good #### Catherine, Australia - VIC - Ballarat Mar 3, 2015 Facilities: Basic; Value: Bargain; Service: Polite; Cleanliness: Clean; ##### Catherine ### 6/10 Okay #### Elliott, Australia - TAS - Hobart Nov 27, 2014 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities: Old; Value: Low-priced; Service: Below average; Cleanliness: Grubby; ##### Elliott ### 8/10 Good #### nicki, Australia - VIC - Melbourne Oct 20, 2014 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service Facilities: Nice ; Value: Affordable; Service: Below average, Where was the smile?; Cleanliness: Tidy, Clean; Great value all round, especially with brekkie included. ##### nicki ### 8/10 Good #### Richard, Australia - VIC - Melbourne May 21, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Facilities: Tired, Nothing special, Old; Value: Great deal, Bargain, Fantastic; Service: Respectful, Friendly; Cleanliness: Pleasant; ##### Richard ### 6/10 Okay #### Stacey, Canada Apr 28, 2014 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities: Shabby, Run-down; Value: Cheap; Service: Below average, Lacking; Cleanliness: Filthy; ##### Stacey ### 6/10 Okay #### Marcus Apr 15, 2014 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Budget price and you can tell ##### Marcus ### 6/10 Okay #### Scott, Australia - VIC - Melbourne Apr 1, 2014 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities: Tired, average; Value: Uneconomical, not great; Service: ordinary; Cleanliness: Smelly; the double room we had stunk.
