Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Wouldn’t really recommend staying here. The noise from the partying on the street outside makes it really hard to sleep and the room itself was not very clean.

Run down and dirty
Run down and dirty. Old beds, well used pillows and mattress. Very noisy rooms if you are above the road, with continual noise all night long, we stayed two nights and wouldn't return to this hostel.

Liked: Staff & service
Friendly service. Free breakfast in the morning. Expect to wait in line though around 2pm check in (plenty of seating to plonk down whilst wait). Very convenient stop over backpackers in the hub of the cbd. If wanting to stay for a couple of nights, it may be worth searching other hostels with sound proofing (if you want a decent sleep).
