Budget friendly but tired
The building is very tired and the bed was worn out. The staff however were absolutely wonderful and very friendly. This is a budget hotel and while they are trying hard it could do with a freshen up, I've stayed at better for a similar price.
I stayed in one of the single rooms. It was so beautiful and inviting, even with it being minimalistic. The little speakeasy-esque bar downstairs is really inviting. All of the staff were super friendly. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
Honestly I really enjoyed this hostel although apparently it changed owners between my booking and staying so it was hard to find. Lol. But this is not a typical bounce hostel, it used to be a Selina's so the facilities are a lot better than you would normally get in a Bounce hostel. The beds were really comfortable and they let you use the facilities after check out which is great! It was sociable in a laid back way which was nice. Would love if they had a rooftop space, and the women's bathrooms were out of order for a day of my stay, but overall I totally recommend this place, and would stay here again.
Good hostel, location is perfect for exploring Melbourne, great transport links right outside can’t really ask for a better location I’d say.
Only downside I found was with the little street beside it at night, it can get noisy with trucks driving up and restocking the local restaurants and cafes (which are really good by the way).
The staff are amazing, really helpful and lovely. I’d recommend and travellers to start off with the pay as you feel walking tour, great way to meet people like you and you find out loads about the city.
