Shared toilets and showers were always filthy, without graphic detail people don’t clean up after themselves, showers didn’t always flow. Kitchen was cluttered with too many utensils, pots and pans etc...(didn’t really look clean and we definitely decided to eat out then cook in). The furniture was well outdated, poor condition to use, chairs and couches full of dust mites. Sound travels throughout the facility to get a good nights sleep. The place it’s self is about to fall to bits. Price definitely not worth staying. Glad to have left and will never return
It was good for short stay accomadation of a few days. Or 1 night

I found it clean comfy and quiet. For the price exellent value. Beds quite comfortable and pillows great !!!!😊😊😊😃😃I have already recommended it a s night stay over
Absolute nightmare to stay here :( bathroom was smelly especially the mixed showers room. The property is slightly old and run down, the bed we stay at creak everytime we turn in. Its super old and no fresh air can come in :(. Its quite pricey considering all these, we could have stayed in cottage/cabin.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
It was a great location for the UTAS Stadium, just very disappointed with the non-respect from other people staying there.
There is a public area provided for all backpackers. I like that area very much as this is the bonding time with travelers worldwide. I have a good experience and stay in this hostel. I am satisfy with all the services provided. Value for money for such price tag.
Is always a great basic hotel stay, friendly, clean and comfortable, I attended V8supercars as an official and need a bed to put head on for a few hours each nite , this hotel fits the bill as it is in a quiet area and away from bustle
