    Bad, wont stay again.
    Its right next to a dumpster!!!! And in a very noisy area. Facilities were not clean at all. So many people in one single room. I lived in a lot of hostels, but this was probably the worst. They took $20 advance for as a security, which I didnt know before. Also had to take ALL of the bedding down myself. And I paid 100 for one night, which is insane! Go to Capsule Hotel, or YHA instead.

    Hostel for Young and crazy
    The location 10/10
    Is written that check in is until 00hrs. but if you check in after 21hrs you need to call the staff. The problem was I didnt have Aus phone number, and they didnt have any sign of the wifi either (someone else helped me and called for me). During the check in, the check out instructions werent clear.

    Passable
    Enough for short stay
    Location was perfect. It located in a quite street in CBD. Roof top close at 10pm, so you would not be bothered by noise. Kitchen was clean, not very clean but was just ok.
    Bathrooms were not enough for the amount of guests, when busy there are some people waiting aside. I use laundry and they accept card to pay. Something went wrong when I did, and reception didn't deal with it so ended up taking contact to the laundry company by myself.
