Close to Roma St Station
Short walk to city centre
The double bed was actually two singles pushed together which made it a bit uncumfy
Room was clean and neat
Though it was overpriced for a backpackers though
The bar/restaurant downstairs is a nice perk. Good food. Fun staff. Clean room with very little noise. The black out screen on the window made it very easy to sleep. WiFi is a little skippy though.

Clean and nice. Kitchen was big and clean as well, a bit hot though. Not enough wall inputs in the dorm, 10 person dorm with only 2 inputs, was a bit difficult. Nice and quiet. Wifi not included which is a minus.

Okay
The hostel was I deal for me to get to & from the Roma Street station for the airport. The front desk at check in was super kind & helpful.
Unfortunately the 4 bed female dorm with an en suite bathroom I was in didn’t have a hot water tap that seemed to work & the cleanliness of the bathroom in general I found below par compared to other hostels I’ve previously stay at.
It was do able for one night but the bathroom let it down unfortunately
The kitchen was the worst what I have ever seen or smelled. There were old food everywhere and all the equipment were very nasty and dirty. It was definetly a place where I wouldn't have wanted to cook or eat my food....and what I did. Our room was big but the shower had only cold water and the bathroom door was loud, I mean very loud (no going in to the bathroom in the middle of the night). And in the morning we noticed that there were bugs (cockroachs) all over the place! And top of all that our keys stop working in the evening.
Noisy pub on ground floor but windows were double glazed so not an issue. Close to the station- 2 minute walk. One other good point was that reception was open 6am to 12 midnight. Coffee and tea facilities were available in the room.
I had a double room, (2 single beds) with its own bathroom but the following points were disappointing:
Room didn't look as good as the picture in the ad!
Blind was broken; bedside light didn't work; Bathroom smelled like there was a broken sewer pipe; bathroom door could only be closed from the inside so I couldn't close the door to stop the smell seeping into the bedroom.
I asked if there was an alternative room but everything was booked.
Staff apologised and said they would get their manager to look at fixing the issues.
I wouldn't stay again.
Le personnel est très aimable. Pour le rapport qualité/prix, cet hostel valait le coût.
Le point positif aussi, il était proche de Roma Street Station.

Service lessons?
It's an okay hostel for the money.
But NO SAFETY BOXES! Day staff, the girl was polite and helpfull. Evening staff and nightstaff was rude and not helpfull at all. Staff yelled at workers and other staff infront of guests. Bed was comfortable and room okay, but nothing special.
