Op wandelafstand van de meeste bezienswaardigheden. Vriendelijke medewerkers. Goed uitgeruste keuken. Airco/verwarming maakte best veel lawaai, stond erg koud en kon niet uitgezet worden (centrale regeling voor heel het gebouw).
Very courteous staff and willing to answer all sorts of questions. Cleaning staff do a wonderful job, often cleaning up the mess made by the clients!!
Didn't like people smoking on the kitchen deck.
Rather expensive but seems thats the way of the world right now. Great location.
Was curious about the lack of compostable bins.
All in all I felt safe and taken well care of.

Clean room, bathrooms cleaned regularly throughout the day, basic gym but a nice extra for a hostel, rooftop space has a grey view of the city and a good place to relax.
This is not any hostel, I have stayed at some nice places and the room I had would compete with many 5 star hotels. It’s great as a solo traveller. Only thing that would make it better would be if it had a bar
This property is listed as a hotel. It has hotel in the name. I booked a room with a queen bed. I arrive to find out it’s a hostel operating under the guise of being a hotel. Kids under 16 years old running around everywhere, bunk bed shared rooms loud at all hours, but for some reason I had reception come to my room twice for noise complaints because of music playing on my phone? Not sure how you can have a private room but not actually be private at all. This was the worst experience I’ve had at a “hotel” in all my years of travel. If their name was space “hostel” I wouldn’t have stayed here. This feel fraudulent and I was conned into a terrible experience in Melbourne. Please take this property off of Expedia, leave it on Hostelworld
Everything works perfectly as always. Best set up. The silly young groups difficult und messy at times. My Medical Restrictions were completely forgotten this time, which led to unpleasant event. I've Always written them up front in the requests. And I had to tell a "supervisor" who came and stood over my head and started quarreling with guy trying to work, that she could do it outside the room. An experienced Manager has left, and things a little erratic & unprotected since. Unfortunate.
Great overnight stay and free breaky (Sundays) was a bonus. Lovely staff. The heaters are some what noisy but not enough to keep you up at night and they heated the rooms well. Very convenient location
Es un ligar agradable y perfecta vista desde la azotea. Tiene espacios muy bien definidos. El gym, el cine, y la cocina. Aparte los baños son individuales, eso lo hace más cómodo y limpio. ♥️ Estuve en una habitación semiprivada de 4 camas. Fue cómodo y agradable. Lo recomiendo para estar en Melbourne y conocer la city. Muy facil acceso al transporte público y a variedad de restaurantes cercanos
Cool enough place but a single room for that size seriously? With no ensuite. Another $32 per night I get get bling elsewhere. Room 4 times that shoebox, ensuite, fridge, tv that works so nice!!

멜버른이 워낙 비싸니 중심부에 이 가격의 호텔이 없겠지만 여럿이 사용하고 공용 샤워실이라 불편합니다.
