- Avg. price/night: US$101.41Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.3Good - What previous guests thought, 1,318 reviewsThe staff is very friendly and they organise games and bbqs then is very easy to meet new people. Rooms have private bathroom and a/c. They have free basic breakfast and cheap bar in the evenings. They also have apartments if you need more privacy. The hostel is next to the tram station, in front of a coles express 24/7 and very close to domino pizza. There is free parking onsite and also you can park in the streets around.Guest review byDanielSolo traveller
- Avg. price/night: US$84.40Scored out of 10, guest rating 6.9Pleasant - What previous guests thought, 2,161 reviewsThe reality is that this hostel provides the cheapest possible stay in the best possible location. The 14-bed dorms are grim, but considering that most travellers only use beds to sleep it is passable. I would only recommend if you're on a serious budget and are willing to experience a bit of discomfort.Guest review byArhamSolo traveller
