Honestly, I got exactly what I paid for. It definitely fitted my needs of just needing a bed to crash in for the night and the essentials that comes with it. I would recommend it to people who are just wanting a cheap and easy no-nonsense place to stay.

Quiet modern clean, close to nightlife and trams.

A modern spacious house adapted as a hostel. Very quiet location, yet close to Victoria Street restaurants, bars, aldi etc. Basic, flexible accommodation. Clean room. Excellent kitchen facilities. Had to wait for the bathroom a bit, but no problem. Courteous cooperative service.

It's a homestay in the true sense of the word. The caretaker goes the extra mile and is great IT support. rooms and bathrooms are excellent. The back garden area is lovely to spend time in. Laundry and Kitchen is just like home. If you need something and can't find it, all you have to do is ask.

If you're on a limited budget or everything else is booked out, then so be it. Holes in the walls, dust on all horizontal surfaces and the bed was, well, less said the better. On a positive note, however, the caretaker is a genuinely friendly gentleman who tries hard to make guests feel welcome.
