Friendly staff, close for tram travel to location Access to excellent kitchen facilities Bar onsite Travel help desk Very secure using an app or codes Staff willing to help and communicate easily

My room was on the road front So had noise with window open for ventilation but there was a wall split system AC if you wished to use it Did not see a hairdryer in the room Otherwise facilities were excellent Would use again I had a private room with my own bathroom

Location was great

As an older guest I should have made it clear at the outset. Possibly there may have been a quieter room?

Close to the Palais. Very welcoming staff.

Pros: 1. Screens to watch World Cup games. 2. Close to grocery stores and dining restaurants. 3. St.Kilda beach is just minutes away. 4. Public transportation is close by. 5. Ensuite bathroom for private room. 6. Nice cleaner - Did response well to room cleaning. 7. Some staff are real friendly and helpful - shout-out to Isaac for setting up the room and screen for the world cup.

Cons: 1. Spotty WIFI connection. 2. Smoking area in the hostel - Absolute dealbreaker. 3. Request not met - Asked for quiet area days ago with rooms available but was given right next to the elevator where slamming door and smoking area next to it. 4. Disappointing bar activities - was looking forward to Wake Up style DJ dance and some free drinks - was greeted by Bingo and pool. 5. Opening Hour - Laundry room closed at 11pm which is crazy. 6. Some staff unpleasant - One cleaner guy was rude and angry - rush to clean the kitchen at 10pm and stopping me and my mom from using - crazy staff 7. Numerous Access Checkpoint - At least 3 access checkpoints to room.
