Keeping in mind that this is a hostle, the private room I had was small but very clean and comfortable. I didn't see a dorm but the other guests seemed to be having a very good time.

Book now on trip. Com and experience pure relaxation at its best. Treat yourself to a peaceful retreat, with inclusive breakfast and all the amenities you need, if you are a backpacker.

Clean hostel all around. You could see cleaning done everyday. The kitchen was a huge plus for me because it saved me a lot of money on eating out. Three dinners were provided each week promoting social interactions with other guests. If I need a place to stay in the future I will be back

Kami menghabiskan masa tinggal kami di asrama wanita dengan sepuluh orang. Kamar-kamarnya memiliki rak, cermin, lemari es, dan balkon. Ada banyak peralatan yang dapat ditemukan di dapur. Sarapan gratis terdiri dari roti panggang dan sereal. Kami menyukai kenyataan bahwa ada sesuatu yang ditawarkan setiap malam dalam seminggu. Hostel ini tidak jauh dari stasiun kereta, sekitar 2 menit berjalan kaki. Hal ini membuat akses ke pusat kota menjadi cepat dan mudah. Dibutuhkan sekitar 30 menit berjalan kaki selama kami tinggal. Selama kami tinggal, banyak pelancong berbahasa Spanyol di asrama. Jika Anda tinggal di asrama, Anda seharusnya tidak memiliki masalah dengan bau ganja. Kami tidak menyukai kebersihan kamar mandi. Ada kamar mandi single dengan toilet, wastafel, dan shower. Secara keseluruhan, kami memberikan hostel ini bintang empat karena memenuhi janji dan pengalaman menginap kami sangat menyenangkan!

This place is highly recommended if you have just arrived in australia! Excellent location. Our private room was spotless and cozy! Not too loud. There is a free breakfast every day and dinner on some days! Pleasant atmosphere!.

Saya datang ke sana untuk menyimpan barang bawaan saya. Tempat umum kecil. Makan malam disediakan tiga kali seminggu. Dibersihkan dengan baik, tetapi seprai tidak diganti dan terlalu banyak kecoa.
