Space Hotel was overall great! I stayed in a 4 person female bunk room. The beds had curtains all the way around which was great for privacy. The beds each had their own locker, shelf, and light. The bathrooms were good, not dirty but not the cleanest I've ever seen. The kitchen was big and had a nice balcony. The rooftop was great as well with lots of space and a hot tub. My only downfall was the bedrooms got hot and I don't think there was any way to open the window. Location was great!

Hostelworld says

Space Hotel is in central Melbourne, a short walk from Queen Victoria Market and Chinatown. It offers quite a lot of extras to guests, such as a gym, mini-cinema, a hot tub, self-service laundry facilities, a huge kitchen and individual shared bathrooms for extra privacy. Each dorm bed has a light and a shelf and we particularly like that there's power sockets inside the lockers so travellers can charge their electronics safely and easily.
