great location and atmosphere, nothing to complain about... also has a guest house with private rooms in the adjacent property that look good.

We really enjoyed both sides of the Nunnery as we stayed in the guest house too.

The Nunnery is cosy and has a great vibe about it - staff are friendly and helpful and the free popcorn, ice cream and bbq is a bonus! Location also good, just a quick tram ride into city and located near loads of funky shops and restaurants. The only down side is that bedrooms could be cleaner - bathroom's especially were quite dirty - and it is a bit pricey at $30. I would stay there again though.

Overall a good backpackers, great location and fantastic building. would recommend not getting a room 2 or 3 near the entrance if your looking for a quite night as people talk outside the door until 2am some nights. Also the kitchen closing and opening throughout the day is a bit of a pain! I had a good stay.

This is actually the best hostel i've stayed in in australia, more like a guest house than a hostel, more live in tennant than backpackers so mabye not recommended for immature goon hounds !! This place is oozing with character and style and is located close the city center and v near the trendy/hippy cafe/bars aread of fitzroy

A lovely hostel! I turned up the night before halloween so was a little surprised to see a party in fulll swing, but it soon quietened down. The rooms were clean, the staff were friendly and there was a nice breakfast :) I'd stay here again, very nice atmosphere!

Expensive for the guesthouse, considering breakfast is DIY and you wash your own dishes. Lovely building though, and convenient for Brunswick Street.

Don't get a room near the street - it's pretty loud.
