I stayed at this backpackers two years ago - it was much the same though I had rosy spectacles about it. It's such a STUNNING building - all it would take is a little care to make this place something really special. The rooms, and I saw a few of them, were so messy. There were two couches in our room but you wouldn't make use of them they looked so filthy. It is a good place to stay - it's just such a pity that it's not better kept.

Where to start. I read the reviews before I booked. Obv some people are into it. Evidently I'm not one of them. I'm all for rugged traveller experiences but this place....could not get out fast enough. If you smoke .. Go. If you don't smoke..don't. If you're depressed and like to stay in all day watching movies, you'll find it ok...otherwise save yourself the decent hostel price and pay it at a decent hostel. The long termers and staff are lovely, but wow, what a kip.
I assume from your rating that you did not enjoy your 2 night stay with us that you extended for a further 3 days instead of getting out fast. I recall telling you on your arrival that we are a hostel and not a hotel and that you probably wont like your stay. You thought I was joking then, but I was right. During your stay was one of the coldest weekends in Melbourne and everyone were a little depressed and stayed inside in the warm watching movies. I am sorry for that.
