Dirty, staff unhelpful, and not very social. 100% the worst place I’ve stayed at in Australia

It's an alright hostel. The private rooms are very small, there is nothing in the room besides the bed, so nowhere to put your stuff, everything has to be on the floor. The common bathrooms are alright, but they feel a bit run down and dirty. The kitchen was very dirty when we were there. The staff is very friendly, Callum was super kind and helpful.

Overall a good stay. Premises are clean, people are friendly. The wifi was a little wonky and it can be a little noisy at times, but overall a nice stay for what you’re paying. Just be mindful of the night and day math cause ended up costing me a little more than I had expected. Would recommend 👍🏻
