My favourite hostel I’ve ever stayed in!! I went on my own and stayed for a few days and ended up extending because didn’t want to leave! Staff were all so welcoming and fun, the location was soooo good, few minute walk to the beach front, 1min walk to shops and restaurants, bus stop and tram stop right outside, there was something on at the hostel every night so it was easy to make mates and didn’t matter if you were on your own. Everywhere was kept proper clean and you need your code to get in and out the

Hostelworld says

Base St Kilda is a spacious and modern backpackers' hostel located just five minutes from Luna Park and the beach. There are also two stops outside with lines going directly to the centre of Melbourne. Hostelworld guests tell us this hostel has a friendly party atmosphere and helpful staff who provide nightly themes, parties and games in the lively onsite bar. We like that all their rooms are ensuite.
