Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had pretty spacious rooms with a small but very clean private bathroom, great for crashing down after a day out. However, the noise levels were a bit high, and in terms of value for money, it didn't fully hit the mark.
The hostel is a great spot for backpackers, offering clean and cozy rooms, but could improve individual light sources for the bunks. The service is friendly but lacks daily room cleaning and has mold in the shower. The location is convenient, just a 2-minute walk from the beach and near various shops and restaurants, making it great for those looking to enjoy the party scene in St Kilda. The dining options are subpar with limited breakfast choices, but the communal area with a kitchen adds value. Overall, a decent stay for budget-conscious travelers.
The hotel had low standards considering the price, but it was clean and spacious enough for our group. The service was a mix, with the fridges always full, but not particularly friendly. The location was convenient with nearby cafes and restaurants, although the noise from downstairs was a drawback. The dining experience was helpful, especially for early departures. Facilities were decent.
The hostel is conveniently located in the heart of St Kilda, just a 2-minute walk from the beach, shops, bars, and transport options. The rooms are reasonably clean and quiet, although there may be limited space due to long-term guests. The staff is friendly and appreciable, quick to address any issues, and maintain a clean environment. The dining options cater to travelers with budget constraints but may not be recommended for all guests.
The hostel had moderately clean rooms, albeit a bit small, but they provided the basic necessities of a bed and a bathroom. The atmosphere was lively with fellow guests staying for the same time duration. The service was excellent, with staff going out of their way to address any issues promptly. The location was convenient, being close to the beach, shops, and various attractions in St Kilda. The dining offerings were decent despite a few shortcomings. Overall, it was a mixed experience with some positive and negative aspects to consider.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the noise levels were a bit high, and the pricing seemed a tad steep for what was offered. The service had its ups and downs, with contradictory experiences, including a not so pleasant encounter with a rude night receptionist. The location was central in Saint Kilda, which was convenient, but it felt like the property's main selling point. The dining staff were helpful and friendly, enhancing the experience. Despite some drawbacks, it was a decent stay for the price paid.
