Liked: The staff was helpful and understanding to let us back to have a shower the evening after we checked out, before our night flight. We even got towels, that was nice of them, cheers :)

Disliked: A bigger social area would have been handy. The 'silence after 10 PM' policy.

Liked: This hostel was really enjoyable; quiet, clean, nice mellow atmosphere...great if you're looking for something close to Mitchell St. but far enough away to just chill out. Chloe was super friendly and went out of her way to help. It's also good value for the money...I would stay again!
