14 November 2009	Tina Liu great vibe and common area. convenient to trams into the city, but still a ways away from the CBD and from St Kilda beach. overall, quite clean and fun- stayed there a week. definitely appreciated the free pickup from the airport.	75%

20 September 2009	Customer review Friendly staff, good sized kitchen and very clean! The dorm beds were very squeaky though which was a bit annoying!	80%

19 September 2009	Stephan Poser stayed there in may '09 when it was still called cooees, no idea if more than the name changed ;) Nice place, quite large but everything is clean, well maintained and the staff is nice. There is a really large lounge+tv area and a great kitchen. They're doing loads of activities every two days or so, so it's not to hard to meet new people. Location is good, st kilda is a nice place to go out, there is an Aldi nearby (best place to buy booze in oz), it takes a while to go to downtown Melbourne but at least the tram line is right in front of the hostel.	85%

14 September 2009	Jarrin Harris every thing... had a great time down there would go back in a heart beat... if only had the money....	100%

27 August 2009	Customer review I was only really there to sleep but the rooms and bathrooms were clean and very comfortable. The free onsite parking is fantastic, especially as parking around the St Kilda area is notoriously scarce - although they could paint some lines so people don't just park where-ever!	97%

26 August 2009	Niina Kovalainen such a fun place. a wee bit pricey but so worth it when you see the facilties and the clean rooms and CCTV in the kitchen!	95%

25 August 2009	Customer review When I first checked in, the staff wasn't helpful, didn't really explain anything to me and seemed annoyed when I asked questions. The location is okay, but not great, they say its a 10 minute walk to St. Kilda beach, but its really about 20. It's extremely clean, but they have too many rules, for instance you have to put down a $10 deposit for cutlery and another $10 for a room key, if I had the chance to go back, I would probably stay somewhere else...it is a good place to meet people though and extremely tidy	70%

25 August 2009	Customer review spacious, plenty of bathrooms, close to transport to the city	55%

23 August 2009	Customer review The extra amenities were really nice.	87%

09 August 2009	Matthew James Fantastic place, more like a hotel than a hostel. Clean, modern and great location on within walking distance of St Kilda and Chapel St and easy access to the city on 2 tram routes. Great value	100%

06 August 2009	Andrew Parker Cooee is a lovely hostel, nice friendly staff, rooms are clean, shower facilities are good too 5 to 10 min walk from St Kilda centre, and the tram stop is just across the road from the hostel, takes 20 mins into central Melbourne I definatly recommend staying here	100%

03 August 2009	Martin Krasa very very nice hostel	85%

28 July 2009	Customer review We stayed at a 4 beds room, the room is too small, anyway, the toilet and bathroom is super clean and nice!! Location: its a lil bit far fm beach :( valuable for wht u paid!	80%

26 July 2009	Rosalind Robins Very modern and clean and good facilities...	67%

24 July 2009	Customer review boring - noone is talking to anyone else here	60%

20 July 2009	Paul Collison I've stayed at a lot of hostels and this is easily the best. Facilities are top notch, staff are great, the whole place is immaculate and I shared with some great people. I'm trying to think of something critical but really I can't. If you want to be in the St Kilda district near the beach but also a short tram ride from town then this is the place for you.	100%
