Dear M, Sorry you had this experience. Ever since February we are under new management and you can see how the overall situation has improved according to ratings and guests satisfaction. We hope to see you some other time around to check the hostel and enjoy some time with us.
Cheers and safe travels.

Liked: Good location and easy access to public transport. Free pancakes were good and bathrooms were always kept clean.
Disliked: The music coming from the downstairs pub was so loud at some times that the windows would rattle. Staff seemed to talk only amongst themselves and rarely spoke to guests.

Liked: The room was fine and showers relatively clean.
Disliked: The lack of warning that the music form the pub downstairs reverberates up to your room on the second floor and you won't get to sleep until at least 2AM.

Liked: Good location in St kilda, good bar downstairs.
Disliked: Cleanliness of room was awful, behind the beds and fridge was large clumps of dirt, dust and bottle tops etc, said it had air-con but was just a fan that was available, blinds did not completely close and people from smoking terrace could see in to our room, no lift available so had to carry large suicase up and down may stairs.
