Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
Great place, clean, modern -- central to all entertainment and shops We stayed here for about three months and I can't recommend highly enough -- even though for the first two weeks there didn't seem to be a lot of work available, when the rain stopped we got loads of work through the hostel and good pay. The pub below has really good food at great prices -- for au$6 you can get things like a good sized bowl of spaghetti bolognaise or some nights was satay chicken or whatever -- Really GOOD Food! Hope to come back sometime next year. Thanks Tony and Steve for making us feel so Welcome! — Peter Holcombe , UK (2011-04-07) Sh*t hole My boyfriend and I stayed here for just over a week because we were promised they could find us work. We made a booking 3 months prior to our arrival to secure a double bedroom. We arrived only to discover we had a bunk bed! They didn't look like much hope of getting a double bed any time during our stay because the manager gave it to someone else, claiming we had turned up too late. As regards work, we stayed for 8 nights and only got 2 days worth of work, we earned $2.60 per bucket that we filled with fruit even though Australian law says we needed to be paid minimum wage. We also have yet to see our hard earned money or our key deposit ($50 each which they DON'T state on the website). The new manager was rude, unhelpful, and unorganised. He had no idea what was going on and it was clear he was struggling to run the place. This is a no drinking hostel which forces you to go down to the "hostel bar" to pay extortionate amounts of money for a beer, another way we were ripped off. Not a single person staying there wanted to be there and they made it clear. They were telling us to move on because we would not get work, which turned out to be true. Also the people who have been staying there for a few months make it clear to you that you are not welcome there, some won't even talk to you and we ended up feeling too uncomfortable to even cook in the kitchen. We have read that the place was recently renovated, but I am a little unsure which part was renovated. Paint was pealing off the walls, the rooms were deathly bare and the place was constantly a mess! The only thing noticeably redone was the bathrooms which were -- at most -- ok. DON'T stay here. It's a waste of time and money, this hostel makes you so bored you end up spending money elsewhere just for entertainment. Huge waste of time and ended up putting a dent in our traveling funds for nothing. Can't say enough bad things about this place. STAY AWAY! — Anonymous , United Kingdom (2010-11-13) Best Place To Stay The people and management are great and they really care about finding you work. — Philip Smith , UK (2010-11-11)
