It was a very clean space which is great, however that’s not what we expected as we prefer the bathroom in our room a Tv kettle fridge etc. The host was very helpful and pleasant. It’s a great space fir young people travelling 😊

The facilities are modest but they are clean and they are very conveniently located opposite West Richmond station.
The staff are proactive, friendly and professional. Definitely a big plus.
If you need a bed to rest in and you don't require fancy hotel style facilities, you'll be satisfied with your stay here.

Cheap and cheerful, clean enough. Friendly. Comfy bed.
It's not fancy but I didn't expect it to be - a private room for not much more than a bunk at a Backpackers, and cleaner.
Cool old building too.

The owner, Ray, is very friendly and lovely to chat with. Staff were lovely. Stayed overnight due to having a concert at Rod Laver Arena and was convenient for what I needed. The traffic/trains can be a bit loud but it didn’t effect me as I wasn’t there for overly long. Overall, great place for the price!

You get what it says on the tin - basic, straightforward, close to city / transport. Premises cleaner than I was expecting. I needed a place to stay after a concert and had work the next day, so this was an easier option than going home and returning to city. Hoddle St noise starts up, but no surprises. I'm satisfied. (Perhaps next time I'll take up the opportunity of the meals available on site.) Thanks Fran,k-the-manager, for your hospitality
