BUG review
This old motel near K Mart has been converted into a hostel with self-contained units, each with a TV, fridge and en suite bathroom. The self-contained nature of the motel-style rooms can keep travellers in their rooms and away from the common areas like the fully-equipped kitchen, the covered outdoor area and the upstairs TV lounge and internet room.

We show up unannounced at hostels to write honest and unbiased hostel reviews. Many of BUG's reviews now feature videos and photo slideshows. BUG never receives payment for listing any establishment and BUG's researchers never accept free accommodation in exchange for favourable reviews.

staying at this hostel was one of the best times i had, the work that was provided was hard but rewarding and having an onsuite (spelling?) in the room was a luxury, and after the week was through we had friday night pizzas and barbeque along with booze, its an awsome place i made lots of friends and hope to go back there one day..
i reccomend it if your heading to Mildura!

I have travelled at length and have to say that this place is almost down there with third world. Give it a miss. We tried the Juicy Grape after one night at the Riviera.
