BUG Review
This is a basic hostel that's a little run down but otherwise it's a good value bed for the night. It is a popular hostel with Japanese travellers and amenities include a small kitchen, TV lounge, Internet access and a backyard barbecue area.
Price Dorm bed $25 ($23 VIP) Double room $65-75 Prices are in Australian dollars and are inclusive of all taxes.
Pros:
Location is only OK thing about the hostel.
Cons:
Dirty beds and old bedding, horrid toilets and bad service.

We stayed in this hostel for one night and will never go back. We booked one room for us, which was supposed to have a toilet too. There was someone else in the room, and no toilet, but hole in a wall where the toilet used to be. The place lookked nothing like in the photos, staff was very rude and the beds and rooms so dirty that it was horrid. I have been to better hostels in India and elswhere. The location was ok, with some nice cafes around but everything else just way below the average. We were not even told about the apparent free breakfast or anything else around the hostel.
The whole place had horrid feeling, long dirty corridors with carpets over 100 years old, and ripped sofas.
Really save your self and don't bother.
