Traveller reviews

“Perfect location for CBD activities”
20 Jul 2025
The location is second to none, right next to Courtney place with cafes, bars and entertainment on the doorstep, but manages to be well insulated from any noise outdoors or from within the pub within the building. The dorm room wouldn't have been easy to heat up with the heaters provided (high ceilings) , but we prefer to sleep in a cool room, so it suited us perfectly. The toilets/showers were immaculate and the water was got and powerful. The bar/pub was well stocked, had good deals and sport on the screens and friendly staff.

“Very good”

“Basic but functional.”
23 Jun 2025
It was convenient for what I needed and decent value. The pub downstairs was reasonably priced and the Sunday roast was good.
