Dirty bathroom and toilet.

small room for 3 people (double bed & single bed), messy toilet (toilet used paper is thrown around the toilet, when rubbish bin is full. So dirty and I don't like it
5.3
It is not comfortable enough as my room smell something, like cigarette smoke. I dont like the toilet because people used toilet paper throw outside rubbish bin, and it is really messy.

Location near to theopera house

The location is near to the Opera house if you catch a free bus # 555, opp to backpackers. The bathroom has to be shared, which is broken, don't know why they don't fix it. Its near to central station, walkable distance, no much eating options other than Domions and near by central stations, thanks, naveen

good price with a strange odor inside the room

price economical, good location and bathroom
6.3
Since it is a backpacker hotel, we should not expect too much. However, when we checked in late inside the room, we were really surprised by the room condition. The mattress and pillows' cottons were loosened so you don't sleep well normally. The most awful thing is that the room is really smelly. We also found the room facing the railway so it would be very noisy till late.

Good En suite bathroom

When we where checking in to Home we where told that our booking was not on the system and they had no rooms the same as what we had booked so we phoned agoda and they arranged to upgrade us to a private room which was great. The double bed was great and having an en suite bathroom was luxury for a backpacker..
Restaurant Tip: Great cheap steaks nearby, Great Southern Hotel.

dirty hostel!

central
3.3
really dirty place, not even cheap but still one of the worst places ive been to. no AC in the hostel, instead they have a fan in every room and every window in the whole building open, still it smells bad in the whole place. the rooms smell, and they never clean it at all. they have the big lockers to out your packback in but theres no door on it so you just leave everything open for everyone. i guess the staff tried to be nice to you but they didnt really have alot of thing to offer you so they just invite you to the big roof where nothing really happens. the kitchen is not anything special, took forever to boil water and make spaghetti. dont really have anything good to say about this place
