Didnt really have the breakfast but the staff was very friendly. Rooms were clean. Beds were pretty comfy for what you pay for and its just a few minute walk from central station as well which makes it so accessible. Theres a light rail just in front of it and another a few minutes away.

excellent value for accommodation in the CBD. Excellent backpackers type accommodation. I had a double room with shared facilities, and it was great value for that level. Public Transport options literally at the doorstep!
