"Nestled in a forgotten strip of inner-city houses edging a steep park near the university, this homely hostel has only seven rooms and a great backyard."
"slightly cramped accommodation, an easy walk from both the CBD and Parnell. Relaxed atmosphere, small garden and limited parking. Dorms $24, shares $26, rooms & en suites 2."

"Prices are cheaper for windowless rooms, but if you’re planning to be partying in the neighbourhood’s all-night clubs, that might be an advantage."
"Well-kept, pastel-painted hostel in the heart of the lively K’ Rd district, so outside rooms can be noisy."
