My first stop in Australia, and I stayed here for a full week. I didn’t speak much English at the time, so I kept to myself, but the vibe was incredibly welcoming. Most guests seemed to be long-term travelers, which made the atmosphere feel like a home away from home. Just a short walk away, there are plenty of cozy cafes—perfect for rainy days when you don’t feel like going out. Honestly, I loved it. I was a bit nervous at first—there were quite a few European guests, and they all seemed so energetic and outgoing—but every single one was kind and friendly, always smiling and reaching out to chat. It really made me feel included. The location is great, the staff is warm, and the whole experience felt genuine and refreshing. Definitely coming back.

This place was hands down my favorite stay during my trip to Australia. Just a 3-minute walk from Roma Street train station and super close to Queen Street, making transportation and daily errands incredibly convenient. The exterior is beautifully lined with stunning purple flowering trees—perfect for a quick photo op. On the ground floor, there's a cozy bar, while the second floor features a shared lounge and kitchen area where I cooked a few meals myself. The staff at the front desk were warm and helpful, always ready to assist. My room was clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed—comfortable bed, great soundproofing, fridge, TV, and complimentary toiletries. Even better, they allowed me to store my luggage the next day, which made my travel schedule so much easier.
