I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. the value for money was exceptional - the prices were affordable and I received great value for what I paid. Secondly, the attention to detail was impressive. The hotel had a convenient location right by the main shopping area, making it easy to explore the city centre. Additionally, the basic amenities provided were excellent. The rooms were equipped with fridges, sofas, and a TV, making it a comfortable space to relax. The blankets provided were cozy, and I particularly enjoyed lounging in the room with the massive TV. Lastly, having breakfast included was a definite bonus, starting the day off on the right foot.
Everything was satisfactory during my stay.

I recently stayed at Down Under Hostels for my first solo trip, and it was fantastic. The location was perfect, being close to the beach and various shops and restaurants. The hostel had a great homely vibe, with a comfortable living room where people could watch movies together. The breakfast options were better than most hostels, and our room was spacious with big windows. The staff were friendly and gave excellent advice about tours and nearby cities.
I highly recommend this hotel.

The attention to detail is evident in the comfortable beds, some even being doubles, which ensure a good night's sleep. The inclusion of a hot breakfast and free laundry facilities is a nice touch. Additionally, the good WiFi throughout the hostel and the allowance to consume your own alcohol are bonus features that add to the overall positive experience.
Room for improvement: More tables for meals would be beneficial.

The hostel offers clean and modern facilities with a welcoming ambiance that makes you feel at home. The location is great, close to key attractions, and the people living there are amazing. The hostel also offers a good breakfast selection to start your day.
The mattresses were thin and uncomfortable, and noise isolation was an issue with thin walls and couch sleepers. The cleanliness was also lacking in some areas, especially the kitchen where there were a lot of flies and unpleasant smells.

Breakfast was delicious! Loved the fresh pastries and coffee every morning. the location was perfect, right in the heart of the city with quick access to restaurants and attractions. Also appreciated the free tours offered by the hostel, great way to explore the city without breaking the bank.
The noise level was quite high at night, with loud music and chatter from the common area keeping me up until late. the lack of storage options in the room was also a bit inconvenient.

The location is convenient, with plenty of nearby restaurants and being not far from the bus station. the common area is open and lively, making it perfect if you're looking to party until the early hours of the morning. the rooms are clean and comfortable for what you pay, with enough space to unpack your things.
The front desk staff can be unhelpful and abrupt, which detracts from an otherwise pleasant stay.

Great location, close to main attractions and public transportation. . Good common areas and facilities, including a kitchen and free laundry services. Friendly staff who provided good prices for local clubs and attractions.
Rooms were disgustingly messy and crowded, with double beds on bunk beds and belongings everywhere. . Long, term guests dominated the hostel and made short, term guests feel unwelcome.

We loved the hotel facilities, including the big and clean kitchen with all the necessary equipment and plenty of space. The common area was amazing, with iMacs and a TV. The game room was our favorite, with a PS4 and pool table. the staff was very helpful and friendly, and the location was perfect, just a short walk from the main street and the beach.
Nothing to complain about at all.
