The location and facilities of the hostel is good. The reception lady is friendly. We stayed for one night and left in the morning only found a charge on my credit card of 91.53 $ the next day (surely not for the accommodation as it has been fully paid beforehand.) Neither explanation nor notice in advance for this charge and I don’t know what it is about. I called the hostel several times seeking clarification and nobody answered the phone. Guided by the automatic voice of hostel, my text messages to the number with same question went unanswered either. This is confusing and just don’t know what to do next.

Outstanding.
Outstanding. Location is perfect. Super clean; super friendly. Great beers. Pizza was so-so. Go elsewhere for dinner. Loved the lounges and TV rooms and general atmosphere. The common toilets and showers were not a problem at all. Convenient, Very clean and plenty of privacy. Rooms were immaculate. Other than the pizza quality, the only complaint is the limited hours. Likely many hostels, it is inexplicably closed during prime hours.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The people were friendly and it was nice to enjoy a beer and pizza in the shared bar and communal areas. We had a double room and happy with shared toilets and showers. The only problem was the lack of washbasins. The only washbasin was in the shared bathroom at the end of the corridor. There were small handbasins on top of the toilets but unfortunately none of these were working. If the single bathroom with the washbasin was occupied it was impossible to wash hands or teeth!

The room was cozy and very clean. There is a bar downstairs but it closes at a reasonable hour and we never heard anything from the room. Shared bathroom was never a problem. I was initially hesitant about shared bathrooms but, They were very clean and we never had to wait. There were plenty of facilities. The guesthouse had a great atmosphere, is walkable to the rest if the town. Would absolutely stay again!

I most likely didn't read the fine print but this is more like a back-packers than a motel, which I only realised when I got here. Rooms don't have bathrooms. Toilet and showers are communal although there is one actual bathroom with shower, toilet and hand basin. There is also a general wash room with several wash basins. Everything was clean and well presented. there is a large communal recreation/dining area in the pub/pizza bar on the ground floor. Highly recommend if you don't mind this sort of thing.

I didn’t realise what kind of room I was purchasing online. Shared bathrooms and no television in the room. Probably my fault as I was rushing to find a bed for the night. Didn’t stay, ended up going on. I t was disappointing there was no mention of any type of refund offered. If anything I was told I should have booked a motel!

Rooms are spacious, comfortable and super clean. There's a pizza bar on-site so you don't need to look further for your food and drinks. Although bathrooms are shared, they are hyper clean and there's a large number of them, so you never have to wait. The accommodation location is also perfect for those wanting to explore more of the Great Ocean Road.
