It's not bad. It's my first time staying in a youth hostel. The girls I live with are all good people and the hotel is in a good location.

This is the only youth hostel in Canberra, the capital, and it is also the cheapest. There are quite a few Chinese guests here, so it is very suitable for Chinese people who don't speak English to stay here. In addition, the room rates are very expensive on holidays, so it is recommended to avoid staying here on Saturdays and Sundays.

The price is really cheap, but there is no good service. The door is too loud, so I can't sleep all night. The bed has a peculiar smell and is bitten by bed fleas. The shower faucet cannot be hung high, which is inconvenient when taking a shower. The good thing is that it is close to the shopping mall.

The location is great, just a 10-minute walk from the bus hub, and everything is very clean. This is the first hostel I’ve stayed at where the cleaner works at night to tidy up the common room. The room had plenty of space for everyone. I stayed here for 2 nights and booked an 8-bed female dorm. When I checked in at 1 pm, I was assigned to a 4-bed dorm on the 2nd floor. At first, I was the only one there, but a man arrived at 10 pm. I checked with reception, and they apologized for the mistake and moved me to a 4-bed female dorm on the 1st floor. I felt uncomfortable because I was getting ready to sleep and didn’t expect to share a room with a man, as I had booked a female dorm. Moving all my belongings after unpacking was also inconvenient. My second room was still a 4-bed female dorm, even though I had booked an 8-bed dorm. I’m not sure why this happened, but I wanted to share my experience to help the hostel avoid similar issues in the future.
