This property was very good budget accommodation and close to many of the strategic attractions of the city, as well as the Abbotsford Convent Arts precinct & Children's Farm by the Yarra.
Close walking distance to the Vietnamese quarter & Restaurants.

Very handy for footy at the MCG, room was comfy and it’s a very quiet location, we felt safe!
Definitely not for Karen’s but not hostel is. The guy running has great morals and stands up for what’s right. Super easy guy too get along with and makes you feel safe and comfortable. We actually ended up extending due too the 24/7 in house security. Top bloke!
Haven't been in pod accommodation before but it seemed to work well. Had a room to myself that was very clean and comfortable, and shared bathroom was close. Kitchen facilities were well looked after. Manager was very considerate.
Liked friendly and welcoming staff, cleanliness, free coffee tea and bread. Comfortable bed and communal areas.
Only think to be improved is that I wasnt in receipt of the code to get in when I arrived. I didnt have a sim card so couldnt phone. I went away and emailed Frank to get it and then went back. Ideally an automatic email and text giving these details, before check out time would have been good.
Overall this is my favourite accommodation place in Melbourne.
Honestly, I got exactly what I paid for. It definitely fitted my needs of just needing a bed to crash in for the night and the essentials that comes with it. I would recommend it to people who are just wanting a cheap and easy no-nonsense place to stay.
Good place to stay and Huw the manager there is pretty nice. He does very good and tasty cooks for me. Good experience to share and will choose too for next time.

Issues with room, check in and a disagreement over not wanting to have a mobile number
A modern spacious house adapted as a hostel. Very quiet location, yet close to Victoria Street restaurants, bars, aldi etc. Basic, flexible accommodation. Clean room. Excellent kitchen facilities. Had to wait for the bathroom a bit, but no problem. Courteous cooperative service.
It's a homestay in the true sense of the word. The caretaker goes the extra mile and is great IT support. rooms and bathrooms are excellent. The back garden area is lovely to spend time in. Laundry and Kitchen is just like home. If you need something and can't find it, all you have to do is ask.
Mould in the shower. Splatters of who-knows-what on the wall by the toilet. No aircon, and smoke from other guests if you open then windows. Sketchy af looking types staying there.
If you're on a limited budget or everything else is booked out, then so be it. Holes in the walls, dust on all horizontal surfaces and the bed was, well, less said the better.
On a positive note, however, the caretaker is a genuinely friendly gentleman who tries hard to make guests feel welcome.
