homeless shelter

Do be aware that this accommodation is used for homeless housing and has issues with noise, violence and other social issues.
i went in to collect an acquaintance and didnt feel safe. I quickly suggested they move somewhere more safer and quieter - and they did.

Worst accomodation I’ve ever stayed.

Worst accomodation I’ve ever stayed in. It’s robbery for the price. Shower doesn’t work, room if filthy. Person next door blasting music and the tv all night with the same song on repeat, while smoking weed. The walls are paper thin, so no escaping the noise.

New apartment @ $850 for 5 nughts

Super cheap Bed didn’t even have a mattress protector and just a thin synthetic sheet...entrance to apartment was dodgy (see photos) and was dark. Wifi glitched continuously. Above a nightclub which isn’t mentioned so bloody noisy... and to top it off, you can’t lock the front door. Wtf???stay elsewhere.

DON’T STAY HERE. ABSOLUTE SCAM ARTISTS

Booked 2 rooms for 2 nights on HostelWorld to stay in January for $90 per room per night. When I called up to confirm, the guy told me that what it said on HostelWorld was wrong and I had only booked one room(which is false because I had the confirmation right in front of me) and I would in fact have to pay $250 per room per night or have to find somewhere else to stay. The reviews were so bad the only reason we were staying here in the first place is because there was literally nowhere else that we could find. Luckily we found some alternative accomodation but it’s just by luck that I called up because otherwise we would have gotten there in January and been scammed out of our money or been out on the street without anywhere to stay

Stay away!

My friend and I (21 & 22) stayed here for Baydreams. No parking and hard to find the entrance. The bed was clearly unmade when we got there and there was hair in the sheets. Black and white mould on the walls and carpet. The hot water turns off after about 1 minute. The nightclub underneath is another story. We were warned it was loud but not that loud. The room vibrates until 3am and I woke up to plaster dust all over my clothing. The manager could be heard verbally abusing a young woman in the reception. We were so excited when we read the club was closed Sunday (only warned of noise Friday/Saturday) but alas the music and vibration started at 11pm Sunday night. We got more of a rest at the dang festival.

Very good location
