Not good, but I don’t know if there are many budget options to choose from in Darwin
The pool has tissues and stuff floating in it. My room had dark dirty stains on the floor and I don’t think it had been cleaned for a long time.
When I arrived there was no one on reception although they advertise that they have a 24/7 manned reception. I kept calling the number listed and no one picked up. Waited a good 10 mins for someone to show up. When the guy showed up with a vape in his hand he said “yeah I saw the calls”. So he admitted to ignoring them.
They had a QR code that didn’t work to show me the house rules. I told them some kind of free trial had expired. They just shrugged.
Only the bottom bunks have any privacy curtain and one side is exposed.
There’s a fire alarm that keeps going off all night from people vaping. So I didn’t sleep well.
For $55 per night I expected more.
The girls at the coffee shop attached to the hostel were quite rude to me. When I bought a coffee I clearly said that I wanted almond milk. When my order was incorrect the Irish girl who served me said “you DID NOT say almond”. I told her that I did and she buckled down implying I was lying. Then she told me that I HAD to pay extra. I said that was fine but she was implying I was going to run away without paying. The team overall were unfriendly. It was just the confrontational style.
I don’t expect much from hostel staff, but no one I spoke to was helpful or even professional.
I also had a girl bring back her lesbian girlfriend into the room who was not booked in my room for some action at night. When I told reception the girl didn’t really care much. She was just like “oh well”.
I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels but this one was particularly bad.

Thank you for your feedback.
Unfortunately, we are unable to identify your booking from your review, so we would appreciate it if you could contact us directly via email with your name and booking details so we can investigate your concerns further.
Regarding the additional charge, it may be the 1.75% card payment surcharge, which is applied to all card transactions. If this is not the charge you are referring to, please let us know so we can review it.
Our shared kitchen is professionally cleaned twice daily between 2:00–4:00 pm and 10:00 am–12:00 pm. These times are scheduled to avoid the busiest periods when most guests are preparing for work or returning in the evening.
Our air conditioning is set to a temperature suitable for Darwin's tropical climate and humidity. We understand that comfort preferences vary, and complimentary blankets are always available from reception for guests who find the rooms too cool.
We take all guest feedback seriously and would welcome the opportunity to investigate your concerns and resolve any genuine issues. Please reach out to us via email, and we'll be happy to assist.
