The staff in the hostel is rude, unpolite and extremely arrogant. We had limited access to internet even if the hostel promote a wifi connection. The second day we stayed at the hostel the manager decided to forbid the use of the kitchen taking away all the pots and closing the gas. There are only 6 bathrooms for 3 floors... More

I stayed here for 6 days during the Australian Open in Melbourne. I had a great time and the location is excellent. However, the facilities leave a little to be desired. There are only 2 showers per floor, which means that there is a long wait for one in the morning. Also, if you're a light sleeper, you might be... More

I didn't mind my stay here, but I really copped it from my high maintenance wife to be. The rooms have bunks, not good for couples. The rooms on the street side are noisy due to the tram line going past, this eases at midnight-ish but starts again early in the morning. Breakfast did run out quickly, although they did... More

Its not the best hostel we stayed in which is such a shame as it has alot of potential. It has alot of character, and is a spacious hostel but they do not have enough bathrooms. Never cooked in the kitchen so i cant comment on that, breakfast supplied was pretty standard. Room was good and location was right near... More

I do not often write reviews bur felt compelled to do so in this case. Having travelled previously for three months, I was well aware of different hostels and their various problems - this did not prepare me for my stay at St Arnaud. To start on a positive note - the location is very good and the room sizes... More

Do not stay here. Where shall I start. The room was not vacuumed when we arrived, and even though they said they 'deep clean' their rooms it was, for want of a better word a bit scummy. The bathrooms are shocking, dirty, wet, sodden bathmat, paint falling off the walls, hair everywhere- eugh. Also there are not enough bathrooms for... More

Stayed at St Arnaud for two nights. Culd have stayed longer but found cheaper and better elsewhere. The room was fine, decent size. Very limited internet but ok if you need it for a short time. There was no where to hang the wet towels in the room. We had a double room for around 72 Dollars a night. The... More

Take a pair of flip-flops when you visit St Arnaud's! Good basic facilities, including a clean bar fridge in the room. Clean beds, fresh towel daily.Clean and well equipped shared kitchen.Invisible staff. All good value in this low price range :-) The bathrooms,however, were terrible! Not just mess left behind by other guests but long -term, ingrained, stick-your-feet-to-the-floor kind of... More

Staff were friendly and facilities while basic were fine. It was reasonable value for money. Only thing was that the bed was quite uncomfortable(felt every spring). Another thing that spoilt things a bit was that I checked out at 9:am but had a 1pm Jetbus booked. I returned to the hostel to watch a little bit of TV for an... More
