This place is an absolute gem!
Very reasonable prices especially since it was a last minute walk in booking for myself as i was only in Canberrafor the day and just needed to freshen up and get off my feet . Location is walking distance to pretty much everything,restaurants,cafes and shopping. Room was tidy and the gentleman that was at the front desk Sam was even gracious and kind enough to check me in at 10am which was very much appreciated.

The place had just opened when I checked in, so everything was super clean. The room was really spacious and had a great vibe, I felt totally comfortable right away. The staff were super friendly and helpful too. Honestly, this has been the most comfortable hostel I’ve stayed at so far.

Nice location, not too far from the tourist spot. The share room was really clean and big with a disco light in the middle. Sam was really friendly and helpful with the booking guideline although it was already over the check in time. One of the best hostel i have ever stayed

Very impressive accommodation, clean bed linen, comfortable mattress, Hugh tidy kitchen, lots of leisure spaces, peaceful young villagers live in a harmonious community. I used to only live in hotels. Since I last visited Canberra and lived at the Village, my concept of accommodation has completely changed. Sincerely appreciated all of the staff for your wonderful efforts. One additional advice is that earplugs are a vital element in bringing you undisturbed sleep; there were heaps of earplugs in the reception.

This hostel is locaded in the center, so the cafes, bars and shops are walking distence to whatever direction you decide go to. I only stayed one night, but I really enjoyed it. The rooms we nice nad clean. The same goes to showers and toilets. In the evening there was a really humbling game of pool (with beer included). But we had a lot of fun! Overall amazing experience! The thanks goes to the people working in the hostel. They made amazing atmosphere.

I stayed here for 3 days, and the location is fantastic! However, the service felt very impersonal everything is digital, which can be dehumanizing. The staff barely acknowledge you, and you’re left to find all the answers in the app on your own.
Cleanliness was a big issue. The kitchen and bathrooms were seriously unpleasant and need immediate attention. Additionally, the environment could benefit from more events or activities to help guests connect. If you’re looking to make new friends, this might not be the best place. That said, I loved the location and would genuinely recommend this place if the cleanliness and service improve. I’d also consider returning. Thank you!
