The Village North Melbourne

LikedConvenient location, can walk to the city, or you can also walk to the nearby tram station. Dorms were neat, and other guests were respectful of the space, comfortable and quiet place to have a nice rest.

DislikedKitchen is a bit dirty.

LikedIt’s fully renovated, good location

DislikedThe facilities were really dirty, I’ve been there many times but the last one I found it dirtiest, the bathrooms, kitchen, common areas. The staff is really nice but I think the management should give the housekeeping staff more hours 😅

LikedNice staff modern facilities

DislikedUnfortunately the toilet/showers are very dirty

LikedAlmost everything is brand new, beds have privacy curtains, wifi is reliable is fast, well equipped kitchen with lots of fridge space.

DislikedNone, all good

LikedLocation was nice. Downstairs common room also was. That’s it.

DislikedKitchen was always pretty filthy with lots of flies flying around whenever you moved anything. Showers were also pretty grim and desperately in need of cleaning regularly (there was literally an empty bottle of wine in one for a week showing no one was cleaning). Staff were non responsive on the app had to talk to them through, ignored me when asking them to speak to the drunk hostel stayers out front of the property who were shouting from 11pm until 3am on a weekday. My bed and one other did not have curtains even though curtains are in all the pictures. Lift is also out of order so you have to take the stairs every day.
