Plussat: Quiet, clean & friendly helpful staff in safe environment

Miinukset: Not enough parking & having to check in at other property where the staff weren’t as helpful as Crest on Park

Plussat: well first of all there was no were to park and check in had to park around corner and pay to park for 15minties then we had to drive up the road to a parking station then when I get back to reception they hit us with a $150.00 bond we told them that we was not told that when I booked we were down in Melbourne for our 20th wedding anniversary we asked the desk were the Palais theatre was and he didn't have a clue no lift it was to late to find some were else to go as we had just travelled 4.00km to get there as my wife has had surgery on here knee and when he took the bond he said I would get it back when I leave so after all that we went up to the room by stairs and there was some kind of stain on the bed head and the wife had to put towels down in the shower because the floor was slippery than and a notice on the front said that if you wanted any one after 9.00pm it would cost you $55.00 for some one to come and help you then when we checked the next morning I was told that the bond for the room would be refunded to my account when the room has been checked and cleaned I said how long and I was told in a few days I had to waite till 30/9/19 we stayed there on the 21/19 I rang them up and they said they would look into it and that was it I even rang my bank and they told me that they released it yet .

Miinukset: to much say

Plussat: Bed - Was comfy Breakfast - Was Great

Miinukset: View - was horrible - of a parking garage at 15 ft distance Staff - was incompetent at best Parking - was horrible (on 5th level of a parking structure) Price - not worth the money.

Plussat: Old but quirky.

Miinukset: Some things didn’t work like hairdryer

Plussat: Clean, great location, very comfortable

Miinukset: Bit of a maze to find my room for the very first time. Maybe better signs.

Plussat: I arrived at the hotel with bags and left for the day out ,when I got back there was no power in the room and no staff to assist so I could not charge my phone or computer for the next day and no way to make a coffee. The next day when I went to reception I was told to use the staff room to heat my son some breakfast and handed a box of chocolates and an appolage for inconvenience. No discount or money back and to add insult to injury they charged me twice .

Miinukset: My stay

Plussat: Excellent location, comfortable bed, appreciated the opening windows for fresh air, and it was very quiet and very clean. The staff member on the desk was very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: For the amount of money I paid, I was a little disappointed by the finish of surfaces - I felt the room could do with a little TLC around the edges... Other than that, it was fine.

Plussat: Fantastic artwork, great rooms, comfy beds, good heating and the staff are so friendly. I will definitely be back.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location is great, IGA and liquor store nearby, Albert Park lake is a 5 minute walk if you like exercising, Topolinos is just over the road and there is a bar and restaurant downstairs in the hotel. The 11am check out time is also very handy and unusual! What more could you ask for? The staff are friendly and professional, and give old fashioned service with a smile, which is very rare these days. They go above and beyond the call of duty. The Hotel is quirky and eccentric, and whilst not everything in the rooms is perfect and new. the ambiance and artworks certainly make up for it. I will definitely recommend. Thank you Tolarno's, for making my stay in St Kilda awesome.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike about this amazing place.

Miinukset: Ilmapiiri ei ollut erityinen. Hostellissa vierailijat olivat tavallista enemmän vain omissa oloissaan ja kaveriporukoissaan. Hostellissa oli hiiriä.

Plussat: Great social atmospheres in the kitchen, bar, TV room and rooftop smoking hang haha, also a scene outside the front door at times where people were smoking. Friendly and helpful staff. Friendly guests from all over the world. Lots of nearby eating, drinking and entertainment choices and also close to transport to the city. Beautiful treesy old houses in the back streets.

Miinukset: Shared toilets and showers could've been in better order but a shower I asked about was fixed later that day

Plussat: The curtains and the power plug in each bed are a real bonus. Wifi is free. The showers and toilets were clean even tho it was really old.

Miinukset: The room I was in was really really smelly. I entered the room it was a terrible mess, dirty clothes and stuff all over the floor, I was in a mixed dormitory but I was actually the only girl in a room full of boys. Would have prefer to have at least another girl in the room to feel a bit more comfortable during my stay. Also the girl at the front desk for my check-in was not very smiling nor talkative.

Plussat: Good breakfast

Miinukset: Lots of theft, not really the hostel’s fault, just the type of people that stay there

Miinukset: The staff (reception) was very bad, they don’t know how to do their jobs.

Plussat: The place and beds looked good and under bed storage was good

Miinukset: Was incorrectly booked in so lost my bed and had to transfer to a different hostel

Plussat: The breakfast is amazing! Beds are comfortable as well. USB chargers and flashlights in the bed is a great idea

Miinukset: Staff were absent when I came to check-in and I had to wait more than 30 min. The bathroom and showers are old. No power socket in the bed

Plussat: Staff is GREAT (hostel & tourism office) A plan offered every evening. Free luggage storage! Good location in St Kilda, but you need the tram/bike to go to the CBD.

Miinukset: Cleaning could be better/more often as there are many people.

Plussat: Close to the tram station, and there's a woolworths and convenience store across the road. There's also free breakfast.

Miinukset: Room smelled musty, blankets were too thin, room is quite small, free wifi was limited.

Plussat: pancake breakfast is good

Miinukset: Our room is right next to the entrance. People actually have to pass our room before they go to the reception. And People who came back during late-night always forgot to bring their own key so they knocked banged the door all night, which is very annoying.

Plussat: The price

Miinukset: Free daily WiFi lasts about two minutes, kitchen was filthy every time we went in so didn’t eat there and so spent the money we saved on the cheap hostel in restaurants, very loud at night/early morning, one night there was a girl screaming outside of our room, the bedding and the duvet looked like it was about 10 years old. We also were woken up every morning by what sounded like someone drilling on our wall from the other side from around 7.30

Plussat: Hot and stable shower water till midnight

Miinukset: Noisy till 22:30 at night Breakfast was self-service pancakes Without milk and toast Hard to find a free overnight street parking space around backpackers

Plussat: The free pancake breakfast every morning is a nice feature.

Miinukset: A bottle cap fell out of our blanket when we unfolded it, which was pretty gross and made us wonder when the last time things had been washed. Also, we had a room with a window that connected to the outdoor patio/smoking area and the smokey smell was super prominent in our room and the noise was almost unbearable. They closed that section down at 10pm thank goodness but then there were people screaming, running around, and slamming dishes and doors in the hallways and lounge until 7am the one night and 4am the next. We could have been unlucky with the people who were staying at the same time as us but the staff did nothing to try and ensure other people could get a good sleep... That mixed with the construction on the front entry way starting at 7-8am ensured that we got very little sleep and will not be staying there again.

Plussat: In a great location in n St Kilda right by a team stop and by the shops and coffee places etc.

Miinukset: - First room was so dirty we asked to move. - Second room was still very dirty but better - Blood/ red stains on towel that needed to be changed out. - Smoked drug butts and ash all in the bathrooms and all in the courtyard. - Corridors smell like feet as everyone leaves their shoes outside their rooms. - Staff joked when we complained about the filthy bathrooms. - WIFI is free for 500mb but I used it on my phone and on my phone settings clearly only used 100mb then it kicked me off the WiFi and more is $10 dollars.... although one friendly member of staff did help us to get more. - This is a no alcohol hostel yet everyone sits around drinking in the evening?

Plussat: We liked having our own room and own space, we liked the free coffee though there were never any spoons. We liked that it was one of the few hostel which provides towels, though they were stained it was a nice touch.

Miinukset: The hostel was sold as having “free breakfast” which turned out to be a vat of pancake mix which you cook for yourself between 8-10am (which explains why the air is thick with smoke). However if you’re not downstairs by 9 to beat the other people to it, you best have a back up plan for breakfast, because you’re not getting any here. The kitchen facilities were extremely poor and not well monitored, we only saw two staff members throughout our 4 day stay. Cigarette butts lined the floor of the bathroom and dirty shoes take up the lengths of corridor. The kitchen window is held open by a chopping board and the whole place is extremely reminiscent of a very low budget university accommodation. “Free WiFi” is also a lie: you get about an hour a day and after that you have to pay.

Plussat: The staff was extremely nice and helpful
