Worst reviews
- Avoid this hostel. Very poor management by Marie, she can’t handle people and obviously not a hostel. There was a serious flea infestation in our room (photos available), when we reported it, the situation was handled very poorly by her. Housekeeping threw away our labelled food by mistake, when we asked for the refund, she wouldn’t even care. There’s no common areas to chill after 8pm, which makes the place even worse. Overall, very bad management and an uncomfortable place to stay. So many rules, it’s like a prison not a place to have fun. Would not recommend at all.
+ They make you 20 dollars discount if you put a good review, so don't believe those 10 star reviews.
- The staff was rude and racist. The kitchen never had coffe, most of the people don't follow the rules, but if they are European they will get a warning as the most harsh action. On my last day the assistant manager was shouting and fighting with another guest in the stairs, everything is bizarre
+ Le rooftop
- La réception

+ Marie and her staff are really welcoming and helpful, the rooms and common areas are kept really clean and tidy, comfy beds, great showers and the location is perfect. Thanks for having me 😊
+ The hostel is spacious and clean! The kitchen is a great size and the addition of the air fryers makes such a difference. Bed was super comfy and the rooftop is the perfect size for the amount of guests. All the staff and volunteers are so helpful and friendly, anything I needed they were happy to help with.
Brilliant stay at Summerhouse - the private room was perfect, very spacious!

Really nice hostel, highly recommend. I stayed 3 months and had a great time. Feels like home with easy social vibe in kitchen, bar and rooftop. Facilities are great: well-equipped kitchen, clean spaces, storage and free WiFi. Rooftop has amazing St Kilda views and chill/work space. Friendly staff and 24/7 reception. Barkly’s Bar next door has cheap happy hour and good food. Would stay again.

Really nice place, not too social but good location however there is a big BEDBUG problem which would need to be addressed properly.

+ Nice place well kept a pleasure to wander around
- Just a bit expensive
Dirty place with poor staff behaviour. If you are brittish or irish come here, you can get away with everything, drinking and making partys in the room while people sleep, being as dirty as you can, not do your dishes etc. If your skin is not very clear I don't recommend this place, they will systematically make your life harder. Plus, they always run out of coffee and tea, the kitchen is small awkward and dirty. there is an ample rooftop which had bag beans so dirty they had to throw them away.
Really nice clean hostel ⭐️ super friendly staff and great atmosphere to make friends !!!
Had to switch rooms bc they’re letting a girl stay there that was a literal tweaker and was throwing around loose threats and implying I’m carrying a gun bc I’m American. After I switched to my new room they informed me they had bed bugs in there and that I needed to switch rooms again. Didn’t feel comfy staying there at that point so asked for a refund for the rest of my stay and they said no, all they could do was pay for my laundry. Other staff told me there’s bed bugs through many ...
