The location was just the best. It was in the center of Esplanade, near the night market, so there was no trouble with sightseeing.
It was the cheapest hostel with a private room that I looked at when booking.
The room was small, but better than a dormitory.
The water pressure in the shower was a bit weak, and sometimes there was no hot water, so it was just luck at the time.
At first I had trouble opening the door, but there was a free public phone nearby, and they asked me to call from there, and they opened it for me. I was surprised that there were free public phones in Australia. Lol

One of the better hostels I've stayed in, the rooms are super clean and so are the bathrooms. The staff is mega friendly, that was the most important!

スタッフの人達はとてもフレンドリーでした。荷物もチェックイン前に預かってもらえました。ドアのcodeがくるのがギリギリで少し焦りましたが後は全体的に満足です。

立地が良く、料金も安かったので満足しました。
ただ、前日にメールが来ると書いてあったのに、チェックインの直前にしか来なかったので、すごく不安になりました。

Extremely appalling experience staying at the Espy hostel. Staff unwelcoming and discriminatory towards people over 35 years of age. I was forcefully made to leave this place even though it has been prepaid in full and I did not do anything wrong or cause any disturbance. Just my age over 35 was not good enough for me to stay at this property and staff threatened me by calling security and demanding that I leave immediately without providing their names or offering any compensation or even a refund. DO NOT STAY HERE.
