Well designed room with a lot of privacy around each bed. Each guest had their own locker with a safe inside. The pool area was compact, but a nice place to relax. Good location just 5 minutes walk to the centre of town and the beach, and 1 minute walk to the Greyhound station. Kitchen was quite big and plenty of places to eat, both inside and outside.
Kitchen needs some attention - there was lots of mouldy food in the free box, all fridges were absolutely stuffed to the brim, there were very few utensils and cutlery available, all pots and pans were old and broken.

I had an extraordinary stay. Staff was very friendly, let me drop my suitcases early and use the pool area before check in. The pool area was lovely, but the room was over the top - 4 bunk bedroom with private bathroom, aircon, brand new mattresses, a fridge and sound insulation. Slept like a baby, it was so so quiet at night. People were friendly too. The hostel recently bought the hotel next door and converted their rooms into 4 to 6 bunk bedrooms with private bathrooms, so it really feels like you're in a hotel. The location was great, too. I also liked the locker system where everybody has a small locker for groceries in the kitchen. I honestly think this is one of the best hostels in Australia.
The kitchen could have been a bit cleaner.

I really liked the room was immaculately clean and I was very lucky to be sharing with some nice girls. Usually, I end up doing a quick clean of most rooms because my first job was a hospital cleaner. The bathroom had a rain shower which was a new experience for me. I felt so clean. The TV, lights nightlights ect all worked.
Apparently, the hostel has an age limit of 35 but this was not explained when I booked on the internet. I am told it was in the small print. I am not sure if this is a law or a guideline. The receptionist was surprised I was 62 and going to the Boney M concert. I reasoned the ageing process happens to everyone (provided you live long enough), so I thought most people would cope. I think my logic worked because she smiled. Also, the hostel is locked at 11.00 pm. Do you have a nightguard?

It wasn't fully booked, so I had enough personal space. The room had heating so it was warm. You can borrow a hair dryer from the reception with an ID as deposit. You can get hot water from the pantry.
Toiletries like shampoo and body wash were not provided. The pantry was not very clean, so I didn't spend much time there. The reception in bunk isn't 24 hours, if you check-in after 7pm, you'll have to go to another building (next to bunk) for check-in. There are not enough lights in the room, the beds basically blocked all the natural lights. Sometimes you have to use the torch in your phone to be able to see things.

Hot tub next to the pool!! It was incredible and a great way to meet people. The kitchen was big enough and very convenient. A lot of comfortable common spaces to eat and chill. The room was built in a way that gave great privacy to everyone in the room. There was a light and power in every bed. Very comfortable, and there was also a balcony. The location was amazing, right on the greyhound bus station, 2 minutes from the beach and shops, and right on all the public transport lines. It's super easy to get anywhere.
The kitchen could have been equipped a bit better, sometimes basic things like forks were missing. Price was a bit steep, but I suppose it is a good hostel in a great location. Some more hooks in the room would've been good.

Spacious room with good wifi, helpful staff, comfortable bed and modern interior. The location was also great which allowed us to easily get into town & use the local tram service.
The bathroom was quite small, and the door to our ensuite blocked our shower, which made it hard to get in & out. The closeness of our room (third floor) to the rooftop bar (floor below) was also a bit noisy.

Great location by the beach! The hot tub and pool are awesome social areas and well-maintained, the kitchen is very wide and spacious, super handy lockers for discrete food storage. The common lounge couches are super comfy! Free brekkie is very handy and is available until 10am, which is a much more reasonable hour for vacationing adults than most other hostels offer... The beds are comfy and each room has its own shower/toilet, as well as a small balcony. The staff and cleaners are lovely and so helpful!
The common lounge area closes at 10pm. That's too early, and not very handy when all your roommates are sleeping but you still want to chat or play with new friends...

I had a nice stay at Bunk, Jen 'the German ;)' the receptionist was such an amazing person and always ready to help. She was amazing staff that I had an interaction with and got a lot of stuff sorted for me so massive thanks to her. Tell her I will keep her in mind when I come next time.
Just the shower, the shower in the bathroom was really bad and slow and the hot water wasn't so hot as well given it was winters. Otherwise, rest everything was perfect.

Location was perfect. Close to the train station, bus stop, shops and beach. The hostel was always clean and tidy. Rooms were spacious and had plenty of storage, and we enjoyed having the balcony with view of the sea.
The elevator was out of order during our stay :(. Carrying our luggage to the top floor was slightly inconvenient, but manageable throughout the rest of our stay.
