Everything is prefect! Nice and clean. The room basically sounds proof. Very quiet. Got curtain for every bed, provide privacy. I rent a bed for a short stay. Only thing is I kept kicking the box above my feet when I was sleeping and woke up multiple times. Overall, I think it’s a very very good hostel.

It was a very comfortable short-term stay, especially at the price level & for what is definitely the busiest weekend Melbourne hosts. The facilities were fine & more than adequate, the staff & service excellent. The premises & room were very clean & well / frequently maintained. It was a very convenient stay especially with regards to entertainment, shopping, food & transport. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again or to recommend to friends.

In leui of lockers you’ve got a lockable cabinet which you can occasionally hit your leg on, had some small cuts due to this. I can also imagine it can get hot during the winter the ceiling fans provide small comfort.

absolutely enjoyed my stay at Bounce. Staff are helpful, the room, whilst small is incredibly well appointed with power outlets in good spots, and a super comfy bed. The hostel itself is lively and ideally situated close to the theatres and directlky opposite Flinders st station. big common area with a huge kitchen and lots of tables and spots for socialising. And there's a rad brecord store in the basement which becomes a bar with a generous happy hour after 5pm.

Budget friendly but tired

The building is very tired and the bed was worn out. The staff however were absolutely wonderful and very friendly. This is a budget hotel and while they are trying hard it could do with a freshen up, I've stayed at better for a similar price.

I stayed in one of the single rooms. It was so beautiful and inviting, even with it being minimalistic. The little speakeasy-esque bar downstairs is really inviting. All of the staff were super friendly. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
