Ulasan Nomads St Kilda

Comfortable stay for a couple. Just what we needed in a good location within walking distance of St Kilda Beach and multiple restaurants and grocery stores. Would stay here again for a short stay

Clean rooms, friendly staff. 10/10

It’s was very pleasant stay and the buffet beast was a no brainer

Hostel that is a great location but has odd rules that no outside food or drinks are allowed in your room

Great location. Friendly Staff. Highly recommend

Best hostel in Melbourne

Nice and Easy check in staff are friendly and helpful, rooms aren't huge but for the price, can't complain!!

Absolutely love this backpackers. Amazing Environment great staff that are always smiling

쾌적하고 호스텔임에도 개별화장실이 방 안에 있어서 편하고 좋았어요! 비치도 가깝고 시설도 다양해서 장기로 묵기에도 좋을 것 같아요

호스텔 들어갈때 리셉션이랑 입구가 인상을 좌우하는데 호스텔은 깔끔하고 리셉션은 밝고 친절했음 1층에 바가 있어서 깜짝 놀랬는데 파티를 한다고 함 나는 월화요일 있었는데 마침 그날에 생일이었고 광란의 빙고파티였음 ㅋㅋㅋ 덕분에 타국에서 맞는 생일 재밌게 즐겼음 혼자만 동양인이어서 더 새로운것도 있었음 주방도 깔끔했고 북적이지 않아서 좋았음. 대신에 요리할 수 있는 공간은 비교적 협소 룸은 깔끔했고 모바일로 열어서 쾌적하고 좋았음 다른데는 카드만 3-4번 찍고 들어가야 하는곳도 있어서 방에 화장실 있는건 축복이었음 하지만 화장실이 한칸이라 눈치게임이었음 가장 중요한건 킬다비치가 매우 가깝고 주변에 울월스도 있어사 좋있음

It’s a cold winters morning in July and you wake up with a hangover from Big Willy’s Monday Night Bingo at the bar downstairs the night before. You can’t remember what happened but there’s smudged red lipstick on your cheek and $400 cash in a bucket beside your bed. You get up to take a shower in your 8 bed dorm room’s en-suite, making sure you’re the first in there because there’s nothing worse than using the bathroom after 7 other people first thing in the morning. After getting dressed you go down to Ackland Street just round the corner from the hostel and get the best coffee of your life from one of the many famous cake shops. It’s a beautiful day and the air is crisp so you take a walk down the beach to see the penguins by the pier and admire the city skyline. On your way back you stop at Woolies for groceries and cry at the thought of paying over $10 for three bloody capsicums (they’re called peppers to the rest of the world). You walk into the hostel kitchen to make your food but there’s no room to cook since half of the hobs don’t work. Not to mention you’d also have to clean everything before you use it because apparently no one has been taught how to wash a saucepan before. Since there’s also no room in the fridge or cupboards to store your food, you go to put it in your room (at least the cockroaches can’t get it there). Suddenly you panic because you can’t find your key card, then you remember that it’s on an app. Finally a useful app! Eventually you say f*** it, let’s get a McDonald’s. On the out the door you stop at reception and say “I’d like to extend my stay please…” You’re glad you booked Base St Kilda.

A lot of the reviews put this as a social hostel but I don't think this was the case. I stayed in a 6-bed shared dorm with bathroom and most of the people in the room were workers/long term guests (They had been there for 3+ months). It felt like I was living in their house and I didn't feel very welcome. It also meant that it was very messy and so couldn't be cleaned thoroughly. The bathroom was also very dirty and there was mould on the ceiling.

Only positive was the location, decently comfy beds, and good sized lockers. A lot of the staff were unfriendly, and the party culture made it so empty during the day. The shower was either freezing cold or lukewarm. Incredibly noisy place to stay - even on the third floor you can hear everything until 1am, including people shouting in the hallways. Breakfast was awful. Alright if you literally only want a party, but otherwise go elsewhere.

Nicole and Keri made the experience lush and food was to die for only complaint is that they are leaving us and it really makes me want to cry but we have to look at the positives in life not the negatives so 10/10 experience and 20/10 for looks
