Firstly, the positive feedback: My room was clean and they provide you with a towel and a bar of soap. The building is air-conditioned. The staff were friendly. Generally speaking the place looks newly refurbished and what you get for the price is decent. There is a well equipped common area on each floor with a microwave, fridge, toaster, sofas and racks to hang clothes to dry. The hostel is also in a pretty good location. Be aware that they don't allow any alcohol in the hostel, and they have other strict house rules, which some people might not like. Now for the negative feedback: It's a shame because if just a few basic things were done, then I would have given this review 4 stars. The bathrooms weren't clean, there was no toilet paper in any of the stalls. The stalls are showers combined with a toilet, which is fine, but they weren't cleaned once during my 3 night stay. The WiFi doesn't work, and when I asked about it the staff said that it wasn't very good - but it just didn't connect at all. Although this place does give you more privacy than a regular hostel, the rooms aren't completely private, there is a large gap between the top of each room wall and the ceiling so that you can hear everything other guests are doing, and if they turn on a light in their room, you'll wake up. This really isn't a big issue if you have respectful people staying there, however I struggled to sleep because some guests were inconsiderate. They'd be slamming doors, talking loudly at eachother, turning on lights at 1am and again at 7am. I think that this issue isn't so much of a problem in regular hostels, since you're literally sleeping in the same room as other guests, therefore you're naturally more aware of being noisy. The separate compartments at 'Spot On City Hostel' make it easier for guests to be rowdy. I know that this isn't technically the fault of the hostel itself, but it is a fault in the design of the place. The last thing to mention would be that there are bats in the building next door that are constantly squeaking. I mean genuinely nonstop, all day and they get louder at night. I've seen some people in the reviews for this place call them rats or birds, but they are definitely bats. Overall, if you're looking for somewhere cheap for a short stay, and if the cleaning and restocking was done better, I would recommend this place. I do however think that if you don't mind staying in a regular hostel, then you'd be able to find better accommodation elsewhere.

Room small, just bed and cupboard with 3/4 wall so you can hear everything on that floor. Fortunately other occupants respect each other and keep it quiet. Bathroom little bit dirty. There's water dispenser and microwave in common lounge. Near food court and bus terminal. For very low cost hotel, this is great choice

EDIT: three days later I can confirm I got bitten by bed bugs. Now it’s just one star man. Please stay away. I rarely write reviews. If I didn’t like the room I usually let it go. However, in this example I can’t. I was the loudest hostel I ever slept in due to outside noise (birds, rats, cars). I couldn’t sleep for two days because it was so loud. I know other guests had the same problem. There is also a gap between ceiling and the wall so you can hear everything other guest do. So there is absolutely no point of renting your own room since there no privacy anyway. Also the wifi doesn’t work. It’s not slow, it just doesn’t work at all. Water pressure is very low and you can barely take a shower, however, water was hot. The house provided towels, soap and drinking water which was nice. The hostel service was also nice and friendly too. Overall for that price I find the rooms really disappointing due to extremely loud noice and lack of privacy.
