Easily accessible location. 5 min walk to Queen Victoria Market. (Private) room was clean and equipped with towels and toiletries. Seemed to have a lot of facilities that I didn’t check out (lounge with pool table, rooftop, etc.). They had a cook out on the roof top the night I came but I sadly did not join. They have daily activities such a trivia nights, etc.! P/S luggages can be stored for $3 on day of check in, and $10 on day of check out. Towels can be bought for $8 and hair dryers can be borrowed from the reception (just leave your ID)

Ritz is family! i've spent my first four months in australia there and i must say i would come back there (maybe soon :P) as it really holds precious memories. i stayed in the 10 Female dorm and it was amazing room with plenty of space, windows and light. cleanings are regular and well made, people are willing to make you fill at home and kitchen is spacious. Ritz can only be experienced on your own skin to understand how special it is! i'm travelling around australia right now and Ritz keeps strongly his gold ranking #1 . i miss you Ritz!

It was our first time staying at a hostel and summer house is the best one we could have picked. The private room is spacious and the bed is super comfortable. The toilets were very clean and new. The staff were all extremely nice and everyone else that we met were all welcoming. The bar downstairs serves a great pint and its very easy to get into the city from the hostel by tram. The kitchen, although a bit small, was cozy and well cleaned every day. We could borrow an iron and hair dryer from the reception which was really helpful. There is a very cozy TV room and the staff was really helpful and accommodating to us. They definitely made our first hostel experience an extremely pleasant one. Kudos to the team at summer house!
