I was staying here for an entire month to get to know Melbourne after my semester abroad in Southeast Asia & I enjoyed my stay a lot. As a tall person I experienced it to be absolutely fine. My personal highlight was the well equipped kitchen with a gas stove. For the price point of a hostel it is a very beautiful stay I would always recommend.
Lastly it has to be mentioned that Asanka and his wife Imeshi are incredibly sweet hosts with lots of interesting stories to tell & you should not be shy talking to them :-)
