Cinema Hostel is unique, one of a kind. I came to rest but if you lije night life, the bar and music is very popular. Nicest big outdoor balcony i have ever seen. I like the private capsule rooms, they seem a bit bigger than other hostels. Its a memorable exoerience to stay here .

Quirky place with good atmosphere. Cabins were a bit dusty and some communal areas could do with a deep clean. But wouldn't put me off staying there given the price.

value for money with private ensuite in a hostel
friendly staff, modern and lively vibe and cozy common area. Room a bit tiny but fair enough for backpackers. The only downside is the sound proofing need to take caution. There's a asian convenience store just opposite the hostel!

Clean and Convenient
Our experience was the Cinema Hostel was friendly, fun and staffed with hard working employees and volunteers. Common toilets and showers were clean, and we were offered cleaning service in our room. Breakfast had several choices and coffee is free 24 hours per day. Wash your own dishes, clean up after yourself. The women at reception were helpful with suggestions and advice. Plenty of good food for take out or groceries nearby and a pleasant terrace to enjoy it. Fridge available for guests but crowded. Rav-Kav card was available at the front desk for ( I think) 5 pounds. Load it at the bus/light rail stops. So convenient! Thank you.
