Very comfortable stay. Bunk beds were all full-sized mattresses in the room I stayed in, which was a bonus I had never seen. The bathroom was clean. Lockers were available for use but I did not see any locks, just so you know - maybe bring your own padlock if you want to use one. The location was convenient for me. Staff were friendly and allowed me to check in later in the evening with no issues. I would absolutely stay here again.

A good hostel, easy to get to buy public bus ($1.25 for each different bus, no transfers for some bizarre reason so take as few as possible, such as route 50 from Hobby airport to Eastwood transit then 25 to block away (Peggy Park). Takes about half an hour to 40 minutes to walk to CBD (downtown). Only issue is there's just two bathrooms for whole hostel and the shower and toilet in the same. Also not a fan of getting sent codes for doors would prefer a key or card.

Wanderatay is well located for walking to the museums and there are a few decent local food and drink places but it is also very close to the freeway and has no A/C, which can make for a difficult night's sleep. Noting that free earbuds are provided.
