The Hostel contains accommodation for the manager and a duty manager, reception, laundry, public café and lounge, disabled facilities and will accommodate up to 50 persons. Facilities are generally shared except for the provision of four private bathrooms incorporated into the double rooms. A shared private bathing room has also been provided.

A very restricted budget combined with difficult foundation issues (it was built over a railway tunnel). These factors were responded to with a rudimentary design strategy, low cost concrete block and concrete construction were used in a basically orthogonal and efficient structural diagram. However, the interventions of the curvilinear stair form with a selected use of rich colour, central sky lighting, and lightweight steel detailing sctivate the external character and internal space beyond their essential rawness.
