I get up early to pack as check out time is 10am. Super Shuttle pick up is not until 12:45pm so I hang in the City Lodge lounge for a couple hours. I don’t arrive in Melbourne until 5:15pm. I take the Skybus shuttle from the airport which has accessible buses with a small ramp to Southern Cross Station. Then take a Skybus shuttle which has a lift to Nomads Hostel. Nomads has one entrance with 5 steps and another to the right that’s accessible from the sidewalk. Once in they have a lift to the main level. I get someone’s attention to lower the lift and a Nomads manager comes over. The lift has been broken since January and they are still waiting on parts. There is a deck around back that has two steps they can build a ramp. He helps me up the steps and I check in. I drop my luggage in the room and head to the bar in Nomads. The room is very basic no TV, no phone, no coffee marker and no A/C. Just 4 walls, a bed and bathroom. The bar has a pool table and a nice deck. Not a good thing for me to have a bar and pool table in the hostel. I have a few beers and play a game of pool by myself. Charlie, another traveler at Nomads, asks if I want to play a game. We are now playing slop and two shoot rule. If you have a foul (scratch, miss hitting your ball) your opponent gets two shoots unless they make a ball on their first shot. We play and I beat him. The ramp is built later that night and it is steep. I tell the same manager that the ramp is probably too steep but I’ll try it out tomorrow. I head to bed
