Well situated, 2 steps from Central station. Good wi-fi in rooms and common parts. Each bed has a dedicated closet (you have to bring your own locker) and a small very practical bed lamp. There is a nice and usually quiet common space separated from the kitchen. Overall clean in rooms and common parts (even if as usual, in the kitchen, some people are just spoiled and don't clean after themselves :/). HUGE common refrigerators in the kitchens provide enough space to everyone (which is not the case in some other hostels). Enough showers and WC. Hot water in showers. Enough washing machines. Friendly staff. The clients are a mixture of long-term stays and a bit older backpackers. You won't find the pub crawls and all-night partys here, but you will get a calm and confortable home. I particularly appreciated the fact that there were separate trash bins (recyclable - non recyclable) in the kitchen.

Location was superb especially if you are travelling to explore Sydney. 3 min walk to Central Train station, Tram is literally infront of the hostel! Aircon was superb! We even found it a bit cold, but better that than hot! It is perfect if you are a backpacker or traveling with friends and you are young. Mark you that the bathroom is not inside your room (just like almost all hostels) so make sure you are AWARE of that. NO issue on us on that one. Just had to wake up a little early to shower or shower the night before. They were very accomodating. Just want you all to remember that this is a Hostel not a Hotel. 10/10 <3 Would book again!

This was my 4th visit to Australia. Actually, I didn’t expect much because of my first 3 experience staying in a hostel in Australia was terrible. Considering also that they offer the lowest price for Sydney the time that I booked them. But to my suprise, the hostel exceeds my expectation. Clean Bedroom with Comfortable Bed, Clean Toilet and Shower, Big Kitchen and Fridge, Near the Central Station, Near Haymarket. Comfy and Homey TV Room Also, one of the big factor as well that I enjoyed my stay is that the long stayers there don't act that they own the place. They are respectful, specially in kitchen. Would love to stay here again :)

It has all you need. The building has 7 floors, and backpackers fluctuate a lot, so the facility is well adjusted to the number of people coming and going. Big kitchen, where everyone fits, with simple but plentiful breakfast each morning, you can leave there a luggage if you have a free morning before checking or afternoon before flight. Location. It's next to the train station, or metro (T), which is a few stops from the airport. A tram stop (L) is in front of the building, which can take you all the way to the harbour, Opera house. There is a bus stop that takes you to Bondi or Maroubra Beach.

Location was great- right outside a tram stop. The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming. The room was spacious and lockers were provided, the rooms were cleaned daily and kept to a decent standard. Room checks were done, checking aircon was correct etc which was really good. Toilets were cleaned regularly and really clean- nice showers, very spacious. Kitchen was clean. Lots of room and loads of seating. The fridges were a bit full. Also the free breakfast was good and refreshed regularly. Overall really good value for money!
