I was totally discussed with staff telling me that they dont take people over the age of 35yrs old, well i had book in online and they should be sacked for discrimination. Totally horrified at there rules when they should say this on line, oh but hey i guess they cant as they would benstruck of the list of back packers. Not happy.........?

I booked 4 nights 26-30 Nov in The Village Surrey Hills on the Expedia website. When I showed up I was refused a bed due to my age. I asked the manager to show me the rules of this 18-35 AGE RESTRICTION. She refused. I asked her to speak to someone higher up.. refused! I asked her who owns the company,no info. She was of no help! I wanted to show her my booking so she could see there is NO mention anywhere while booking on Expedia of this restriction or even in the rule etc. in confirmation email from Expedia. I still have not received a refund from the hostel I was told I'd be getting. AVOID!

I stayed at the village for a night awhile back and I didn’t love my time there. Staff weren’t very friendly right off the bat. The room I had was a mixed dorm and there were beer bottles everywhere and the floor of the bathroom by the toilet was completely wet. There was no shower so I’m trying to not imagine what the liquid was. Although it’s not necessarily the village’s responsibility to make sure people don’t have drinks in rooms it’d be nice if people were more encouraged to leave them out of the rooms. I did feel a bit unsafe although everything was fine, but that feeling comes with the area. Overall it wasn’t an awful stay but it definitely wasn’t great. It is a party hostel so if that’s your vibe great, but the price I paid for a 1 night stay was not good.

For the price we paid, we had a great stay in Sydney, so this place offers great value for money if you want a private room. The kitchen was too small for cooking in and the communal areas weren’t the cleanest. The bed wasn’t amazingly comfy. The local area is great, lots of cafes and restaurants. Overall, good value for money but not the best.

Maya the receptionist was very friendly. She went out of her way to swap me to another room because I had a bad back. I was very happy I did not have to sleep on the top bunk bed.

Great location, clean, staff were friendly and helpful. Only down side was that the room I was in was opposite the 24 hour kitchen which meant it was noisy during the night.

On first appearance the room seemed clean, however there were so many cockroaches. I lost count of how many i saw/killed. Definitely a pest control problem.

So I have stayed at this hostel before but I stayed in the first building and it was great and this time I stayed in the second building where reception is and it was awful. The kitchen was so dirty, there was marks on all the cups and plates and cutlery. There was also birds and flys in the kitchen, they were all picking at the free food box. The rooms were disgusting, there was mold on the ceiling and I’m sure that’s why I have such a tight chest now and I’ve been coughing so much. The bathroom had dirt all over the floor. The receptionist was the most miserable person ever. Everyone is just so miserable.

Loved the building itself. It's beautiful. The location was well positioned to Central station and parklands and ethnic cuisine. I haven't stayed in a back packers - ever! So it felt bizarre sharing a room with 3 strangers. But no snorers, and they were obviously seasoned backpackers who were respectful of noise and lighting. Felt safe. Everyone keeps to themselves. Good bed. Clean sheets.

Place is just terrible. OK but very limited hostel (no towels provided, idk what they meant by "semi-open bathroom" on the twin room when it was just a bathroom shared with the rest of the hostel. All access was via a digital key so we had to have a smartphone on us and charged at all times. (It was also a mission downloading digital key - had to install a third party app, hand over plenty of personal information not at all relevant to the stay). Basic amenities like the kitchen were not accessible after 10pm. Prices were completely extortionate - for a twin room that literally had a mini fridge, two single beds and two (bad) pillows (total), with bathrooms we could barely use as they were usually occupied, we paid over AU$300 a night. Cannot recommend staying away from this hovel more.

Bad experience. Racist to Asian MUST READ REVIEW I arrieved around past 5pm and they are in the middle of changing shift. They were counting coins and many coins. I waited more than 30mins just to get my Goki app working. I asked if I can rent a towel, the girl name Pauline told me to come back. Around 8pm, i came back. I asked the gentleman if I can rent a towel, He asked me if I am in a private room, I said no. But still hoping to get a towel to rent. He told me in a rude way that they don't rent it out. That I have to have my own towel. That I can go but for 2$ if i need one. I was told to come back thats why i came back... (Pauline who told me to come back was beside him) If I was told that they don't rent towels, its fine, I should have had bought one earlier. Well in fact, I just saw someone "with a latino accent" renting one. If you are asian, don't go to this place. They are racist against asian. Most of the people that work here are Argentinian, Brazilian or Colombian. They even talk in front of you in español. The guy talked a lot too. He was saying that the management don't give them enough manpower to do the laundry thats why they can't rent out towel. And that "THE PROPERTY IS TOO BIG FOR THEM TO HANDLE". The property is in 2 different location. 203 and 207 Book one night to check out and decide, otherwise go somewhereelse. 2nd floor and up, NO WIFI. You have to go to a common area to get connection.

Rude reception when trying to check in, mould in the air conditioner, a cockroach ran out from under my bed, did not use shower because it was gross, toilet paper was commercial size and on the vanity rather than hanging. Will NEVER stay again.

This is a backpackers so totally understand the basic set up, however, the check-in process is torturous taking 45 minutes while emails go to and fro (no one answers the help line phone by the way) and Apps are loaded onto the phone. Not good standing in the dark and cold outside trying to get in. The seven digit door code makes entering ones bedroom like cracking a safe. The communal shower is good.
