Only stayed here as I needed a place to keep my stuff overnight and get a quick sleep in before a flight. The room had a disturbing smell and there was only one power outlet. The beds were also quite dirty. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Price reflects the quality, fair enough but isn’t that clean enough for the whole room. The curtain has dust on it and the sofa looks like a few decades old, also the noise from the outside is very much loud.

Friendliness of staff and shop retailers in the area. Location within walking distance to light rail and close to everywhere I wanted to go. Julian a guest who took my bag up to the second floor then was interested to know my opinion on where I went. I felt completely safe walking in the street at night being on my own and female. Most guests ignored me but this I didn't mind since the desk staff were so friendly. I'd gladly stay again. This was the first holiday I had by myself so I got to go where I wanted without having to compromise to suit someone else. I was born in Sydney and loved living there, I'd move back if it wasn't so expensive to rent. Coffee cafes cheaper than Queensland.

This is my first time in a backpacking hostel and I really enjoyed it. It's just a short walk from Museum Station around 7 minutes, the place is really clean and tidy they have a billiards table tv room with a movie night on Thursdays with free pop corn and chocolates, I went during Mardi Gras and there was free glitter and makeup to get ready for the street parade, I was really impressed, I chose a single room the only negative is the mattress is a bit uncomfortable but not too bad I ended up putting the bed quilt on top as I could feel the springs in the mattress I'd definitely go here again when traveling to Sydney again Jeff

I STAYED only 1 night. The staff was friendly. My only complaint was there was no lift and i had to go to second floor. Ok for young people but i am 75.A lovely French girl carried my luggage up stairs and found my room for me. The room was small but had a clean bed, power points, alarge wall fan and hooks for clothes. The toilets were near and reasonably clean.This was a Saturday night and the room was quiet.dispite the number of people outside attending restaurants etc.

Well organised hostel, staff really good. Unfortunately guests slam doors and there's a lot of noise from the traffic and extractor fans. Great that you can leave luggage in lockers and kitchen very well equipped. Lots of bathrooms cleaned regularly, did see a couple of cockroaches in corridor. Very handy location just 5 min walk from the train station

The place was relatively easy to find and it was close to everything that we needed. The room that we stayed in was clean, the bed could have been more sturdy I felt like it was going to break. The common areas were relatively clean. The staff were very helpful and kind

The staff were friendly and the events put on at the hostel by staff were great. The location was awesome as it was very central so walking everywhere was convenient. With it being located on a busy street, the rooms facing the street are extremely noisy, but the rooms off the Main Street were fine noise wise. My only issue was that the room I was in did not have a wifi signal in the room so I had to stay in common areas to use the wifi or use my cellular data.

Great value option for a single room close to the city. Bathrooms were not the cleanest, but there was always a shower/stall available. Front desk staff were super friendly/helpful. Otherwise, feels like a standard hostel -- fun activities/plenty of people looking to make friends. I did appreciated that it was not loud.

Great location. 1 short block from George St trams up& down city. Very clean bathroom and kitchen. Im a grandmother, had a small single room that was basic but clean. Don't expect the Ritz because it is a backpackers, but cheap prices give very good value for central Sydney. Friendly reception.

Insanely dirty, looked worse than a jail cell. Why can’t you eat in the room you paid for? No airport shuttle even though it appears that way when you book. Shared bathroom even though that wasn’t communicated when I booked…I left and stayed somewhere else.

Thank you for the stay! Your staff was courteous and helpful! This was my first time in a hostel, my rating is more to do with the hostel experience than with your excellent service. I basically didn’t like how loud the outside premises were, the bunk bed my friend and I slept in were ricketty and made tons of noise. Still, for only requiring a bed for a few hours, it wasn’t bad.
