    Rooms are large and clean, the amenities were clean and tody and the staff super friendly! Great value, and great location. Very happy with our stay here. If we need somewhere to stay in Sydney again, we'll be back.

    One of those places where all the floors are sticky except for the places with old, stained carpet. We were somehow accidentally booked into and given the key to someone else's room, creating an uncomfortable situation when we walked in on an already-occupied bedroom that the occupant thought was locked. At least the manager came and got it sorted right away. The bedroom was pretty decent, and roomy. The bathroom was on the dirty side even compared to cheap, crowded hostels I've stayed at, and only one of the three showers on our floor was in full working order, and with nowhere to set down or hang anything that needed to stay dry. The common area on our floor smelled a little funny, but was pretty comfortable, and the kitchen was clean and well-functioning. Free use of the laundry machines is a very nice bonus, and the wifi worked well. The location is great, which is necessary to justify the price for a place of this low quality. Really below-average overall experience even for rough-and-tumble backpacker accommodations, which is why I feel forced to give it only two stars out of five.

    We got locked out of our room, because the lock didn't work. It got stuck. We couldn't get our things for over 14 hours and the staff just kept sending us away. We didn't know what was happening or when we would get our stuff and we had to walk around in the rain with only the clothes we had worn the day before, cause we didn't have anything else. We did not get ANY compensation or any proper apology from the hostel. A real disappointment. Did not feel like they had our best in interest at all

    Budget hotel! Great price but didn’t enjoy the black mould in the bathrooms. Also the only full length mirror was in the elevator.

    Hostel is very centrally located. Staff very friendly. Rooms very small and walls/windows are not very well isolated. Take earplugs. Everything else considering price value totally ok.

    Room had a faint smell of mould which was not pleasant. Other than that, great price and great location. Would stay here again if there is a room available next time. Might ask for a different room though.

    For a hostel it was quite expensive. I had no great problems with this place apart from our room having a cracked window and we had no extra blankets to keep warm. Fortunately we received one from reception. There also wasn’t any space to put clothes/towel when showering. Our room was relatively spacious and I liked how each floor had its own kitchen, lounge area, and bathrooms. Bathrooms were clean, and kitchen/living room was tidy. Nice service as well. Location is close to food outlets and sealife aquarium and Sydney zoo

    Loved my stay here. Had to stay a couple of times and the staff were great. It’s a shared bathroom private room hostel type location but I liked the feel and location was good for me!

    The location is perfect. Service was great, specially Sara from reception (the french speaking girl). The room's walls are thin, you can hear your neighbours, so maybe not the best place for light sleepers. It was clean but the carpet from the hallway and living room needs urgent replacement. It was dirty and smelly. Bedding was comfy and clean.

    Good value hostel-style private rooms in the Sydney CBD. Staff were nice and rooms were pleasant. Communal facilities were good and well looked-after.

    Stayed in room 2, 2nd floor , I was attacked by bed lice or type and have ended up covered with red bites across my body , I attempted to contact through the email site . This turned out to be just for booking , and they don't seem to care enough to pass on the concern for the next Guest to be saved from this concern , No attempt to connect me with the Hotel , sorry we are just the booking site . Failure to even attempt to connect me with the correct email address leaves me willing to post this to warn others . Don't stay in room 2 , 2nd floor . I paid extra for the private bath room . My attempt was to just let them know privately not make a public concern .

    I booked the room in booking site. It was a great experience here. just pay when you check in. The staff is very friendly, patient and helpful (when I forget my key in the room :)))) then the door lock itself then I could not get in twice). The room is extremely clean. I cooked there by myself as they have a share Kitchen and living room. The room I stayed doesn’t have it own bathroom too, however it doesn’t matter because they have enough very clean shared bathrooms and toilets. Plus, in my opinion, the price is cheap compared to other place nearby :)

    Excellent staff and service, nice large rooms, excellent kitchen and bathroom facilities. Main issue - smell is grimy in the rooms - fixed with opening windows

    I am not usually one to post reviews, yet feel people should know what they are paying for. Let me preface this by saying that I know this is a room for under $100 yet the overall quality is very poor. Road noise, several long black hairs throughout bedding, the room door was unserviceable and took 2 phone calls and over half an hour for the after hours manager to let me in. Loud AC that us not individual to the room, broken window that created a loud noise associated to the AC. Bathroom facilities a old and worse than a caravan park standard. Kitchen while useful is equipped with broken items and lacking cutlery. Spend a few dollars more and stay elsewhere

    As an avid traveller this is potentially one of the worst places I've ever stayed at. First of all the check in procedure was awkward, the gentlemen checking me in kept staring at me. I booked a private room on the second floor, and the first thing I was greeted with was a horrendous stench coming from the communal bathroom. The smell was of a mix of urine and chemicals and it was clear that the bathroom was not cleaned regularly. In the shower there were 10-20 bandaids in the cubicle. I complained to reception in the morning and this still wasn't cleaned come evening, and the smell in the bathroom has gotten worse and could be smelled from my bedroom. Furthermore there was a crack in the bedroom window meaning that the room was cold. Upon complaining, reception moved me to the 3rd floor where I had a bedroom with an en suite. This room was not clean, the bed was not made and the fridge was mouldy on the inside. The bathroom was also filthy. Save your money and stay somewhere else or you will be uncomfortable.

  • 1/5 Travis S. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst place I have ever stayed, no parking close for less than $100 a night, disgusting rooms mess everywhere and dirty bathroom amenities. Roaches in the bathroom and dirty dishes in the kitchen. I recommend staying anywhere but here!

  • 2/5 Jayde M. 1 year ago on Google
    The place needs a very good makeover. It's extremely outdated. The location is great and the staff were really good too!

  • 3/5 Jeffrin J. 8 months ago on Google
    Rooms were clean although bare but that is to be expected. The shared bathroom was surprisingly very clean. Will definitely come back

  • 1/5 Kirsten M. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff are helpful and friendly. My room got upgraded to a private bathroom however the room was dusty, the air conditioning unit so noisy the street noise was less distributive and the water pressure in the shower was hit and miss. The bathroom window blind was broken and the window too which meant cockroaches came into the room. This place has degraded since the photos were taken and even though the location is well situated definitely not worth the $240 I paid for 2 nights.

  • 1/5 H M. 1 year ago on Google
    Bedding was not changed from previous guest and had red stains on the sheets and doona. I called the night manager who was quite rude and acted like I was making a big deal over nothing when I asked her to change the bedding. She reaaaaly didn’t want to change the bedding. Room smelled like cigarettes and mould Carpet was gross Bathrooms were ok - pretty grotty - nowhere in the shower to hang things to stay dry such as a towel or clean clothes

  • 2/5 Claudia V. 8 months ago on Google
    Its great position justifies the price which would otherwise be unbelievable for a place so below average. My biggest complains are the extremely uncomfortable showers (nowhere to hang or put your things while you wash up) and absolute lack of privacy in the bathrooms, plus the strong smell of mould and closed space in the room. The walls were stained (with some smashed mosquitos here and there) and there was what looked like a mouse hole in the wall in front of the bed. Overall not the worst, but certainly not the best.

  • 2/5 Emma H. 8 months ago on Google
    The thing that saves this place is the location and the friendly reception. Otherwise it wouldn’t stand a chance. Dim lights in room, walls paper thin, plugs hanging off walls, but the toilets are what threw it for me. One of the cubicles had an exposed roof, door was dodgy to close. Shower cubicles had no room whatsoever I had to undress, put my towel round me, then leave my stuff outside. There was also a hairdryer plugged in with the wire hanging under the paper dispenser (wire could get wet from dripping hands). Not sure how this works in Australia but UK health and safety would have a field day with this place.

  • 5/5 George’s W. 5 months ago on Google
    I had an amazing experience at this hotel 1. Customer service was friendly and warm 2. Location was right in the city 3. Room was very comfortable and the bed was the best I slept on in a hotel for a while. I rate this hotel 5 stars as it ticks all the boxes for a great and comfortable stay😄

  • 1/5 SKYE J. 5 months ago on Google
    Would not recommend staying here. They have a creepy man who is a long term stay. Watched us from the window everyday and made wired comments when we walk pass. Only good thing about staying here is the location

  • 5/5 Sonia K. 5 months ago on Google
    Luin varaamisen jälkeen kommentteja täältä ja hieman kauhistuin. Paikan päällä kaikki oli kuitenkin positiivinen yllätys tähän hintaan nähden. Luksusta ei sovi odottaa. Rakennus on kyllä vanha ja sisustus jokseenkin vaisua ja kulunutta, mutta kaikki toimii ja pelittää mainiosti. Keittiö ja vessat olivat yllättävän siistejä. Talo tarjoaa paahtoleipää ja kahvin ja teen aamuisin. Ihmiset kunnioittivat hiljaisuussääntöjä (22-07). Jos olet herkkäuninen niin ota hyvät korvatulpat mukaan, koska kadulta kuuluu liikenteen äänet huoneeseen läpi illan ja yön.

  • 1/5 Mimi T. 4 months ago on Google
    I decided to checkout on the night because the room gave such eerie vibes and not the good kind. As soon as I opened my door, there was a creepy old guy standing at the door next to me just staring at the door as if he was on something. Completely terrifying and would not book here again. The hairdryer also doesn’t work and the bathrooms were way too open. I wasn’t comfortable showering in the shared bathroom for how open it was. I did not feel safe staying there although the staff were really nice. The bedding was definitely not the same colour and had stains. I started feeling really itchy as well lying in the bed and the lighting in the room was very dull.

  • 5/5 이시진 4 months ago on Google
    Wonderful service. I'm sure they are the kindest staff in Sydney. Everything is perfect. If I came back to Sydney, yeah definitely I’ll stay here.

    For price this place is awesome. The staff are Sooo lovely and you can do your laundry for free. The kitchen is well equipped and clean and tidy. There is also a shared living room and iron and ironing board which was great. We stayed in room 45 so didn't hear any traffic as we were high up.

    Despite they are budget hotel. I didnt expect much. However this place exceeds my expectation. Clean and tidy room. Very well maintained and full facilities. (They provide free laundry facility! how good is that). I love that they have shared kitchen and living room in every floors. So it isnt overcroweded when peak time. Price we pay for is reasonable compared to quality and facility we recived. Overall is another recommded hotel in sydney cbd.

  • 3/5 hp s. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Used during my stay in Sydney. The building was old on the whole, but the rooms and communal space were clean with no particular problems. The communal shower room is shared with the toilet, especially the shower room door is not locked, so that's the biggest drawback. There was nothing in particular, but I was a little worried because other guests also passed each other. Also, there are no amenities at all, so it is better to bring it in various ways. I wonder if there were only towels. We negotiated whether we could rent a phone at the reception to call the tour company, but be careful as we cannot rent a hotel phone. At that time, the sister at the reception was a good one and lent my own mobile phone, so it was quite a bit. Because the location was in a place where shopping was not a problem, we could walk around in various ways and it was convenient. It was a bit far from the opera house, but it wasn't a walking distance. (About 20 minutes?) I'm glad if you can use it as a reference! (Original) シドニー滞在中に使用しました。建物は全体的に古いですが、部屋も共同スペースも特に問題のない清潔さでした。 共同のシャワールームはトイレと一緒になっていて、特にシャワールームのドアは鍵が掛からないので、そこが1番難点。特に何事も無かったですが、他の宿泊者もすれ違うことがあったので少し気になりました。 またアメニティーは全く無いので色々持参した方がいいです。タオルだけはあったかな。 ツアー会社に電話をしようと受付で電話が借りれないか交渉をしましたが、ホテルの電話は借りれないので注意です。その時は受付のお姉さんが良い方で、自分の携帯電話を貸してくれたのでどうにかなりました。 立地は、ショッピングには困らない場所にあるので、色々歩き回ることができて便利でした。 オペラハウスまではちょっと遠いですが歩いて行けない距離ではなかったです。(20分くらい?) 参考になれば幸いです!

    A very welcome change from the party hostels everywhere else. This place is quiet! Most other guests I saw were over 30 (like me). It's got a small kitchen on each floor, good sized bathrooms, and free laundry! The location really can't be beat. I loved staying here. I would absolutely come back here if and when I come back to Sydney.

    (Translated by Google) The location is close to Darling Harbour, and there are bus stops and train stations nearby. The transportation is very convenient and there are many supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The environment is clean and tidy, the bathroom is equipped with shower gel, shampoo, hair cream, living room and kitchen space, and there is elevator, the room is not small, you can spread a few suitcases, no problem, it is a good choice for cheap accommodation in Sydney (Original) 地點靠近達令港走路就能到,附近公車站、火車站都有,交通十分便利,附近也有許多超市與餐廳。 環境整潔,衛浴附有沐浴乳、洗髮精、護髮霜,客廳與廚房空間大,而且有電梯,房間也不小,可以攤開好幾個行李箱也沒問題,是雪梨便宜住宿的好選擇

    (Translated by Google) Very close to darling harbor, spacious room but nothing exceptional decor, very spartan bathrooms, we had the room that overlooked the common kitchen and we questioned twice with some guys who messed up late at night, apart from that I recommend it maybe ask for a room away from the kitchen (Original) Posto vicinissimo a darling harbour, camera spaziosa ma niente di eccezionale l'arredamento, bagni molto spartani, noi avevamo la camera che dava sulla cucina comune e abbiamo questionato 2 volte con dei ragazzi che fino a notte tarda facevano casino, a parte questo lo consiglio magari chiedete una camera lontana dalla cucina

    Good value for a central location but is not luxury if you are looking for that. The reception guy is fantastic you can often find him singing to ub40 in reception ?. So close to everything. If your looking for just a place central to lay your head and explore then 100% choose here. Would come back

    (Translated by Google) Very central location in Sydney a real plus. Clean double room. The place was quiet, the common areas are well equipped. (Original) Lieu très central dans Sydney un vrai plus. Chambre double propre. Le lieu était calme, les parties communes sont bien équipés.

  • 3/5 Sandy D. 4 years ago on Google
    Basic but clean. It's ok value and in a perfect location in the CBD but huge downside is no air conditioning in rooms and restricted window opening which would be an absolute nightmare during a Sydney summer.
