Walls really thin so heard everything flap penning in room next door. Was clean and in a great spot for catching the bus - about 15 min walk to the city.

excellent facilities, large lockers with powerpoints inside which is fantastic, each bed has its own light. air conditioning, hair dryers in the bathrooms, hair straighteners in some of the ladies bathrooms, 2 tv lounges, bar, theyve thought of absolutely everything. near roma street station which connects to most train lines and is where the main bus terminal is. huge kitchen but still not quite big enough for the amount of guests, dont bother trying to cook between about 7.30 and 8.30pm

We stayed at this hostel 2 times, and had a great time both times. One really fine thing is, that there is quiet at 22 evening - every evening! Both rooms were first class and equipped with both refrigerator and it was possible to make coffee or tea, We will absolutely book in at your place again, if we return to Sydney.

everything seem good but things i notice that have problem would be the security issue. i was given a 4 bed dorm with locker but without a locker door. i also see guest lortering around in the area. other then that, every was good, big tv screen, pool, kitchen facilities, great friendly reception staffs and ya...the luggage room and level 5 tv lounge seem to have rubbish all over the place but to be fair it might not be staff fault as it was highly usage places

It had all the stuff - kitchen, balcony, pool etc... but it was just a big McHostel compared to others on the road - people just passed through so there was an antisocial atmosphere....

I thought it was one of the nicest hostels I have ever stayed in, the staff were lovely and very helpful. But what let the hostel down was the cleanliness of the bathrooms ESP the showers and the lack of them. Bit of a shame! I also found glass in the pool which was reported to reception but no one did anything about it. Other than that had a lovely stay thank you.

It's a good place to stay even though it's located on a bit far away from the center, but shower-heads were really low-pressure and the internet access fee was expensive.

Excellent run hostel. Exceptionally clean. My one complaint is that the showers have very low pressure. Location is ok, about 10 mins from the coach station and 20 mins from the city centre. Would recommend.

A bit to big to be fun even if the staff really tried to bring people together. But it was clean and safe.

Lovely and clean. Quite lively in the corridors at night however. Great views from the rooftop pool at sunset.

The airco was defective, took a while to get it solved. The couches at the tv room are really old.
