Kangaroo Bakpak Reviews

Where to start, We walked into the hostel that smelt like a bottle of wine and cigarettes. The girl working there had no idea we had booked online and couldn't keep quite about how hungover she was and that they didn't have any beds available. The place was a state absolutely filthy and terrible communication. After waiting 40 minutes for the house manager to turn up we left as there was no show of him. We were absolutely disgusted with the place.

Lovely guests. Everyone friendly but rooms and kitchen were dirty.

A really cosy and small hostel that makes you make friends very quickly with everyone staying there. The manger Shane is really friendly and makes the stay even better.

Great little hostel in a decent location, free washing,free internet and the manger Shane is a legend. Had a great Australia day, thanks Shane and everyone at Kangaroo backpackers for making it a Australia day to remember.

I had a great stay.great location, great fun. Met loads of nice ppl.Great hostel manager, goes out of his way to make sure everyone has a great time and everything they need

honestly iv traveled around the world and stayed in a magnitude of hostels and regardless of what any other review says, this is in my top three. amazing people. AMAZING showers, an amazing time. :) well played kangaroo bakpak, well played

Awsome place to stay, very accommodating and friendly. Free breakfast and wifi is a massive bonus, close to the city but at enough away if you are wanting a quiet stay.

My favourite hostel in Sydney. It's small, clean and very friendly. The manager, Shane, is very accommodating and helpful. A great place to stay, either short term or long term. 10/10

When I was there the hostel had a real laid back student-flat feel to it. The manager Shane went out of his way to show us around town and even gave up an afternoon to drive and guide us around the Blue Mountains! The kitchen was a bit on the small side and not particularly well equipped, but overall it was a friendly place to stay and well priced. Free wifi and breakfast were both good. This is also the only hostel I've come across in 7 months of travelling to offer free use of their laundry washer and dryer!

On arrival I rang the doorbell several times, got no answer. Called the phone number on the confirmation, got no answer! Eventually the manager answered with no shirt on, clearly having just woken up. The place was a disaster! Broken beds, filthy plates all over the kitchen and dining area and dog mess on the bathroom floor! Manager didn't even know who was sleeping in which beds in which rooms and my friend was accused of stealing someone else's bed! Would never, ever go back!!

Shane the hostel manager is awesome :D funny, open minded guy! during our stay we had lots of fun, the only bad thing was the cleanliness of the rooms. it was okay but could be better! Overall we can recommend Kangaroo Bakpak
