I love this hostel! Literally had the time of my life staying here! There is a little bit of something for everyone. There's the blue room (otherwise known as the drinking room) where people play guitars and teams play beer pong, people dance on tables and galloons of goon get consumed. Then there's the TV room, a room for chilling, catching up on your favorite programs and generally hanging out. Staff are friendly, rooms are basic but location is fantastic where your in the middle of the action

The mattresses and the bathrooms were dirty like hell. We had fear to get bedbugs.

Do yourself a favour and DO NOT STAY HERE! It is disgusting. Only suitable for people who enjoy smoking indoors and like to shower in pure filth!!!

the location is very handy ,by kings cross station,if you want to go to cbd,or central staion, it will cost you around 2-3 dollars one way i think. supermarket near by . the rooms are quite small,so dont expect fresh air in the room. matress not so comfortble,bunk beds a bit shaky. no blanket is supplied,although you do get a sheet. (this didnlt bother me since it is quite hot anyway). no air con in the rooms. kitchen is ok, quite big, the common room doest smell too clean.friendly reception

One of if not the worst hostel I've ever stayed at! The location is great (right on kingscross, close to everything and all) but that's just about it! The hostel is old and some of the beds and cupboards are totally broken and the rooms are tiny and stinking hot (even though it was cold and rainy outside). Bathrooms are unisex and there is far to few showers and toilets (2 toilets per floor and 4-6 showers). The kitchen is filthy and not very well equiped. Simply not worth the money!!

All the rooms, the kitchen, the fun room, are very very very dirty. probably nobody clean this hostel for a lot of time. the location is good because you are in the middle of a lot o pub and disco and if you want to have fun in the evening you don't have to move a lot
