The staff were wonderful, the room was excellent, the location is awesome; the parking was a breeze - especially for Sydney; and all for an excellent price. We wanted to extend, but unfortunately for us, they were fully booked.

Very nice, clean, quiet hostel. Staff really easy and friendly. Bit removed from the action but there’s a bus stop probably 20 meters from the hostel so not a big deal. Great place

Staff is exceptionally friendly. Situated in a cute/quiet area of Sydney. A few cafes within walking distance but for a Coles/woolies it's a bit far. Beds were comfy and everything was clean. No partying/heavy drinking was going on which is nice.

Property was ok, clean enough, check in was easy..during night was quite noisy and many people hanging around outside. Over 50 ebikes parked right out the front of the property with lots of people coming & going all night. As a single female traveller didnt feel overly safe.

Great secure property. Great staff, check in was excellent. However, they need to provide the very basics - no bath soap, no clothes hangers in the wardrobe, no jug (but they were good to provide one immediately upon request), no heater (in winter!) the air con did not work. Otherwise, a great place. I would return in Summer time

Helen

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It was pretty clean except for some food left in a cupboard. I had a double with an ensuite. The bathroom was very clean but the smell said there was an underlying mould issue. Took longer for the hot water to heat up than my actual shower takes so the first morning I assumed it was faulty and being in a rush I had a 30s very cold shower...so be patient! Ask for a kettle and toaster when you arrive if you have this type of room as I discovered that it hadnt got them in the morning. Bed was comfortable and I was surprised by how quiet the area and the hostel were at night. The staff were very friendly and helpful. For the price I paid it was still a pretty good deal despite the imperfections!
