Best hostel I’ve stayed at
Hands down the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. The staff was super friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The bed (bunk in shared dormitory) was quite big, comfortable, had an individual light, charging ports and a curtain for privacy. The rooms, the washroom and the kitchen were cleaned every day and the noise was kept to a minimum always. Very happy with my stay and will be back if in Sydney again. It was also well situated. Easy to get to from the airport via train, to the beaches via bus and a walkable distance to the Opera House.

I stayed there for my 15 hours of transit. I didn’t expect that much but the stay was far better than I expected. The rooms and facility were clean and neat, staff are welcoming and creating warm ambiance. I definitely visit the city and the place again in the future.

Very affordable, clean, and safe! I'm on the plus size so I was worried about the sturdiness of the bunk beds, but that wasn't a problem at all! The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I will definitely stay here again!
