RReece96Nice spot, walkable to everything and in a good busy area. Staff are friendly and facilities were great and very clean. Enjoyed my stay. Not the most sociable though, I would stay again but don’t expect to really meet people here. More for somewhere nice to sleep.

TTraveler …Looking for an unforgettable stay in Sydney? Look no further! I recently had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic hostel that offers the perfect combination of convenience and comfort, right near Sydney's top attractions.
This hostel boasts an unbeatable location, placing you within walking distance of iconic landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Exploring these renowned sites and immersing yourself in the city's vibrant atmosphere has never been easier.
GGuest UserI’ve stayed at this hotel a few times, and it’s always been great. The location is super convenient, the rooms are clean and have everything you need, including a kitchen. The staff are really friendly and always make you feel welcome. I’d definitely stay here again!
GGuest UserI was lucky enough to have my room ready in advance, before 2PM and since my flight arrived early in the morning, that was really nice !
Cathy was also a wonderful person in general, throughout my stay.
The room is pretty big, with a sink and a fridge. 👌🏻
The room I had is next to the common area however people weren't too loud, especially in the evening despite it roughly being the dinner time so that was nice.
The area is very chill, a few schools and houses around so not loud at night. It is, however, situated on the planes' route and they are pretty low in the sky since it gets close to the airport. But there aren't any at night (around midnight until 6AM I would say) and it's not every 5 minutes either.
The sun set pretty early at that time of the year and to me, I felt like the neighborhood lacked lights for people to walk around but it wasn't much of a bother and not something the lodge can change, so just a heads-up to have a small light/enough battery on the phone to use when coming back from your day trip activities.
GGuest UserOnce you get your expectations right- this is a no-elevator, shared bathroom accommodation with a bar as their reception and concierge and no room service- you will be okay. Location is great- near Central station and around shops and restaurants. There is no room service and bathrooms are clean but very basic. There’s only one toilet on the 2nd floor (that’s where I stayed, not sure about 1st floor) which was usually okay but there can be waiting time in the morning. There is no power outlet near the kettle in the room; I had to use it near the bed!
TTina FeWe stayed at room 13, The window couldn't be opened. It has some soud proofing on top which lessen the noise that is coming from the Parramatta road. The room smells mouldy and mask by tiny air freshener. Towels, toiletries and bottle of water (upon check-in) is provided. We do not have a chance to use the breakfast facilities as we left before check out time
2213311****Hygiene: Overall, it was clean, but there were dead cockroaches in the wardrobe, and the towels were old with permanent stains.
Environment: The environment was not as good as shown online.
Service: When there were issues, service was provided, but not always promptly.
Facilities: Initially, the light was broken (and there was only one), no fan, the shower faucet wouldn't turn off completely and kept dripping loudly, and there was no WiFi. After communication, the first three issues were fixed, but the WiFi was not.
GGuest UserCleanliness is very important to all the hotels and accommodation. because it can cause diseases. Dust comming from the fan and air-conditioning when it's running. I show cockroaches coming through the gaps on the walls. Specially the noise from the doors and air-conditioning need to be replaced. But although I realised this is how we all end it up if we after economy room. Management is very friendly but need more attention of cleanliness and maybe it's time to do renovations.
Thanks
