Ce sont des escrocs !! J'ai réservé sur Hôstelworld une nuit pas de choix "refundable" ou non déjà. Du coup je réserve je paye 10 dollars, j'arrive sur place le gars me que je suis trop vieux (36 ans au lieu des des soit disant 35 maximum accordé par l'hôtel) alors que j'ai eu le working holiday visa . Je lui dit d'une j'ai jamais eu accès à ces conditions qu'à d j'ai réservé sur le site ça m'a directement emmené à la page de paiement. Le pire je vérifie mes mails et je découvre dans mes spams le courrier des conditions de l'hôtel après avoir payé. Du coup ils ont pas voulu me rembourser ma nuit d'hôtel un truc de ouf, c'est des arnaqueurs n'aller pas ici. Jai eu des échos d'un autre backpaker que c'était super sale dans les sanitaires, des cafards qui peu vent balader sur les table à manger. Voilà je vous donne mon témoignage du seul Hôstel qui m'a écoeuré sur Sydney que j'en ai fait une dizaine. ESCROCS !

Best hostel in Sydney! The vibe here is amazing. Staff are beyond helpful and lovely. Location is perfect for sightseeing and being in the middle of it all. Selection of room sizes and facilities are great. There are organised activities too which are so much fun. Can’t wait to stay again!

We stayed in the 4 bed and 8 bed rooms and they were the most spacious of any we have used before. The staff are beyond helpful and friendly - we felt so welcome and at home here. The common areas and bathrooms are regularly cleaned, and there are lots of social events available for guests. They also have a partnership with the bar downstairs which gives great discounts on food/drink. I wouldn’t stay in any other hostel in Sydney. Thank you for a fantastic stay!
