Stayed in the mixed dorm, everything was clean and comfortable just what you want after a long day. The bathroom facilities were always clean and fresh. Loved the group activities and table tennis.

Friendly staff, they do well with cleaning. It's a good place. The location is what I love. About 5min walk to Kings Cross station. Food everywhere. Awesome!

We stayed in the private room for four nights as a treat on our way down the coast, and we weren’t disappointed. The chocolates and champagne were such a nice treat we felt like royalty. Super comfortable bed and lovely private bathroom. Well worth it!!!

I stayed in the Private room over New Year’s (10 days). It was so affordable, less than half what I would of paid in any hotel. It was the best time of my life and I’ll be back again, it’s the perfect location for enjoying Sydney. This hostel is great, clean, friendly staff. The private room was modern, spacious, had its own private bathroom, TV, tea and coffee, lock up safe. They gave us complimentary champagne and chocolates for New Year’s Eve. Amazing!!!
