I booked a private room at this hostel the second weekend in November. The nightly rate was very high for a hostel, but most rooms in Sydney are expensive at that time of year. First of all, the elevator was not working, and I was given a room on the third floor. The hostel clerk offered to ask someone to help me with the luggage but I declined. The private room was clean, as was the bathroom. But the bathroom was very small, and the shower did not drain properly. I had to be careful not to flood the bathroom floor whenever I took a shower. If you are looking for a basic private room, that is what it was, but at $250 per night, It definitely was not worth the rate.

Staff and checking was awesome. They even upgraded me to a good room. I would be happy to stay here next time too as it is very convenient to move around. Downside - Broken fixtures in bathrooms and loud doors. Elevator is being fixed which was not ideal for me to walk 3 stairs after running a gruel marathon ( 5 floors to kitchen) Rest else, great work team and loved my stay here.

Location was excellent, close to public transport and very central. Bedding and room was clean, but bathrooms and other public spaces not kept clean. In the kitchen there often weren’t tea towels to dry dishes or enough clean cutlery.

Very nice spot and super nice staffs, the downfall is clubbing downstairs until dawn, which makes you feel like you are sleeping on the dance floor 😂 we had a room with crossing outside, and you can hear that beeping all night long. Good lock system, good facility, everything was clean. The bed was a bit cheap but for that price I don’t expect much more. Overall pretty nice, would suit young people.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were super nice and helpful. The other guests all seemed pleasant enough, just doing their own thing in the lounge area. The room (double with ensuite) was clean, tidy and the furnishings and bedding were all in good condition, but the ensuite's water pressure was a bit low if I am to be picky. The only real let down is the noise from the Scary Canary. Rooms in the 220-30 range are best avoided as they sit directly above the bar/nightclub and sleep prior to 3am on a weekend is impossible, even with the supplied earplugs.

No ventilation, smells too bad, You can't breathe
We paid a low price but the conditions of the room are not habitable, room 123 has no ventilation, the window is sealed, and it is located at the end of the hostel, lack of oxygen and the air conditioning does not work, they should do a deep cleaning The carpet smells like urine throughout the room, we assume it is because there is no ventilation.
