to get started.

I loved how clean it was everything, very comfortable place even at the common spaces at any hour. Check in was fast, and the staff was very friendly.

Estefania, Chile

Cheerful hostel in the center of Sydney very close to most of the attractions. The staff is great and willing to give you advice. Several nice activities organized by the hostel during the week

Oiki, Mexico

Location is awesome only outdone by the excellent staff and friendly atmosphere!

Mary, United States of America

It has a view of the opera house in the roof and a 24 reception.

Bin_eden, Kuwait

I stayed here twice (before and after a short trip to the Blue Mountains). This is an excellent location. Close to The Rocks, the ferry wharf and the train station. Very efficient operation. Nice staff - very helpful. There is a message board with postings about everything you need to know about the hostel and things to do in Sydney. The place is clean and has a good kitchen.

Renee, United States of America

The staff were a bit uninterested, they were helpful although a bit more of a smile would be nice. It's hard to socialize here since everyone is a bit on their own. Check out is too early! It's a hostel so please give us bit more time for a snooze.

Lydia, Switzerland

The complex was huge. I didn't expect it to be so big. But the rooms were clean and comfortable. The locker were big and had charging areas inside so you can leave your batteries charging. The kitchen area was equipped with everything you need. The lounge area was nice and the rooftop view was great as expected.

Leelee14, United States of America

Nice hostel. Great location. Great views from the rooftop

Christophe, Germany

Facility was very good. Each bed has a light and charge station. Even in locker you can put luggage and charge valuable inside of it. Location was good. You can see opera house everyday. On weekends you can look around the rocks market.
