The hostel was geared toward young travelers. It is convenient to a train station (and airport train) and has lots of shopping and dining around. The two guest bunk room I rented was tiny but adequate ,communal showers and toilets old but clean. Loved the over sized window in the tiny room. 24 hour staff was helpful.

Such a lovely hostel, the first one I stayed in when I arrived in Australia and the last one I stayed in before I left. Definitely my favourite out of them all. Can’t fault it at all! Very clean bathrooms and bedrooms. I did shared rooms and a private room and both were fab!

The location is unbeatable—right next to Central Station. Both the beds and the shared bathrooms are very clean, and the hostel even offers a free walking city tour. The kitchen is spacious, well-managed, and perfect for cooking your own meals. I would definitely choose to stay here again the next time I visit Sydney.
