we had a good stay here overall just a few areas that could be improved. the main issue was the water pressure in our shower, not sure if it was just our room but having a shower wasn’t even worth it. pool definitely could have been nicer, didn’t really look like the photo but not a huge deal. the breakfast buffet was decent for the price but not anything amazing. but very good distance to trains and easy to get anywhere in the cbd. also excellent opportunities to do activities that the hostel offered and the room was basic but comfortable enough.

Very good hostel.
The location is very good, closed to Central station (direct from the airport). The neighbourhood is nice, a tram station at the door of the hostel. You can walk to Town Hall, there is a market nearby.
I was in a private room. Good matress, good bedlinen.
Common areas are good, big kitchen to make your own food.
They are very strict with check out. Check out time is 10am but the key no longer worked at 9:50am to go to the bathroom or return to the room
I would come back

Great location, with access to light rail right at the front and central station across the road. They have nightly movies and events spread throughout the week. The continental breakfast is fairly good. The tubs of Greek yoghurt were a pleasant surprise. They only had full cream and skim milk, so vegan alternatives would have been appreciated. There was a strong selection of various pastries too. About the rooms, nothing to really complain about. The blanket they provide is nice and warm. The lockers are very spacious with a small top compartment too, probably the best design I've seen so far. WiFi is very fast, no problems with congestion.

This hotel was worth the price. Staffs were great, easy check-in process (they offered all the guests various daily activities, make sure you join it cause it is free), they also provided luggage room, in case your room wasn’t ready yet, you can store your luggage in there by your self. Room was convenient, clean, tidy, and quiet. They have laundry room and working room, canteen is provided as well. Not to mention the location, superb. It was located nearby the central station and Sydney light rail, it was super cool. Definitely will recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

The staff at the reception were great, courteous and the check-in process was quick and seamless. The location couldn’t have been better wz the Haymarket Tram stop right at your doorstep and the Central Railway Station right across the road. The room was of a decent size and the Aircon, which is very important for us, was good as well. The en-suite bathroom was okay, the water pressure was not great but sufficient. We didn't know that it's a hostel that offers en-suite Rooms but it's actually not a full-functional hotel. So the ironing etc. are provided in a common area of the floor, no mini bar/fridge, wardrobe in the room other than a clothes hanging rack. Felt like the place more suited for young, digital nomad type travelers as we saw some dedicated co-working places as well wzin the facility. Overall I’d say it’s a decent place to stay.
