The staff was so friendly and the showers were very clean. Even though the hostel was in central location, it wasnt loud on Saturday night.

Liked how small it is, so it’s more like a family type of environment

Had a great stay here for a few nights finding my feet in Sydney, very clean rooms and bathroom facilities. Bondi to Coogee walk which the hostel put on was a great way to meet a few people who weren't in my room. Big thanks to Laren and Jordan for helping me with my Australia admin too!

Staff were very friendly and happy to help with all questions I had on arrival such as where to go what to see. The rooms were decent with lots of storage. Kitchen had everything I needed but was a left dirty most of the day. Overall I had a good stay
Akane “Thanks for the lovely night. I pretty enjoyed the stay.”

First of all, the receptionist(🇬🇧) was absolutely awsome! She's so good person, cares about everyone who stays hostel even for me who stayed for just one night. The hostel has an event for each day, the day that I stayed was a BBQ night, so I could get a free dinner as well! The people who stay at the hostel were so nice too. They're all so welcome like family and I really really enjoyed BBQ, playing cards and chess with them. Plus, I made a language partner. I wish I had more day to stay with them. I was bid sad.
