Love this place, staff are very accommodating and helpful, rooms are tidy and cleaned each day. location is great as it's right next to Broadway shopping centre and a 10 minute walk to central station. would recommend 👍

I would not recommend this hostel, especially for female solo travelers. From the start, it feels unsafe and unwelcoming. There is no reception, and I had to ask a bouncer at the bar downstairs—who was clearly annoyed—for access, then navigate a dark alley to reach the entrance. The hostel itself is on the third floor with no elevator, making luggage and accessibility difficult. The facilities are substandard and unhygienic. For an 11-person dorm, there are only two showers and three unisex...

I had a great two night stay here. The only issue I had was the code I was originally sent for the door was incorrect. However, I was able to get a quick response from the Goki app.

I thought this was a solid property. My biggest issue is that the entrance wasn't clear. My friend and I had a feeling of what the entrance was (and actually did find it) but because we weren't sure, we had no clue how to get in. Literally was a black door with no sign on it or anything. We were trying to ring the bill and nothing worked. We had to go in with someone else and then figure out how to check in. It was a mess but was not the staff's fault. They were excellent and helpful.

To be honest we were pretty disappointed. We had to login with app because there was nobody working there what didn’t feel welcoming and kind of weird. The fire alarm went of multiple times in de middle of the night and it just didn’t have the same great atmosphere as we felt in other hostel in Sydney. It was pretty pricey and not worth it.

There isint a reception desk. There is an IPad and you get a bunch of emails (hopefully) that will guide you to download an app for a key. The bar on ground floor can help but only noon- 2am and only Wednesday to Saturday. You hear Rock music the entire time your in bed during their open hours
