• NATACHA (9/5): - My prefer hostel in Sydney very well maintained very good location very clean lovely staff Anna Sharon ect... and very friendly managers 😀 The blanket and missing microwave
• Paisley (8/5): Solid hostel experience. - The staff were FANTASTIC and very accommodating. The rooms and bathrooms felt clean and the kitchen was fairly clean as well. The bar below was a fun environment and there are a few good grocery stores within walking distance. not enough bathrooms for the hostel, it felt like I always had to wait in line. with the bar below it does get a bit loud but best just to go down and join the fun.

• kim (10/5): - 가성비 갑!
• Yumika (8/5): - 4人部屋は広くてとても快適でした！ よく清掃されていて全体的に綺麗でよかったです。 洗濯機がないのが不便でした。 夜間も車の音などがうるさい。
• Molesworth (6/5): - The volunteers and certain guests were very pleasant. The volunteers were constantly cleaning up after people who obviously weren’t taught how to clean up after themselves. Cooking was a bit of a nightmare. You don’t really want to use any of the cooking equipment before cleaning it yourself. Otherwise, the other utilities were clean and worked well. Probably best for 1-2 nights
• Lilia (6/5): Cheap price cheap service - I like the size of the room and the location That was dirty as hell Nothing was cleaned I think I stayed in a unwashed bed I had a allergie crisis because of it

• CHEONGSONG (10/5): -
• Manoela (8/5): - Great location, confortable facilities and friendly staff. Rooms and toilets could be cleaner
• Mayra (8/5): -
• Carolina (7/5): Friday karaoke night - Comfortable beds, clean, big rooms. The Showers a bathroom were clean a good Ventilation. The rooms are fresh and spacious. If you don't mind sleeping above from a bar on a Friday karaoke night, I think it can work. The street noise was another pointless.
• Parra (8/5): - O dono e voluntárias super simpáticas, espaço amigável com ótima localização Senti falta de mais espaço na cozinha, para a quantidade de pessoas ela é pequena
• Antoine (9/5): -
• Troy (7/5): - Close walk to the SCG
• Isadora (8/5): Boa. Entregou o que precisávamos - Perto de ponto de ônibus. 20-30 minutos dos pontos mais turísticos da cidade e do aeroporto Tira baratas na cozinha e quartos. Poderia ter um barco ou móvel de apoio no quarto
• Elin (7/5): -
• Giuseppina (5/5): Mala experiencia con voluntarios - Si bien está un poco lejos del metro, tiene buena conectividad. También valoro que tiene los baños suficientes para todos los huespedes. Buena cocina. Estuve tres noches en su alojamiento y si bien a grandes rasgos la estancia fue positiva, creo que uno de los puntos más negros fue la disposición y vinculo con una de las voluntarias que estaba en el lugar (Anne). No solo fue despota al saludar el primer día, sino que además, nos informó que debía cerrar la terraza de una forma desmedida. El segundo día, llegamos a cocina a las 21:00 horas (la cocina "cierra" a las 21:45) y de forma inmediata se acercó a decirnos que solo quedaban unos minutos y que nos debíamos retirar. Mientras cocinábamos, con agua caliente, ella no dudó en meterse entremedio y limpiar la cocina; sin duda podría haber causado un accidente. El resto de las horas que pasó en las zonas comunes lo hizo de mala gana, haciendo fuertes ruidos al momento de guardar la loza o sacar la basura. La verdad es que nos hizo muy desagradable la instancia. También notamos presencia de cucarachas en las habitaciones.
• Gavin (5/5): - The Location No towels. Only 3 showers for the entire hostel. No air-conditioning. Bring your own towels.
• Meruzhan (8/5): - Норм
• Marijke (6/5): - Nice atmosphere, close to the centre of Sydney. Mattresses were comfortable, bedroom was large enough The hostel is on the corner of a busy intersection, above a popular bar. The bedroom I slept in was right above that intersection. The kitchen had only 2 induction plates and 1 sink for washing up for the whole hostel. There were only 3 showers for every one, not enough.
• Dabin (8/5): -
• Yujiro (4/5): 値段が最安なだけある - 安い、ロケーションよし 六部屋で一つのシャワートイレをシェアだったのが不便。

• Fatma (10/5): -
• Ernesto Sebastian Antonio (10/5): -
• James (6/5): Get what you pay for. Decent enough. - Decent location Pub under it Digital keypads Showers were awful No toilet roll
• Juliet (4/5): Only stay here in winter. - This hostel feels like a London backpacker hostel. It felt like being in London during the height of a furnace English summer. Yes, they've renovated this Bat n' Ball hostel; beautiful new second fix. But it doesn't change the fact that during the Australian summer, the upstairs (cos the hostel is a separate business from the bar downstairs) of this probably-Heritage-listed pub, traps heat; and heat can't escape, or be cooled down, anywhere in, or on, this level. What they could do is purchase temporary, proper, portable aircon machines. Run the aircon hoses to the window sills and fashion some packing around the window. This option might then also block a fraction of the traffic noise.
• IIDA (7/5): -
• Kiah (8/5): Convieniant location - The location was great, the keyless entry was amazing, loved the shared spaces! The room could have done with a bit of a clean, it was not in the best state but aside from that the sheets were clean and the beds were comfortable

• Vincent (5/5): - Aucune réception ou contact humain Clairement un hôtel et non pas hostel : loin de toute convivialité Personne ne se dit bonjour ou parle entre eux Chambres très lumineuses, bruyantes et très mal aérées
• Charlie (8/5): I'd like to stay again - I liked that the kitchen had everything needed, there was space for my dry food on the shelves and there was space in the fridge for my chilled foods. They even had a freezer with space. Plenty of places to sit to eat all of my meals. The wifi was only bad around evening peak times, which is understandable. The staff always maintained the cleanliness, particularly in the kitchen. The 6 bed room was big, with good sized lockers and plenty of natural light. The volunteer staff were very friendly and helpful. I found the bed to be extremely comfortable. Hand towels in the bathrooms/toilets would have been nice. Air-conditioning would be a great addition, because when it hits 25 to 30 degrees celsius, the dorm becomes unbearable to sleep in. I found it weird that they vacuumed the floors during a time (9pm) that should be relaxing for guests.
• jbalzer (10/5): -
• Amy (8/5): Very good location, good value, spacious bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. Can be hard to find external door to the hoste - Bar staff downstairs very friendly and helpful, rooms and bathrooms spacious, mostly clean, bedrooms and bathrooms generally clean. Had to enquire at the bar and by phone to get my room number, another girl who came in at the same time as me had the same issue. Toilets not super well maintained, sanitary bins full, regular rubbish placed in sanitary bins, toilet room so small the door doesn’t fully open and you have to shimmy in around it. Kettle could do with a good clean or replacing. Seperate door to access accomodation very hard to find as a first timer, no clear instructions provided on finding the door.
• Remi (4/5): -
• Rojas Parra (8/5): - Clean and peace hotel The kitcken area is so small
• Ava (8/5): Excellent final hostel stay in Sydney that had everything I needed (except laundry!) - I loved how small it was so there never felt like there was too many people! Everyone was very friendly. The layout was great, and there was plenty of room when using the kitchen or dining room or rooftop area! The pub below could be quite noisy at times as well as the noise of cars going past and sirens going off at odd hours.

• Chang-Hao (6/5): If for just a night stay it’s a place you can consider with the price - N.a. The facilities aren’t that good there’s no lights in the room.
• Zazzeri (9/5): -
• Aimee-Leigh (9/5): - nice amount of space in the room! .
• Fouret (10/5): -
• Dulcinealex (10/5): - L'ambiance est très bien et le rapport qualité prix exemplaire ! C'est bien équipé même si petit quand on se fait à manger (faut éviter les heures de pointe). Petite terrasse super agréable et bar en dessous pour les plus fêtards ! Self check in très bien organisé Petite odeur de renfermé mais rien de choquant
• Maria Luiza (10/5): -
• Dorothee (9/5): -
• yanis (10/5): - Staff members, the fact that it's just a few rooms with 4-6 people Nothing
• Do Kyun (10/5): Easy place to stay.GREAT LOCATION and pub downstairs was amazing. Also extremely awesome food - Very clean. Easy access and good location. Pub downstairs is awesome I wish some toilet was bigger but it’s still good accomodation
• Veronica (9/5): Great place - The ease of getting in and out, it was quiet for the location it was in which was very nice.
• Mattia (10/5): -
• Baret (8/5): -
• agathe (8/5): Good Hostel - The localisation is next to bus station, and central. It's a small hostel, the people are nice and respectful. Clean bedroom, bathroom and common space. There is a rooftop terrace. For the price, it's a good deal. The noise from the pub downstairs could be bothering espacally durring the weekend. The heat during summer is heavy and no air conditionner. No real reception, but we got there late and it was fine.
• Rei (8/5): - 近くにカフェや公園があり立地はいいと思う。宿泊客は下のパブで割引を受けられる。 共用スペースのテーブルが汚かった。ニューイヤー価格で料金が高かった。
