Guest Reviews

• Natalie (9/5): -
• Kotaro (8/5): -
• zhengxiao (9/5): - Prize is suitable for travellers. Staffs are really patient and good heart. You can put your luggage in the store room when you check out. And you can enjoy your trip before leaving Sydney on that day. The bed is comfortable and you do not need to make the bed sheet and pillow cover yourself, which is fascinating.
• Josefina (8/5): -
• Samuel (9/5): - Great location in CBD as close to everything. Facilities were very clean. Great place for a cheap few nights solo travelling
• matt (7/5): -
• Mandy (10/5): -
• Gillian (9/5): Good for a short Sydney sty. - Typical pod room. Not much light, which doesn’t matter as room is for sleeping only. Comfy mattress, light and power point in pod. Price is right. Luggage everywhere….over the floor, people who don’t travel light obviously. Lockers provided but not sure if they get used,
• Ilagan (8/5): -
• Ilagan (8/5): -
• FelipeFS (9/5): - Location is amazing. All provided, including towel. Toilets were clean and good untimed showers A bit too warm inside. The bed light on the top beds has no shade so lights up other beds.
• Purple (10/5): - I had a really great stay here in Sydney! hostel is extremely clean esp. the women’s shower and restroom, which really stood out. The bed linen is high quality, and the mattress is very comfortable, so I slept really well. The staff is kind, responsive, and always willing to help. Free wifi is good speed, they also provide shower gel and shampoo (learned that it's not that common for other hostels in SYD). Spacious lounge area and kitchen are quite comfy. Even though it’s located right in the city center, it’s surprisingly quiet inside. It’s about a 15-minute walk to Central Station, and there are plenty of great cafés and bus stops nearby, which made getting around super easy. I stayed for two nights, and this place genuinely made my Sydney experience so much better. Highly recommend!
• MartinValic (10/5): -
• Eve (10/5): - • Late check-out at 12 PM (upon request) • Fresh towels provided daily • Bed cleaning every 3 days • One free laundry use (for stays of 3+ nights) • Flexible date changes (applies even to non-refundable bookings) • Luggage storage available after check-out (upon request)
• Mandy (9/5): - Loved the location, the cleanliness of the place and above all the friendly team.
• Takahiro (7/5): - スタッフの対応がとても丁寧でした。 個室も、横方向にある程度スペースが広く、快適に過ごすことができました。 ランドリーが洗濯機と乾燥機1個ずつしかないため、同居者が使用中で利用できないときがありました。 共用冷蔵庫の中が既に大量に溢れていて、生物も区別なく置かれており、衛生的にも利用するのが難しかったです。
• Yougandran (9/5): Good Stay - Clean, as described, easy stay Contacting via phone was not great, as i was trying to sort something prior to the stay but was bit difficult, however i did manage to get hold of staff on the day to sort out, and they were very friendly, although it would have been better if staff was contactable prior to stay - i did try to call in business hours as well.
• Jo (10/5): -
• Maryann (10/5): -
• Jessica (8/5): -
• Filippo (10/5): Wow, non ho mai trovato ostello più calmo e silenzioso di questo. Super consigliato, anche per la comodità della zona -
• Thi (9/5): It has changed my mind of hostels.. The Pod is extremely great place for its price - Very clean and well roommates behaviours Nothing at all but if the locker can have keys would be great
• Gordon (9/5): - Extremely clean and great comfortable beds with a lot of space. Good kitchen. People were waiting at reception for checkin to begin and it had to open at 2pm on the dot which was really strange. Would be nice to be a little cheaper too for a backpackers
• AMANDA (10/5): - The cleanliness, the peacefulness, the very well valued stay.
• Eve (10/5): -
• Matti (9/5): - • Large, comfy mattresses. • Quiet doors with grooms preventing slamming. • Good Wifi enables remote work. • Well-equipped kitchen. • Large lockers in room. • Lack of electricity plugs in main room.
• Alba (10/5): Highly recommended - How the hostel was organized, specially the rooms. It was also very clean and not too noisy. Maybe having more toilets.
• DANILO (9/5): VERY NICE STAY IN SYDNEY POD - Exellent location in a bulding at 6 th floor, in city center. Everything at walking distance. Free Wifi signal ok. Kitchen full equipment. Services like showers and toilettes, cleaned and working well. Large lockers with personal padlock. Confortable bed with reading light and usb connection. Room door with keycard. Staff very friendly and professional. I steyed 2 nights, absolutely recomended. Nothing

• anna (10/5): -
• FUMIAKI (9/5): 快適に泊まれました - 立地がよく、ホテル自体が清潔だった シャワールーム
• Kaichi (7/5): - 隱蔽性及床的旁邊還可以放蠻多自己的小東西的，而且有type c充電孔。服務人員友善！ 吹頭髮只能在浴室吹，但是浴室又很熱，容易吹出一身汗。一間房間最多會住八個人，當大家作息都很不一樣的時候蠻難入睡的，建議戴眼罩！
• とめい (10/5): -
• Daniele (10/5): - Squeaky clean facilities , great location, comfortable and affordable. Highly recommended
• Anna (7/5): Ok hostel - - Great location - Very friendly and accommodating staff - Spacious pods - Relatively quiet - Super long waits for the shower, limited amount of showers and toilets - Weird and strong smell in the dorm - Very expensive for what it is!
• Andrew (3/5): Did not enjoy sleeping in that room - Person on reception was very sweet Top bunk was nowhere near dark enough to sleep. Some person in the dorm had their light on until 3am. Music pounding from the building until 3am. No cover sheet no pillow case.
• Tsz Ching Kristin (6/5): So far is ok - Close to the centre The towel water pressure so bad
• Karen (9/5): -
• Emerson (8/5): -
• Niemi (9/5): todella hyvä - Majoituspaikka oli siisti ja rauhallinen. Hyvällä paikalla ihan keskustassa. Ainut miinus puoli paikassa oli se että huoneessa ei ollut märille vaatteille säilytys/kuivumis tilaa, mutta sekään ei haitannut, sillä henkilökunta otti märät uimapukumme ja laittoi kuivumaan ongelmitta!☺️👌🏼
• Lin (9/5): - 很干净，安静 没人会说普通话，全是韩国人
• tragno (10/5): - Sono rimasta solo una notte, ma posso dire che la struttura è molto pulita e i letti sono grandi e comodi. Le camere sono di dimensioni adeguate, con bagni in comune e una cucina comune a disposizione degli ospiti. Ottima posizione per esplorare il centro e l'alloggio è vicino a numerosi ristoranti. N/A
• WONYOUNG (8/5): -
• Brent (9/5): - I have got a disability and did ask and required about a bottom bunk and told one would be available by Staff but still struggled getting to top bunk. Thankyou.
• Lee (10/5): 굳 - 굳 화장실 고리 좀 더 있으면 좋을거 같아요
• Gaile (9/5): Very good place to stay - Good location, very helpful employees Women shower room could be cleaner

• 자몽나무 (10/5): 최고의 도미토리 - 일단 위치가 정말 좋아요! 분위기는 조용하고 개인적인 편을 선호해서 일부러 이 숙소를 예약했는데 만족스러웠습니다. 시설도 깔끔하고, 침대 공간이 넓어서 프라이버시가 보장되는 느낌이 들어서 좋아요. 시드니에 있는 도미토리형 숙소 중에 이만큼 깨끗하고 개인 공간이 넓게 느껴지는 장소는 또 찾아보기 어려울 것 같습니다. 딱히 없어요
• Max (8/5): -
• Moo Woong (1/5): Def. Does not worth the money. Srsly!!! - Too many rules Arrogant staff. Very cocky
• SHIGEO (7/5): - ・周囲の人はあまり 積極的に交流を望む人たちではないようだった　交流を目的にしていなかったためなじみやすかった ・周囲の人は割と静かに過ごしていたため 煩わしくなかった ・インスタントコーヒー 紅茶が無料なものが嬉しかった ・キッチンが清潔で道具も揃っていて、大型冷蔵庫もあってとても便利だった 実際 調理している人も多かった ・しかし 名前 と チェックアウト日などをしっかり書いてテープに貼らないと冷蔵庫の品物が表に出されて 台無しになってしまうので要注意 ・ベッドは スプリングが厚く 寝心地は良かった ・日本のカプセルホテルとほぼスタイルが同じなので馴染みやすかった ・トイレが狭かった 出る時にズボンが便器に触れたりして不快だった ・シャワーが固定してしかも 湯量が少なく さらに温度が低いのであまり 爽やかじゃなかった
• liying (9/5): 我很推薦這家住宿，方便地點對面還有Coles及美食街，走路或是公車一小段都可以到雪梨市中心的景點，價錢又便宜，到機場也很近。 - 地點佳 夜晚附近有pub低沉的嗓音
• liying (9/5): 整體還不錯，因為這地點找不到更好價錢的住宿了，環境算整潔，廚房很多人煮，韓國人很多感覺一秒到韓國。 - 泰國經理態度很好，能真實處理每個問題也會親切打招呼，真實為旅客提供服務 隔壁好像是夜總會，會到晚上兩點，聲音不是很大聲但是有低重音的樂聲會傳來，第一天不是很習慣，後來就覺得可以忍耐。
• Mark (10/5): - Quiet, Great Location, would recommend.
• JYP (10/5): - 깔끔하고 친절하고 주방사용가능하고 위치좋고 퍼팩트 1층클럽이라 밤에 쿵쿵 음악소리가 남.. 그래도 거슬릴정도는 아니라서 숙면함
• HAYOUNG (10/5): -
• David (8/5): - Muy limpio, buena ubicación, espacioso No tenía sábana, solo una manta
• carlos (10/5): Modern and clean - Clean, modern and private. W/D next to full size kitchen
• barom (10/5): -
• Yossawan (10/5): - Room & Bathroom -
• Rosalind (5/5): Great place to stay - Great location very clean great staff and travellers The pod was too stuffy. A fan would have helped
• 유림 (9/5): 또갈거임 - 위치 굳. 영어 못하는데 한국직원분 있어서 너무 좋았어요 2층은 근력운동 필요
• Danlei (10/5): -
• Julie (6/5): Great location. Quiet and clean for a hostel. Ventilation and AC needs improvement. - Cubicle style bunks with heavy curtain and small # guests per room help with privacy. Guests were respectful and quiet and did their dishes! A good place for working people or students - not a party hostel. Staff were wonderful. Good walkable location - felt safe though I was not out at night much past 7pm. Thousands of restaurants and shops in vicinity. Nice 30 minutes walk to Opera House, Circular Quay, Botanic Garden, The Rocks, or Darling Harbor, or 5 minute walk to Sydney's excellent public transport system. The ventilation and AC need improvement. It was too warm in the room and common areas from about 6am to 10pm. Biggest issue is that when people cook the smell of greasy meat permeates the entire space - gets into bedrooms, your bunk, and never really goes away. This happened every night. It made spending time there unpleasant. Otherwise, I would stay here again. Only 3 sinks in female bathroom which can get crowded in mornings and nighttime.
• Paulo (9/5): - Limpieza y buena atención
• 맨 (9/5): 한국사람이거나 조용하고 개인적인 시간을 보내고 싶다면 강추. - 화장실 매우 깨끗(청소 자주하심) 객실 청소도 자주 해주심 대부분 한국인들이라 적응 쉬움 객실 조용한 분위기 주방이 꽤 좁고 냉장고의 공간이 널널하지 않습니다. 그리고 침대가 조금 푹 꺼져서 잘때 허리가 조금 아팠습니다.
• Charlotte (10/5): - Staffs support Easy access to public area super convenient amazing location room was dark and quiet enough to rest check in-out ez GenZ friendly Rmb u will share the room with others, so your morning alarm might not be loud enough to wake u up, or if it’s loud it will disturb others in the room
• Kimberly (9/5): - The dorms were incredibly comfortable and the staff were lovely. My flight wasn't until 8pm and they allowed me to keep the provided towel after checkout so that I could come back from a hike and use the shower. The kitchen was well equipped, and there were plenty of bathrooms so there was never a wait. Not a very social atmosphere
• Kyt (8/5): New, clean but expensive. - Everything is new and clean. Bed curtains provide privacy. Quiet atmosphere. Expensive for a dormitory regardless of its condition.
• Murdoch (9/5): Excellent! Better than expected! Thank You Gong, Lexie and Team! - I enjoyed the good size pod, clean bathroom, ambulant toilet, opportunities to self cater or eat out... Microwave needs to be moved to the bench, it is in the way of MasterChefs.Consider having 2 to meet needs! Hook in ambulant toilet needs to be raised higher to avoid eye injury; similar to other toilet which needs fixing for ease of entry and space.
• ANGIE CAROLINA (7/5): -
• Hsin yu (9/5): -
• Ecaterina (7/5): - Чистое постельное. Полотенце дают. Просторная кабинка. Есть свет и розетка. И одна вешалка и папу крючков. Также есть шкафчик. Свой замок нужен. В комнате очень узко. Трудно двум людям разойтись и ещё труднее найти место для того чтобы открыть чемодан. Мыло нужно просить. Общую ванную комнату нужно чаще убирать. Девочки ну очень много волос оставляют на полу которые днями так и лежат там. Только копятся.
• n_prit (7/5): Convenient, cheap stay - Staff were friendly, location was great and clean amenities. Earplugs were provided at reception. Blanket was thin and old
• Yonggeum (10/5): 추천!!!! - 정말 한국인들이 좋아할만할 숙소/ 청결/친절/공간/화장실/샤워룸/헤어드라이어/ 주방/공용공간 누구나 깨끗하고 편안한 공간에서 지내다 갈수있게 만든 최고의 시설이지 않나 싶음!! 완전 강추!!!! 없지만 굳이 뽑는다면 수세미를 자주 교체해 주시면 더 더 좋을거 같아요 근데 이미 사용하고 있는 수세미 상태도 나쁘진 않은거 같음
