With such affordable price and great service, this is a go-to hostel for everyone that want a quiet and cozy night as the rule of The Pod is very clear, you cannot be noisy and no alcohol is allowed. The service was excellent and the location is really strategic, World Square right across the street, Paddy's is just 300 meters away, QVB is also close, Museum station is just 5 minutes walk, clearly close to Hyde Park and a 10 minutes walk and you are already in Darling Harbour. The bathroom was very clean. I definitely will stay in The Pod again if I come back to Sydney

Excellent stay again (this was my second time)The location is perfect, a 5 min walk from Central train and bus station. The bed is huge and really comfy, everyone is so quiet. Everywhere is spotlessly clean. The kitchen and showers are excellent and all the staff are just lovely. Highly recommended.

A wonderful place to sleep. It was so quiet, the bed was comfy and I had undisturbed sleep every night. Everywhere is spotless and the kitchen area has all you need. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Also a great central location, good for public transport. Highly recommend.

In this backpacker hotel, I stayed for 5 days. It is very close to the city, and just opposite Coles shopping to buy some food for my dinner and breakfast at the backpacker hotel. Put it in the fridge with name label stickers. All very safe and very friendly staff. A very nice manager who looks after tourists stay. I give it a 5-star rating. In bed in your room with the wall light on and turn off the ceiling light in each room at 9.30pm. I enjoyed it and will come back again in future from Brisbane QLD Happy New Year to tourists. Take care on the trip.

Hands down the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. The staff was super friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The bed (bunk in shared dormitory) was quite big, comfortable, had an individual light, charging ports and a curtain for privacy. The rooms, the washroom and the kitchen were cleaned every day and the noise was kept to a minimum always. Very happy with my stay and will be back if in Sydney again. It was also well situated. Easy to get to from the airport via train, to the beaches via bus and a walkable distance to the Opera House.
