Nomads Sydney - Hostel

Q

My 3 nights stay was 1 bedroom suite with bathroom. Because of the noise from the bar, I could sleep after 2am. The next day morning, I requested room change. FD offered me a room after 3pm. I found out water was leakng from AC. Since hotel was full house, I told FD that I would try to stay. Due to the smell from the carpet, I requested a new room at 5PM. She told me Maint would be there later and tried to fix for me. After I came back from dinner, no maint was there, I asked FD more towels to suck water out from the carpet. FD went up to check the room and confirmed the problem. I paid for the suite, so I didn't want a bunk bed with someone. Therefore, I stayed the same room. 9:30PM, construction was outside my room. I couldn't sleep, so I showed the FD the video at 10:30PM. Smell from the carpet, construction noise, and humidity, I moved to a new room with bunk bed at 11PM. I slept few hours. 4:30AM, I left the room and went back to the old room. Because of my tour at 6:45AM, I left hotel before 6AM. I told the FD the problem, and asked to text/email to me if any update. I was back around 7PM. FD told me they fixed the water leaking, but HK did not clean the room. 9PM the construction started again on my third night. I was tired and fell to sleep after shower. I understood that you had full house, but HK or maint should check the room before you sold it the guest. If the maint fixed the problem, HK didn't fresh up the rm

Nice room but was many party animal there

Friendly staff

Good location. 2 mins walk to light rail or train station. Dislike, i went back my room from lift, just like walking in a maze

It's a great place for what you get. Central to lots, certainly in the thick of things, but the rooms fronting the street - bring your ear plugs.

Absolutely dirty,unsafe,nothing work at room,outdated equipment,big staff trying to have sex with guest,absolutely disgusting,worse hotel in Sydney,period

Rented double bed with ensuite. Cons: no refrigerator (Expedia advertised it), only shared kitchen (with presumably a refrigerator, I didn't check). Aircon works great but makes clicking sound when using low fan speed, ok on medium - not a problem for me. Indifferent: Some stairs to get up then back down to the room but ok for me. Pros: good location - close Woolworths and town hall train station / light rail, internet wifi was good, app to open doors was good (slight delay to open door but it's ok to me), good price, staff were great. Other hostel users were super friendly. Lots of activities advertised. Good noise isolation. Notes: I didn't try the food / breakfast options.

I loved my stay! Amazing location, close to food, the train and downtown. I would highly recommend it to others :)

Everything was excellent

Unusually onerous check-in procedure

Good

The room was very difficult to get to with luggage. Had to take an elevator to the 2nd floor and then moved through other buildings and down15 stairs to get to room. Not convenient to get in and out.

I chose it for its price and location. Couldn’t have been better for that. Maintenance and cleaning issues that are easy to fix such as handle off shower and remote not working, shower needs a scrub not just a wipe. Do that and couldn’t fault it. My room was located next to traffic lights so Billy Eileish

Too noisy from the cars outside

"Unprofessional and Inconsistent Policy Enforcement – A Disappointing Experience" I am extremely disappointed with how this hostel enforces its policies, especially regarding alcohol. During my three-week stay, I saw multiple guests, including staff, drinking openly in the common areas with no intervention. This created confusion about the actual rules. However, when I had six cans of beer delivered, the receptionist suddenly informed me they would be confiscated due to an alleged alcohol ban. He told me I could pick them up later, but only if I consumed them outside. This rule was applied selectively and unfairly. When I questioned the decision, I was given unprofessional responses. The receptionist claimed not to have seen others drinking, even though he had been present when I observed it. Another staff member gave the same vague response, further highlighting the inconsistency in enforcing the rules. This experience showed a lack of professionalism, transparency, and fairness. If rules are to be enforced, they should be applied consistently to all guests. I respect the hostel’s policies, but the way this situation was handled left me frustrated and disappointed. I hope the management improves communication and consistency in the future.

Friendly staff and guests. Good facilities for the price.

noise was crazy i couldn't sleep the whole time i was there. yes super loud!! from 9 or 10 til 3am

Staff were friendly and efficient. There was an ability of every body to do their best for you
