Good

Moved to another hostel due to water issues

Room had a double bunk and two metal trunks under the bed. Floor looked like a crime scene photo. Unidentified stains etc Bathrooms were clean, staff were at their assigned places and friendly enough.

There’s no soundproofing at all you hear all of the noise. I was in a private room but every time the front door would open I could hear it which meant that my sleep was disrupted quite a lot. The dining services and common areas aren’t that nice either to be honest. I’ve stayed in quite a few hostels globally and this is probably The least exciting one I’ve been in.

Property was ok, clean enough, check in was easy..during night was quite noisy and many people hanging around outside. Over 50 ebikes parked right out the front of the property with lots of people coming & going all night. As a single female traveller didnt feel overly safe.

Location and easy to access

The "Online check-in to avoid wait times" is ineffective, as you still need to visit reception for manual activation of the electronic keys. Reception was unattended from 12:30 to 13:15, leading to nearly an hour of waiting, despite having already completed the check-in online. Additionally, the bed had crawling insects (not bedbugs, but similar), and the fridge still had a frozen cockroach inside, likely from a previous spill.

Didn’t have one good night sleep, doors banging all day/night long, loud people in hallway.

Despite being advertised as “pay at stay” my card was charged the morning of my stay. I then used the online check in that was requested “to save time at check in”. Upon arrival I was informed my payment had “failed” despite clear records showing the money had left my account, I was then charged a 2nd time before I was allowed to use the room I had already paid for. Reception staff were very unwilling to help me with this issue and would not allow me to check in without this 2nd payment. They even argued with me that I had not paid. The app I was requested to download also continually said I was not checked in. I tried to call reception multiple times throughout my stay and not once did anyone answer the phone. The desk is meant to be manned 24/7 and this is not the case for at least an hour there was no one available to not only me but many others trying to check in. I am also still waiting for Expedia to be able to contact the hotel in order for the refund to be paid to me and they are having trouble getting calls or emails answered to rectify this situation. I will never be booking this hotel ever again and will never recommend it due to this shonky practise of billing.

Nice location. Unclean, noisy and very busy.

Charged twice… prior to check in despite it being pay at stay. To be told it failed however money was removed from my account. Had to pay again. Still waiting on refund. No one answered phones all day and staff not available when needed, even though have been told it is a 24/7 manned desk. o line check in also did not work, had to download an app which also did not work.

No anúncio dizia que tonha arrumação de quarto e ninguém apareceu em nenhum dos dias que ficamos ali. Alem disso foi pedido, e eles simplesmente ignoraram meu pedido.

I like staying at this multinational hostel surrounded by happy young people. Thanks to Diana I was able to check in without a passport. Twenty four hour reception!

A comfortable bed, clean bathroom, good hot water! A pleasure to be among young travelers in this hostel-type ‘Village’.

Great staff, easy to check in and out. It’s an older building so wear and tear to be expected. Ensuite room came with toaster, electric jug and mini fridge which was perfect.

Unique, but typical for the area - period mansions and grounds converted to range of accommodation, from shared/hostel rooms to private ensuite rooms. Full shared kitchen facilities available, but it's Glebe Point Road, so you'll run out of days before you run out of options. One cautionary note, if outside of an evening, the possums are so active, you're likely to be showered with tree debris... = )

The staff were wonderful, the room was excellent, the location is awesome; the parking was a breeze - especially for Sydney; and all for an excellent price. We wanted to extend, but unfortunately for us, they were fully booked.

Took away my access to my room a day early not allowing me to stay the last night of my trip, had to stay elsewhere. Still charged me for the night when I raised the issue and went to get my belongings.

Other guest noisy

I had booked an overnight stay for "Bed in Twin Female Ensuite Dorm" as appeared on my trip receipt but instead, I was given a room with two bunk beds that could fit four. And the rest of them are males (with me being the only female) when I asked specifically for a female-only room. Worst, one chap was hitting for me!
