Sydney Hostellit

Plussat: The location, the terrace, the price, the quietness in the night (really unexpected), the comfort of the bed

Miinukset: Check out time is a little strict. Anything else was really good for the money

Plussat: So close to City and China town

Miinukset: No Tv in the room

Miinukset: It was very upsetting on checking in that although I had given my credit card number I was told that it hadn't been passed on for payment. My friend travelling with me then had to produce her credit card for payment.Although I had a couple of phone conversations with staff this was never pointed out to me. The receptionist was quite rude giving us the impression that we were quite stupid.

Plussat: clean toilet and shower room

Plussat: very convenient to the city and transport

Miinukset: lack of bedside table, small fridge and TV

Plussat: Cetntral location, cheap, many facilities

Miinukset: no

Plussat: The hostel is quite large and has a variety of room accommodations. It was well run with places to store bags on check in and check out. My favorite part about this place was the location. It was near the museum train stop which made getting to other parts of the city a 5 minute train ride or a 20 minute walk. Rooms are clean and comfortable and the heater worked well.

Miinukset: The heater was very strong and I was very dry throughout the night. I recommend a lower bunk in the winter to avoid the dry air from the heater.

Plussat: Good location

Miinukset: 1. Dreadful place, a rundown 2. Downstairs area where you eat & hang out smells of poo/sewage 3. Patronizing & inconsiderate attitude of staff, rude, hostile & intimidating notices everywhere: "Big Brother is watching you - do your dishes, no jokes!" where a polite "Please do your dishes" would do, "If you activate smoke alarm we'll fine you $500 & evict you in the middle of the night" where a simple "No smoking please" would do 4. Overpriced ($90 for a single bedroom, more than in local hotels) 5. Partially empty vending machine, some products expired 6. No guests allowed in rooms 7. Extremely slow Internet connection 8. Very slow elevator 9. Very limited breakfast 10. They will keep your deposit if you don't do the dishes - illegal by law

Plussat: The ensuite room came with clean towels, floor mat and blankets. Other than the squeky bed, everything else was perfect for the price we paid. The location of hostel is excellent, just 5 mins walk to Paddy's market / Chinatown and 2 mins walk to free shuttle bus stops. The hostel has many security cameras installed, making us feel secured.

Miinukset: As mentioned above, our double bed (with a single upper bed) was super squeaky. Any slight movements will create noise.

Plussat: The location is really convenient. Free Wifi is awesome though the speed is a little slow.

Miinukset: I hired a towel, but the cleaner just took it away without asking. (I didn't want to change it every day; One day I came back and found the towel was disappered.)

Plussat: Location & Price

Miinukset: beds were too hard and bunk beds too noisy when anyone moved

Plussat: close to the city, staff is very friendly

Miinukset: the double-room was way too expensive for the quality provided (no closet, very small room)

Plussat: ..just for an overnight before going to the airport, why spend 3 times as much? Walking distance to harbor.

Plussat: hot shower Works! Good pillow, clean towel

Miinukset: it was really noisy, and I could hear neighbors door loudly as if it was our own door. Bed could be a little softer.

Plussat: The location was excellent to explore the city. The staff were friendly and helpful and the rates were very reasonable. All this makes this place ideal for young travelers on a tight budget.

Miinukset: The rooms, toilets and showers could have been a bit cleaner.

Plussat: The location was great. The staff were friendly. I will be there again should need arises. Thanks

Miinukset: Cannot think of any.

Miinukset: Beds are awful. It's hurt to sleep on them.

Miinukset: The room was small, dirty. The entire place was horrible, food on the floor in hall ways, bathrooms were in an awfull state

Plussat: The big dude with the beard on reception was great, really helpful and upbeat

Miinukset: The springs in the mattress dig into your back and wake you up :(

Plussat: Very hard to answer because there was not much to like. I suppose I would say it was centrally located

Miinukset: Everything! First let me say two words, Bed Bugs! Yes that's right, the place has bed bugs. None of the rooms have power points in them so there is extension cords strewn all over the hall ways, which is a definite health and safety issue. The bathrooms were filthy, the kitchen was overcrowded and dirty and if the staff stopped dancing around thinking they are gods gift and turn the music down then they might be able to actually serve customers

Plussat: I liked staff service and attention

Miinukset: Men Bathroom with problems and the bad smell from the kitchen's restaurants.

Plussat: Convenient location

Miinukset: Noisy, drunk, stale, dirty bathrooms half showers not working, cells rather than rooms, staff lacking initiative. A drunk idiot kick-slammed my door open at 5 in the morning because the girl across the floor wouldn't sleep with him. An institution not an hotel. I left before end of my stay even though I had already paid.

Plussat: the option of a private room

Miinukset: having to pay to rent a towel was ridiculous. bathrooms were not very nice. room smelled terrible.

Plussat: It was a fun place to stay, people were great and very local to everything!

Miinukset: Everything was fine, impovements to showers and tolets would be better!
