It' s a good way to have fun. Very loose atmosphere. Isn' t expensive so you can still go anywhere you want. But as far as I know friendly cohabitants and good for action

This place is a great starting place if you're moving to Sydney for a relatively long-term period of time; there's loads of backpackers here who are on working holiday visa's or similar things, and it has an amazing social vibe. It feels a lot like sharing a house with a lot of people, rather than a hostel. Everyone's very friendly and there's lots of drinking every night (do NOT stay here if you want a good night's sleep). The rooms are basic dorms and the cleanliness of the kitchen/bathrooms is not a particularly high standard, but personally the social atmostphere more than made up for this. A great, fun, family-feel place to stay.

its a kinda cool place. more a long term stay place, good family feel, which can mean its a bit to relaxed in some ways. I'm enjoying it and would recommend you to stay. and at the price you have no reason to complain. just don't arrive expecting the hilton and you'll be a happy camper

if you're after a party this is the place for you, between 9am and 4 am Friday to Sunday is party central, if you want sleep or a quite life, ask for a room as far away from the stereo as possible, defiantly not room 17!! Its a lot like a uni house share, with a cool relaxed TV room two kitchens and free sausage butties on Sunday. Its a bit of a hike to town, but there are buses, they cost $3.20 each way so but a ten stop card to make life cheaper.

Free wifi internet, that's a huge plus! And while not in the city centre of Sydney, the location is quite good. In Darling St there are many affordable restaurants, a book shop and a supermarket. Swimming pools are near, as is a nice park. City centre is six minutes with lots of buses to choose from.
