Liked: One of the best hostel's I have stayed in in Australia. It was quite at night which meant you actually got to sleep and the a/c worked perfectly in the dorms. The free breakfast was great with as much toast and cereal as you wanted, as was the free wifi. Chilled out atmosphere and a big range of people staying here from older to young travellers and even families. Great TV and kitchen area too. I would definately stay here again when I came back to Sydney. Only downside is the bathrooms could have been a little bit cleaner.

Liked: ok hostel with kitchen and free wifi available - the latter in the lobby only, unfortunately, which gets crammed and noisy with the tv screaming all the time - not comfortable, neither cosy. nice roof with bbq, shame it's so dirty, with rubbish, cockroaches and drying old clothes hanging there, which puts you off staying up there long... beds ok as in clean, but not comfortable - give you neck ache after a couple of nights. to sum it up, it's ok, but far from wonderful.

Liked: Very clean and the free breakfast is good - all you can eat cereal (4choices) and toast. Not a 'party' hostel though, lots of workers and long timers, also a few families with children when we were there so its hard to meet people as its cliquey. The hostel doesn't organise things on a night neither so you have to find your own entertainment but all in all its such a clean and nice hostel with big size rooms that maybe that can be overlooked.

Liked: I stayed in the 8 share rooms, it was mess especially some people who are long stay. They put their stuff everywhere and you barely have place to put your bag, and I don't feel the housekeeper really clean the room everyday. The shower rooms and toiliet are really tiny, and dirty. Only 2 sinks in a floor with a small mirror... I will nerver choose to stay again..

Liked: Feels like a home away from home, I really enjoyed my time here and would stay again. Free internet/wifi and the best free breakfast you'll find in any hostel. The 11am check out is great (10am in most hostels) and when I was checking in at about 10 am I didn't even have to wait for my room to be ready either. The staff are great too and very helpful.
Disliked: Benjamin left no negative feedback.
