Liked: Free Wi-Fi (even though a bit buggy, but ethernet in rooms was fine). Fridge, sink, TV in every room. It's not located in Sydney's heart but therefore it's quiet around here and you feel safe! Keith, the manager, is a great guy just like all the travellers here were.

Disliked: Only con: You had to leave the kitchen and eating area at 10:30pm. That makes pleasant sleep but it's less cool to hang around.

Liked: We originally booked to stay for 2 weeks but ended up staying for 3. Keith, the owner, is very friendly & welcoming & helped us a lot with where to go & what to see & really made us feel at home. The hostel was cleaned everyday & the free breakfast was good. The hostel is literally 5 minutes walk from the trains to the city, a few local shops & a pub. It's in a lovely quiet part of town & is a good base for exporing sydney.We had a great stay & felt quite sad when we had to leave.

Disliked: Lisa left no negative feedback.
