21 July 2010

Liked: great location, toilets and showers were clean.

Disliked: The mattress was old, rough and uneven, very noisy, lots of street noise from the lane way below and noise from other guests, sounded like some one was banging on the fire escape all the time and kicking the bins around outside. There was a loud heating/cooling unit across the lane way which ran all day till about 12:30 at night. So I would recommend ear plugs.

BRITTANY FERGUSON-BROWN

14 May 2010 BRITTANY would recommend this property

Liked: I stayed in a double room. It was basic, but clean. All i was after was a bed, and thats what i got. A bonus is the free breakfast. The bathrooms were basic, sometimes a bit messy. I'd recommend rethinking your stay if its on a friday night. It was noisy, people running around til 3am, people lingering in the halls.

Liked: Great hostel, great fun throughout my stay! Only booked for one night but extended for a week, and will definitely come back when returning to Sydney! Staff are great, they know how to party and make you feel welcome! Also excellent value for money, thanks to the location and all the free things on offer. They just started free city tours during the day, great opportunity to meet friends and great activities at night to keep everyone entertained! Definitely definitely recommend to everyone!

Liked: The location was great. We met some great people. At 645AM this morning I had gone to check out and organise my airport shuttle, The staff member had blasted the music and I was surprised he could even hear me. The showers stunk like urine. I reccomend if you are a female and decide to go a shared dorm, DONT! Stick with your own sex dorms! Overall rating 6/10. I was happy with the smiley greeting we recieved and helpful advise.

Liked: Maze have really got some un-called-for reviews. The place is awesome with great staff, location and so on. We paid &50AUD for a double, you won't find another hostel in Sydney that offers that price. Maze is really great.
