25 November 2009	Teresa McClure cheap dorms, friendly staff, rooftop is a good place to meet people although floor gets very sticky from spilt goon!! free bbq on saturdays is good. kitchen is quite small for size of hostel.	77%

23 November 2009	Customer review Whilst in an easily accessible location and fairly cheap, everything else was horrendous, the dorm looked like a bomb had hit it, the shower was disgusting, and the tiny kitchen had hardly any cooking equipment, was disgustingly dirty, and the lift constantly stank. Drunk people came in and out of the dorms until about 4am, making sleep impossible. Don't stay here unless you have no other choice!	40%

20 November 2009	Customer review The showers in the bedrooms.	32%

18 November 2009	Customer review + Location + Ensuite bathroom + Safety was good + All in all reasonable value for money - Not clean, the common rooms on the 1st floor were especially dirty - The elevator didn't function properly - The staff were rude, snappy and arrogant to custumors at the desk, and some even couldn't speak decent English (in contrast to what it says on the Hostelbookers description, this hostel is not Australian operated)	67%

11 November 2009	Customer review You could have a lot of fun on the rooftop.	60%

03 November 2009	David Grennan Myself and my girlfriend had a 3 night stay at Dlux, we had a private double room, and the en-suite with shower was pretty handy!! Very noisy on the Saturday night. Location is pretty good, a scenic 45 min walk to Circular Quay. A bad point was staff walking into the room, knocking after they had already opened the door!! All in all value for money though	57%

07 September 2009	Matthew Johnson Pretty cheap but also one of the dirtiest hostels I've been to (stayed at 30+ in my life). Floors are filthy and lots of past guests' personal items remain in the rooms. On the plus side the location is good for King's Cross (on a main road) and safety/security were never really an issue. Although King's Cross is the "red light district," if you can deal with the occasional random person asking "want a girl?" you will be fine. One thing to consider is that getting to the central business district/opera house/botanical gardens/anywhere else on the subway ALWAYS requires a transfer. Look at a subway map and see King's Cross station in relation to Circular Quay, the station I ended up going to most often. Staying outside of Kings Cross will be more convenient for sightseeing but also more expensive and not as many options for nightlife in other parts of the city. No free wifi although most hostels in the area also do not have it. McDonald's down the street has free wifi but lots of people use it and the connection is not very good.	57%

24 June 2009	Linda McKeown Cheap as chips if you book with hostelbookers a lot more expensive if you book directly with the hostel...	95%

16 June 2009	Kevin Triggle Cheap and chearful, just be aware you will have people in and out your room all day long 'housekeeping' with each person doing a slightly different and equally pointless task.	72%

03 June 2009	Customer review Simply that it was close to work and you could get a free drink every night if you wanted to.	37%
