This was the first place we stayed in when reached sydney, booked through a friend. On arrival (quite late) we were greeted by a rude guy who i dont think i could call a receptionist, not friendly or organised enough.

I witnessed intoxicated guests partying in the common area, dancing on... more

Friendly staff, good location, cheap. Dirty, both the dorms and toilets. There were a lot of flies in the dorm, and the rooms were not cleaned. more
