We stayed at Eva's for a week. The bed was comfy, the double room was spacious, the bathrooms were spotless and the kitchen and dining areas had plenty of room for everyone to cook, eat and store their food. Eva's website looks nice and works well, but there are several things the website does not mention: 1. The kitchen, while... more

Stayed there for 3 days in januari 2009 and didn't like it very much, it's too expensive for what you get, a night in the formula 1 one hotel costs about just as much if you want the room for yourself, and you get alot more comfort. there's no airco anywhere, the surrounding are ok, Kings Cross is not that... more

I was worried about where to stay in Kings Cross as the reviews can be sketchy. Eva's is perfect, cosy, caring, out of trouble in a better part of Kings Cross (although it all seemed ok to me!). Everything in walking distance with a great cafe on the corner (a little expensive for travellers though!) and more importantly a subway... more

Where to start...? To say our room was as big as Harry Potters cupboard would be being generous. We stayed at Evas for one week in March and really did not enjoy our stay. After being overly disappointed with the size of the room and the fact there was no linen to actually make the bed with, we decided to... more

Recently spent a week there. Small room but with enough storage space. Comfortable bed. Poor lighting. Many sparkling clean bathrooms. 3 washing machines and dryers on the rooftop. No elevators. Quiet inside, but every night people stood around on the street and smoked and talked -- loudly. The location is fantastic. The staff is very helpful. The price is right.... more

Eva's is just what you expect from a backpackers hostel: it is within the backpackers area of sydney where all other hostels are located. it has rather basic rooms and shared bathrooms. It is well looked after by staff, so that it is not overly noisy or dirty and it overall is a good place to stay, especially when you... more

Not a bad place and/or location although sort of sketchy area at night. Great rooftop patio with view of Sydney but nearly froze to death at night and the street was also loud. more

Quite simply the best place to stay in Sydney. Good location in Kings Cross away from the madness of the red light district and also away from the high prices of the centre of Sydney. A short walk into central Sydney (about 20min) the place was a joy to stay in. Stayed in a double room, very clean and the... more

I stayed here for almost 2 weeks and Eva's is definitely one of the best in Sydney. Nice clean rooms, some of the dorms have an en suite, great location, great staff. The kitchen is a little crowded and the tv area is tiny. However there is an amazing patio on the roof, free breakfast as well as internet/wi-fi so... more
