This hostel really could be so great, fantastic location, the building interior has character but I am sad to say it is up in my top 2 dirtiest places I have ever stayed in all the countries I have been too. I booked a 4 bed dorm, which could only be accessed through a large 8 bed dorm kind of... More

And no lockers in the rooms, bit worrying would reccomend but it is a bit steep in... More

This was my first hostel I'd ever stayed in and really out me off. There were too many beds in the rooms and had to get taken down if the officials came around to check. We booked a package which included bus passes, zoo tickets, hop on hop off harbour tickets and Sydney skytower tickets. When we got there none... More
