Positive: I honestly liked everything about it. The staff was really helpful with everything and very friendly. There was something going on on everyday which I personally really liked. There was free food a few times a week and then also free alcohol and party’s where we also went to different things after, really enjoyed it. The hostel itself is also really nice and cozy, the location is perfect, right next to the train station and you can reach everything you need in a few minutes. It also gets cleaned a few times a day, so no problems with that either. I had a really great stay and would definitely recommend it!
Negative: Everything was good. Nothing bad hat I could say.
Summary: It was the best hostel in Sydney
