1 min walk from Central Station. You can walk from Sydney Central Inn you can walk up to The Rock, passed the Hyde park, Australia Museum, St. Mary's Cathedral, Art Gallery of New South Wales, The Royal Botanical Garden, Sydney Opera House. Room is average (no aircon). Towels are provided with bath shower gel and conditioner. Common toilets are always tidy (I tried both floors). With regular kitchen equipment for travelers needs. No lift (but it's okay). Friendly, even Thailander staff can speak in english.

It was so cheap, staffs were kind and quite clean(except shower room). There is no elevator so if you have a big suit case you would be hard to bring it up to the floors(coz of narrow stairs). Anyways the only problem was noise. I guess there is a pub nearby accommodation, I had to hear big noisy music which was so annoying between 12am to 1:30am.

cheap price. walking distance to train stations, staff is very friendly. free shampoo, body wash, towel provided. and toilet and kitchenette is clean. On the other hand, there seems to be some smell of smoke-remnants in the room/blanket. at midnight, there was loud music perhaps from a nearby bar. roommates chatting at 1am. then snoring. :( easy checkout (just drop the door keys). i understand there are things beyond staff’s control. and i will probably consider all-female-dorm-bed next time, for peace of mind.

Not for Oldies”

Great location - is close to everything like train stations, shops and restaurant. There are no elevators so if your are located in the 3rd floor and with heavy luggage - the staff will still help you if the guys are on shift but if it is the girl, good luck carrying all your luggage's downstairs. Not sure about other rooms, but our doesn't have a/c - though it's okay since its winter when we went but you should check with them if you're going in the summer.

Recently stayed here and on arrival I was greeted by a nice young man who was polite & friendly. Location was perfect, close to Central Station, World Square and within walking distance to Darling Harbour, China Town, Paddy’s Market etc. My luggage was quite heavy and the only downfall was there is no lift but on saying such, the young man instantly offered assistance to help me carry my luggage upstairs which was a welcomed offer. I stayed in a 4 room dorm which was fine & very reasonably priced. I would stay there again 🙂
