The location is great, and easy to find. Walking distance to the botanic gardens and Opera House, and easy enough to take an Uber to Bondi. The room was great, and the shared bathrooms were cleaned I think once a day by staff. Other guests who were there at the same time made a real mess of them though, with urine on the floor and clumps of hair in the shower and water everywhere. They were also very loud at night with music and talking. The walls aren’t soundproof and the bed in my room backed onto the wall shared with the hallway so I wasn’t able to sleep until the other guests decided to call it a night. Reception isn’t staffed after 7pm and I didn’t feel safe saying anything to the other guests myself. Great place to stay if other guests are considerate - in my case unfortunately they weren’t and it ruined my stay. Definitely more nice hostel rather than ‘hotel’
