The hotel was of good quality but nothing special stood out for me. Overall, I think I was much more than looking to go out and visit then returning to the hotel. I gave the rating very good because the staff were friendly!

Good: - Location, opposite train station which is 10-15min from the airport ($16) - Great kitchen, good size lounge room - swimming pool (tiny but still) - sauna Bad - I stayed in 4 bed dorm for 5 nights and there were more than 4 people staying in the room every night. One night I came and the guy was... More

Location is good. 5-10 mins walk away from Chinatown and Paddy's Market. But other than that, I wouldn't recommend. Even though the entrance of the building is secured at night and you'll need access card to enter, outsiders not staying in the property still managed to enter at night. There's a bar at the corner of the building in the... More

Location of the YHA Sydney Central is good, closely located to the Central Railwaystation it is easy to get around the city. Furthermore it is on walking distance from Paddy's Market, Chinatown and Darling Harbour. Busses drive to Town Hall & Cirqular Quay. So in terms of getting around a decent place to be at. The bar named Scubar located... More

This hostel is awesome. It has a swimming pool, sauna, movie theatre, and attached cafe. The cafe serves cheap and delicious meals and the rooftop terrace is open until late. Our room was a private ensuite with double bed and bathroom. The room was great, and there is a lift. The only problem was the underground bar on a Friday... More

We have been here now for eight days and have found it to be a friendly, helpful, and most convenient venue.

This hostel is clean, well equipped and safe with the key card entry system for the rooms and a huge locker in each room to lock your stuff away with your own padlock. When I came here first (Oct 2012) there was a bit of a problem with the key card sometimes not working which was very annoying if you... More
