Clean, friendly and good value for money. Perfect location for exploring the city Met lots of like minded people who were also travelling around Australia I had a mixed dorm and made lots of friends who I went on to travel with.

Friendly staff, clean room...not so clean bathroom? Actually, not the cleaners fault, some chick decided to take a dump on the shower floor... Location was alright, few minutes walk to haymarket area. The airconditioner doesn't seem to be functioning? Went down to reception twice and both times they replied that they'll come up and have a look but nothing. Night... More

Stayed here in a 4 bed dorm and it was nice. Nothing spectacular, just standard dorm with clean common spaces. Very centrally located. Bar in the basement has amazing happy hour deals, although if you're over 25 years old, you'd need to be pretty drunk to stay there in middle of the 19-20 year old crowd. But that is what... More

Nice, clean friendly, hostel. Very central to all local attractions. Expensive WiFi, was only thing that put me off. Not to noisey. I stayed in a 4 dorm and had a blast. There is a bar right next door, that gets rowdy, but overall it's a great stay for your first time in Sydney.

Staff are friendly. The... More

I stayed here for 3 nights. Good location, near to the Paddy's Market and just cross the street to the Central Station that make you easier if you need to catch a train to the airport. Public transportation such as bus and taxi was easy to get from the hotel. You also can find lots of restaurant around the hostel.... More

I stayed in Wake Up for just over a week, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful! I stayed in a 10 bed mixed dorm and it was huge! The beds were comfy and there was lockers in the room for you to put your belongings. There was a shared bathroom and toilets on my level, the 2nd level,... More

I had a last minute booking here for a private room when my hotel reservation didn't pan out and wasn't disappointed. Being a hostel, it does have basic amenities - don't expect 5 star luxury but they were good enough for the stay given that you'll mostly be out of your room doing touristy things anyway. Check in was a... More
