AAna_KomarovaNice hotel overall, enjoyed walking around the Rocks.
But it’s very hilly and the Wynyard station is WAY MORE ACCESSIBLE than Circular Quay. Still, had to walk ~10min.
There’s a nice rooftop view and bar. My room was right next to the bar where people talked loudly and played music, but the soundproofing is great, so it didn’t bother me.
My roommates didn’t want to open windows at night and it was impossible to use the AC, so it felt extremely stuffy inside.
I also previously stayed in a Japanese hostel, and I really liked the idea of separating storage and bathroom from a sleeping area there. In this hostel, if neighbours want to find something in their suitcase, it’s very noisy. Doors are noisy too and it’s impossible to close them quietly.
Nice restaurant area, very spacious and there’s also the kitchen where you can cook/store food in a fridge.
The door key can be added to Apple Wallet so it was very convenient.

GGuest UserWas a great stay. Communication is not their strong point. They didn't reply to 6 messages done by phone and through their website. All I wanted was 3 more rooms for one night.
Lady at reception sorted it all out quick smart upon arrival. That was impressive, but the non-communication will always linger.

Ffanfan0718A little distance from the station but quiet and comfortable around. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast looks simple so I didn't try it. The overall evaluation is good.

GGuest UserThe overall stay experience of this hotel is very good. First of all, the hotel is in a prime location, close to major attractions, with convenient transportation and very convenient travel. The front desk service is warm and friendly, and the check-in procedure is quick, which leaves a good first impression.
The room is well-equipped, clean and tidy, and the bed is comfortable, which can ensure good sleep quality. Both the bathroom equipment and the air-conditioning system work well, providing a satisfactory living experience. The hotel's breakfast is rich in variety and delicious, which makes the whole day full of energy.

GGuest UserI was lucky enough to have my room ready in advance, before 2PM and since my flight arrived early in the morning, that was really nice !
Cathy was also a wonderful person in general, throughout my stay.
The room is pretty big, with a sink and a fridge. 👌🏻
The room I had is next to the common area however people weren't too loud, especially in the evening despite it roughly being the dinner time so that was nice.
The area is very chill, a few schools and houses around so not loud at night. It is, however, situated on the planes' route and they are pretty low in the sky since it gets close to the airport. But there aren't any at night (around midnight until 6AM I would say) and it's not every 5 minutes either.
The sun set pretty early at that time of the year and to me, I felt like the neighborhood lacked lights for people to walk around but it wasn't much of a bother and not something the lodge can change, so just a heads-up to have a small light/enough battery on the phone to use when coming back from your day trip activities.

GGuest UserGreat location, very budget building, toilets and showers very basic and outdated but capsule quite pleasant, new and roomy, USB outlet wasn't working to charge phone on capsule so front counter staff gave me a power bank who h was great of them.
Front of house staff usually only around during check in times, bring a towel or they will charge you for one.
You get a free locker of decent size to store your things which is a bonus.
Fantastic China town cbd location with access to trams and buses within 100m.

6.6/10
AAudrey ExplorerGood location. Easy check in/out using goki app. Just touch the button on the app, and the Front door to hostel opened. And another button on app to open the door to the room.
The kitchen, toilet, and eating area are run down, but clean and well kept. The room is small but in good condition.
They tucked in the pillow case and bedsheets for you. And just checked out without removing the sheet. How nice!!
Janitors are always on the go to keep the place clean and tidy.
Some beds have power sockets next to it, but not every bed.
Remote Customer service is very friendly and helpful.
