This place is in a great location, the staff are friendly and always available to help. They were happy to extend our stay. The rooms are basic but clean and comfortable and there are loads of bathrooms to shower any time.

The kitchen area is a little too basic but not really too much of a problem

Great price & location! 24 hour front desk. Quiet street but near a busy street. Linen included. You get what you pay for, basically. It's old but it does the trick. Beds weren't uncomfortable & didn't have bed bugs.

We were on the 2nd floor & couldn't lock our window! Didn't bother telling staff so idk how they would have responded. No parking! Didn't bother us bc the place is so cheap but it's REALLY old & basic. $20 deposit for a key. I know that's normal, I was just being cheap & annoyed @ being parted from my $20 for the duration of our stay!

I liked having the room outside in the front... I liked having a fan Tv and fridge and my own water and sink

The Kitchen smelled..I Think you should remove the garbage at nite.. In the morning it was great.. I couldn't sleep 9-10pm because other people from the place were sitting outside talking loudly.. It was very invasive as the area was chained off...hey climbed the chain and still stayed and talked..I Told the guy at the front desk and he said that they weren't there ,,they were (over 8 of them and they stayed for an hour) he should've come out and told them to leave!

The staff at the desk are very friendly and halpful when yu ask for anything. The location is great for Bondi Beach!!

The hostel is generally quite dirty, the cleaning staff make a lot of noise in the morning and as far as I can see dont achieve much. Although it must be difficult as the state many of the guests leave the communal areas in is disgusting. It is expensive internet, you are chraged fror absoloutely everything and given the amount of money this place must take they have not reinvested anything to improve the standard. Overall I wouldn't stay here again even with the great location.

Location. 2 blocks from the beach. The place is owned and managed by a russian family. They are friendly.

The place needs a refurbishment urgently!! Fans don't work. The toilets are small. Small, hot and poor kitchen. You have to hire a kitchen set! Linen dirty, changed only by request.

Checking out!!!!!

The woman in reception was rude and unhelpful. The room was tiny with bars on the window. The beds weren't clean - my friend had a bogey on her pillow on arrival and the top of the wardrobe was covered in dust and rubbish. You'll need to wear thongs in the bathroom cos the floor is gross. All in all a horrendous experience.
