I really did not like this place ! It was really disgusting ! There are lots of cocroaches there. It was impossible for me to sleep. I booked two nights in this hostel, and believe me guys, I really regretted it. I saw a cocroache walked on my bed, and only God knows how much I am scared of them. Bathrooms are also full of cocroaches. There are everywhere. But the thing is it is the only hostel in Kings Cross which have a huge problem with cocroaches. I also were in Nate's Backpacker or Kings Cross Backpacker. I probably saw one cocroache in one week. But there, it is full. This is not a joke. I was in room 10, and plus cocroaches, it was really hot and humid. I got sick. Listen to me, and don't go there guys !!! Oh, and I forgot to say that there are also spiders and webs' spiders from the ceiling. Plus, when you finished your check-out, you have to leave the hostel. Everywhere I went until now, I perfectly remember, we can leave our lugagges there, and stay as long as we want. But it was not the case there. So, an advice guys, don't go there !

DO NOT STAY HERE! Really bad hostel! I would not recommend a stay here at all. It is all very dirty and a very old house. They will just give out sheets, no blankes. An there are cockroaches all over the place: In the rooms, in the bathroom, in the kitchen. The rooms are way to small for the amount of people who are booked in one room and the air is terrible, cause there are just windows to the inner yard of the hostel. For the same amount of money you can book great hostels just a few blocks away that also include way better breakfast (Mad Monkey). This hostel is definitely not worth its money at all. Would not recommend to stay at this hostel!

Pretty good hostel. A bit strict but that made for a nice stay. Not too noisy lots of fun.

Amazing hostel, super clean and safe! Owners actually care about the place, they are strict but it’s worth it! I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels and this is genuinely one of the cleanest and best. Free breakfast, living room with big TV and free wifi. I met some amazing people here and made some unforgettable memories! As for people saying there are lots of cockroaches, it’s Sydney! It’s hot there are cockroaches everywhere. The owners are extremely quick to address any issues with bed bugs as they are inevitably considering so many people arrive at a hostel from all around the world. Every hostel has its challenges but the owners here actually care and will address and issue quickly once addressed.

Horrible horrible horrible. I hated it here. It's really dirty and smelly and has cockroaches. The Wi-Fi was rubbish and the security was non existent at night. Avoid!
