    Was there during a cold weather spell so it was pretty cold inside the rooms but other than that the stay was nice. The

    The location was convenient for me for the purpose of my stay. The was what I expected, and in the morning they offered Coffee or Tea. Nothing.

    The staff is incredibly welcoming, helpful and funny. A homey vibe to the backpackers for sure! Room for improvement: The beds are a bit run down and quirky, and the toilet situation work as a hallway to other dormitories which gives a lack of privacy when you’re doing your toilet business. Other than this I think it’s great!

    ✨ - the staff was amazing, super kind and professional and helpful, really great vibes - the room (a private suite) has everything you need - great hostel vibes No negative aspects, maybe my room was in front of the garden and the street, but a good pair of earplugs + white noise did the trick and I slept perfectly

    Had an amazing time there. The location is really good and people always gather around at the bar to have a great time, share experiences and have fun. The staff is also great! Felt like home. Can’t wait to come back!

    Friendly little spot that is very close to good spots in the Green Point neighborhood The bathrooms were kept very clean The bar was a good spot to hang out The private room was a bit small and too close to the bar There was a school group taking up a lot of space but it was only a minor issue

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    I was not comfortable sharing my Dom with males that's the only thing that would make me not to recommend it for someone..But the rest was okay

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    What a wonderful stay! A perfect, no-fuss location to rest and relax. It’s close to the promenade for long, intentional walks and easy downtime at the beach. The establishment is clean, spacious, and most importantly, safe. The staff are incredible, friendly, attentive, and accommodating. The large, well-equipped kitchen with ample seating created a welcoming space for meaningful conversations with staff and other guests. As my stay was short, the staff generously shared groceries, which made short-term meal preparation easy. There’s plenty of cupboard and fridge space, so I know that on my next visit, I’ll be able to do a full grocery shop and store everything comfortably. The lounge area is perfect for reading or watching TV, and the pool is a true delight, especially compared to the small plunge pools at other establishments. The funny and fruitful conversations with staff and guests around the braai and bar area made my stay even more memorable. I’ll definitely be back!

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    Very quaint little house with a pool and tikki bar The dorm stank of dirty bodies Kitchen filthy Not even a teabag to make tea late at nightafter a long day of travelling. The bathrooms were unisex - not advertised Nowhere to put handbag, valuables or luggage I did not stay. I booked elsewhere and left.

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    Proximity to the waterfront Sydney was very rude and disrespectful towards me even though I’d stayed at the property multiple times.

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    Comfortable atmosphere, and nice people

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    Location is great. Easy to find and near a lot of places to eat, shop and see. NA

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Staff was really friendly and helpful. Meet many great travelers here. The 'Bring you Meat'for Braai on Saturdays are a nice way to experience Braai and meet people at the hostel. The location is prime for walking to a grocery store, going for a run, and walking to the mall area. The beds were descent and the bar was nice.
