Visited with 2 young children. Staff were friendly, the place was clean and convenient. Easy walk to circular quay/opera house as well as darling harbour area. Beautiful and fantastic location. The breakfast was simple but there was lots to eat, although no protein options other than yogurt.

Room set up was great. The room temperature was freezing (57 F) and it took 2 days to get the staff to turn up the temperature. A little pricey for a hostel but the place was a safe, clean and had a wonderful rooftop deck with a view.

great location. Great people. Super friendly staff kudos to Oscar at the rooftop bar. I think since it’s a hostel. Best to inform other tenants to ensure that they are not making loud noises late at night. Other than that all is great
