    I had a great stay at a centrally-located hostel in Sydney. The convenience of having Townhall station next door and being able to walk to Darling Harbour and Circular Quay was a huge plus. The hostel itself was clean, the staff were helpful, and the atmosphere was lively, perfect for meeting other travelers. I highly recommend this place!

    As we wanted to be in the heart of Sydney we chose a casual place where we could still feel young again!! I have travelled back packing accomodation with YHA when I was younger and always loved the feel of these places so wanted my hubby to experience it. Liked the fact that we could just walk out the door and we were in proximity to everything but for the cost we paid for the room I would rather have booked a hotel room afor a little extra.

    Our room was very bright due to the lighting in the street outside and we didnt have very good night sleeps. The thumping noise through the walls from the nightclub next door was difficult to adjust to when you are in bed trying to sleep, particularly after midnight.

    The staff were friendly and helpful.The hotel's location is close to Darling Harbour and reasonably close to the Sydney Entertainment Centre

    A glass/cup for water near the bed would have been good.

    I was actually surprised by the cleanliness of the female dorm at Nomads. The beds were comfortable and well-maintained, providing a good night's sleep. The kitchen/dining area was a great space to meet and socialize with fellow travelers. The location of the hostel was perfect, with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. I had a great stay at Nomads and would recommend it to others.

    Only for the cheap cost. The back packers is very noisy and the young people drink a lot. not enough respect for those who sleep

    The location of this hotel is amazing, with easy access to the airport and the metro station just a short walk away. It's also centrally located, making it convenient to explore attractions like the harbour bridge and opera house. The staff at this hotel were friendly and provided good service, even going above and beyond by offering an upgrade to a room with curtains. Despite some negative reviews, I found the rooms to be comfortable and clean. Considering the value for money, it was definitely a good deal.

    My stay at this hotel was satisfactory and I didn't encounter any major issues.

    Location and prices

    There were a couple of drunk young boys who disturbed me greatly. And the security acted too softly to them, actually not punishing them for vomitting on the floor in the room.

    Great location and comfortable beds! It was easy to get around and explore the city. the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the free breakfast was a nice touch.

    The rooms were quite small and lacked adequate storage space for our belongings. the noise level from other guests and outside traffic made it difficult to sleep.

    If you want to meet new people from everywhere that want to have fun jus like you, this is the place. Not to mention lots of clubs near by, one which is next door. Not far from darling harbor for shopping, or george street, paddys market, circular key....its jus pretty close to everything. If you are gunna stay around christmas time book ahead, because it fills up quick, and u could be left homeless!!! The showers are good, and I liked the beds. But its always about the people party and location!!!

    If I have to say I didnt like something is that the carpets only get vacumed not washed, but hey its a cheap and fun hostel, still worth your trip!
