Cockroaches everywhere but otherwise clean and modern good for a nights stay, fairly quiet and hassle free place in central location. Only 700m from the night life and entertainment on the main street in Enmore.

I had to book a place last minute and my only real requirement was that it was close to the airport. I wasn't sure when I'd get the chance to check in but it was looking like it'd be later in the evening. The manager was very accommodating and tried to make it as easy for me as possible, even making sure I had the closest room to the reception in case I had to find my way around late at night. It turned out that I made it there during office hours anyway and found the staff to be cheerful and helpful. The 6-person dorms were very basic (you get what you pay for) but the amenities were clean and the common areas were nice and comfortable. It's also very close to the train station and only one stop away from Newtown for those looking to explore the city. I'd recommend it for anyone travelling light and cheap.

I have booked this Guest House because the terms and conditions clearly showed the payment will be due on arrival. As I`m from UK and have international card I did not want to be charged with the transaction fee. On arrival when I wanted to pay with cash for the room I was told my card has been charged already, because in case of 7.30pm arrival everyone has to be charged. Well I arrived at 4pm. I was charged at 2pm as the receptionist told me, he wanted the finish in time on that day. He said I should have been put the time of my arrival when I have done the booking.
Firstly I have booked all of my accommodations for my two weeks Australian trip on one way so I know some of the bookings asking you to provide arrival time, this one was not asking. Secondly let`s say I missed that question it should not been there a line about `please provide us arrival time otherwise after 7.30pm you will be charged automatically`?

On the top of it I need to say I have might been a bit upset and started to not agree with the receptionist on this booking process. But he went mad and started to threaten me like he will log in to booking.com and cancel my reservation if we won`t finish the conversation and then I can go to Sydney in the middle of the night and look for other accommodation or go under the bridge to sleep.

So my opinion is if you want to sleep and have shower in the evening the place is fine.
Otherwise watch out the terms and conditions of booking and the biter receptionist.

Nice small quiet hostel. It's really well run, very hands on by the manager who's always around if you need anything. Book in for a week to get a discount. Free breakfast, cereals, toast, tea and coffee. Lots of cooking equipment available for free if you need it. I've stayed in a 3 bed dorm which is $35 per person per night, and I've stayed in a private room which is $90 per night. Rooms have flat screen TVs, fans and sink. Private rooms also have a fridge. Very clean bathrooms, decent hot showers. Close to the train station, bit of a walk to the bus stop if u wanted to go bondi or coogee. Closest supermarket is IGA. would definitely recommend staying here.
