      Acceptable”

      Pros: - No smoking inside / outside property - Lockers are available Cons: - This place smells - Was sleeping at bottom bed when a huge cockroach fell on my bed - You have to pull your own sheets - Only 2-3 fans are in my room, no air-conditioning. I have stayed at The Pod days prior. I don’t see why you shouldn’t pay that measly extra dollar for a 100% difference in experience & quality.

      cleanliness and location aren't good”

      the staff only clean the bathroom and shower room each days and for the other part of room, basically no cleaning. There are quite a lot of rubbish on the floor. I see some rubbish under my bed from previous lodger, and the locker are fulled with dust and rubbish and bad smelling. I guess they only care about the public area, which isn't good. it is far away from City by walking, taking around half hour. City are where most of sightings are. It is close if you take trains. If you want to go to bar or party, you can choose to stay here, there are quite lots of bar nearby, and very noisy at night time.

      Was a bit dissapointed with the place. Probably one of my least favourite hostels I’ve stayed in.”

      Locked when I came late at night, had to phone the property which isn’t ideal if you don’t have a local sim. Had to pay a late fee which I was not aware of. Toilets not very clean. Did not get much help in how to get to the airport early in the morning. If it was cheaper there would be less complaints.

      Thank you for taking time to write this review. We are sorry to hear we didn't fully meet your expectations, but we appreciate you staying with us during your hard earned vacation. Reception normally closes at 20:30pm but we are more than happy to keep reception open for late arrivals if we are alerted in advance, unfortunately we were not informed that you would be arriving at midnight. Although the stay wasn't everything you had wished for, we hope that you were able to take home many fond memories of your time in Sydney. All the best, Effie + Sasha, Blue Parrot Owners

      Not worth the price, don't be fooled by good reviews”

      Very dated interior, bathrooms have tiny sinks and water splatters everywhere. Communal areas are not clean. Very bad WiFi service. For short stays I would avoid, there are better places. Good location, relatively short walking distance to CBD, good choice of cafes near by. Many long term dwellers, so maybe there is a set community?
