Big Backpackers Hostel

Excellent location close to public transport and main points of interest. Friendly staff. Room was clean and as expected, although there was no window to open or see out of (was frosted and I think facing another building wall) which could feel claustrophobic. Bed was comfy enough for a few nights. Common areas always seemed lively, but couldn't hear the noise from upstairs.

I had a nice time here. Receptionists always kind and helpful. They even organised a dinner buffet for Christmas. I had a double room with bathroom and it was perfect for my needs. No cockroaches. Window can be opened (but not view because of a wall but personally it didn’t annoyed me since there’re other buildings very close and I wanted to have some privacy)

The staff are very helpful, I enjoyed casual conversation so much. The kitchen was clean enough, it was not a party hostel so I could take a rest comfortable.

The staff are beyond helpful and polite. So friendly! I had a problem with the AC in my dorm and I wasn't able to sleep properly and when they told me that this was an issue that would take time to fix, they upgraded my room and it was amazing! 100% would recommend to my friends! Also it is right next to central station so that was a huge plus!

Excellent location within easy walking distance of the central station (train) with a huge amount of cafes, bars and restaurants nearby and only about 15 minutes away from the harbour (public transport; 35 minutes walk) Comfortable room and bed with a good bathroom and shower. Elevator access to all floors. Rooftop bar (during reception hours) Good laundry facilities and a large shared kitchen. Lots of daily activities (walking tours, pub crawls and other social activities) for those who want to participate and make friends. We extended our stay due to our travel plans changing because of the weather. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again if I’m ever back in Sydney.
