GGuest UserWas a great stay. Communication is not their strong point. They didn't reply to 6 messages done by phone and through their website. All I wanted was 3 more rooms for one night. Lady at reception sorted it all out quick smart upon arrival. That was impressive, but the non-communication will always linger.

럭럭키클로버Bondi Beach is within walking distance. The staff was friendly when I checked in and friendly when I checked out. The room is about the average you would expect from a hostel, and there is a power outlet and a USB charging port, but the direction of the outlet is not good, so it may not work depending on the shape of the electrical outlet. That was me... However, there are two USB A type ports, so although it was not fast charging, I was able to charge my phone without any problems. As with any hostel, the experience of the room depends a lot on the personalities of the people sharing the room. In my case, I stayed in a mixed room for 6 people with 5 people when I checked in and 4 people on the second day, and I stayed with good people without any major inconveniences. The bathroom and shower are separated, and the shower is a bit small, but it was not too inconvenient, and the hot water came out well, which was nice. The hot water did not come out immediately after turning it on, but if it had been a while since I used it, I had to turn it on for about a minute and the hot water came out right away. The bathroom was clean and tidy with a toilet seat, so it was okay. It was a bit difficult for me, who has an extreme MBTI I tendency and is not good at English, but it was fun because it was a chance to talk to foreign friends even a little. I think people who are MBTI E or can speak English well will have a really fun time.

GGuest UserI was lucky enough to have my room ready in advance, before 2PM and since my flight arrived early in the morning, that was really nice ! Cathy was also a wonderful person in general, throughout my stay. The room is pretty big, with a sink and a fridge. 👌🏻 The room I had is next to the common area however people weren't too loud, especially in the evening despite it roughly being the dinner time so that was nice. The area is very chill, a few schools and houses around so not loud at night. It is, however, situated on the planes' route and they are pretty low in the sky since it gets close to the airport. But there aren't any at night (around midnight until 6AM I would say) and it's not every 5 minutes either. The sun set pretty early at that time of the year and to me, I felt like the neighborhood lacked lights for people to walk around but it wasn't much of a bother and not something the lodge can change, so just a heads-up to have a small light/enough battery on the phone to use when coming back from your day trip activities.

GGuest UserFor a hostel, the cleanliness and facilities weren't bad. However, as it's still a hostel, it's best not to have sky-high expectations. The most surprising part was the complimentary breakfast and dinner. Considering this, it's arguably the best value-for-money hostel in Sydney.

GGuest UserGreat location, very budget building, toilets and showers very basic and outdated but capsule quite pleasant, new and roomy, USB outlet wasn't working to charge phone on capsule so front counter staff gave me a power bank who h was great of them. Front of house staff usually only around during check in times, bring a towel or they will charge you for one. You get a free locker of decent size to store your things which is a bonus. Fantastic China town cbd location with access to trams and buses within 100m.

AAudrey ExplorerGood location. Easy check in/out using goki app. Just touch the button on the app, and the Front door to hostel opened. And another button on app to open the door to the room. The kitchen, toilet, and eating area are run down, but clean and well kept. The room is small but in good condition. They tucked in the pillow case and bedsheets for you. And just checked out without removing the sheet. How nice!! Janitors are always on the go to keep the place clean and tidy. Some beds have power sockets next to it, but not every bed. Remote Customer service is very friendly and helpful.
