The location, in The Rocks, cannot be surpassed. It is within easy reach of the ferries, city centre, the Opera House, Botanical Gardens, various galleries and museums and ease of access to public transport that easily connects with the broader public transport system within Sydney.
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly.
The accommodation is not luxurious, however, it is modern, well appointed, clean and well maintained with heating and air conditioning. One must be mindful that this a youth hostel. It was wonderful to be amongst people of all ages.
To add to the historical aspect of The Rocks, there is a substantial archeological dig has been incorporated into the design of the youth hostel.
