"The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. When they found out I was travelling with my child, they kindly upgraded our room! My child absolutely loved the bunk bed, and we had a very comfortable stay.
The location was also excellent — in a quiet residential neighbourhood, just about a five-minute walk from the train station. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this place!"

"It’s ok considering what jt is a hotel. It’s very homely and friendly guests friendly staff. I love how it’s close to Broadway shopping centre 25 mins walk plus there’s lots of walking paths nearby. The kitchen amenities are great fully equipped kitchen and rules posted everywhere about cleanliness. I’m just amazed at how our food in our individual boxes in cupboards and pantry are safe always. And there’s a coffee machine 24 hours. Just a simple friendly hostel. Thank you"

The place has a great location, lots to do in the area for sure! The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and even the four bed dorm was brand new and very clean. No regrets!

So easy to travel in from the airport on the train to Central Station, and walk 5mins to The Pod. Then it's a stroll to lot of great food choices around Chinatown. Opposite World Square with lots of shops including a Coles supermarket, and Town Hall Station. 2 stops and you're at Circular Quay and walking around The Rocks and the Opera House. The hotel was super clean, quiet and with friendly helpful staff. I will stay here again and recommend to all my friends visiting Sydney.

The Little Drifter was a really nice place to stay with friendly staff and guests. The hostel is nice and close to Bondi Beach as well as plenty of shops and places to explore.

This is where the cool old people go as well as the backpackers. Seriously. It's cheap, has a fun vibe and you have access to great kitchens to do your own food.

Wasn't expecting too much for the price I paid.
WOW - exceeded my expectations.
Double with ensuite was clean an quiet.
Excellent staff, location, airco, plenty of hot water and comfy bed. The communal kitchen is well kitted out and keep clean and tidy.
The rooftop terrace is cool - even has a Sydney tower view.
Luggage storage for a few hours after checkout - much appreciated
Minor beef - no fridge in ensuite rooms - had to go down 2 floors to a communal fridge.

Breakfast really exceeded my expectations, lots of choice and great quality, definitely the best breakfast I've had in a hostel. Hostel is very modern and clean, with nice events: I especially loved the Friday $5 lasagna night. Booked a female only room and felt safe throughout my stay, really liked the design of the bunk beds with their curtains, lights and convenient charging points. Only improvement I would suggest right now is proper lockers rather than trays under the beds for personal...

The host for this property made for a great stay! Upon check-in I was assisted with my luggage up the stairs, the cleaner is on super top of all the amenities, the communal lounge was warm and cozy during a particularly cold winter visit, and public transport is a 2 minute walk away. Would definitely stay again. :)
