Overall Experience: NEGATIVE Stayed: August 16th-17th, 2012
I can say from personal experience that my stay here was very short since I was catching a train out of town the very next day. However, if I was not leaving town I would have left immediately the next day anyways, because of the hygienic conditions, (or lack there of) at this hostel. I would not recommend staying here if you plan on staying for an extended period or if you will be spending a lot of time indoors. There are several other clean and safe backpacker hostels in the area, such as Bounce Sydney.
