It was clean and cute perfect for my 1 night stay for an event at the ICC. My capsule was a little damaged, duct tape around the opening. And they were a little creaky. But apart from that it was all good.

The capsules were clean, quiet and close to the central CBD. The other reviewers were correct; the pods are noisy when people move around, but most folks realized this and kept moves to a minimum. The bathrooms were very clean and modern - these were great. Like the other reviewers, I echo the thin mattresses (these weren't comfortable), but if you are ok with sleeping on a stiff-type surface, then this place would be fine for you, Not much outside noise, but my stay was mid-week.

Hit and miss
An overnight stay late at night. Didn’t feel safe with the bar in the same complex. Check in late it was tricky. I would suggest coming in the day and the bed was too soft I could feel the hard bottom. The reception was great looking after my bags the next day.

One of the better hostels I’ve stayed at. The other reviews about the bed being a bit firm are indeed true. Only two toilet for entire floor but luckily I went at a time when it wasn’t too busy. Staff was very friendly and I do like how the card key could be used for locker storage. Property was pretty clean and overall not bad!

Great affordable option to stay in Sydney. The hostel is super well positioned in the city - nearby to 2 metro stations within 7-10 minutes walk. The hostel has a basic kitchen - no cooking stoves but microwave, fridge for food storage. The capsules are fairly comfortable. It is nice that you can close the capsule door, it has a light and ventilators built in. The capsules are not sound proof so you can hear the neighbors but overall it gives you privacy, good and clean place to sleep, great location and sufficient amenities within the budget.
