We enjoyed the activities at the property, the kitchen set ups were good as well as the balcony. The only small complaint we have was we arrived at check in and they said our room wasn't cleaned. We waited 20 mins from the scheduled time. When we arrived at the room it was hot so I went all the way back down to get the temperature changed because the thermose wasn't in the unit. Overall besides check in and check out everything else was great!

Nice location and safe. A good mix of ages, not just young travelers. Did not eat there, but it is well serviced for those than cook their own food.

Great location & views from the top bar area. Staff were friendly. However the room was very basic. I realise it’s an upscale backpackers, but the aircon was terrible. We all slept on top of the beds sweating all night. Beds are typical of cheap accommodation (uncomfortable with a joke for a pillow) you get what you pay for I guess.

Great
Pros - rooftop bar and view of bridge and opera house. - clean comfy room. - TV with Netflix etc. - great well equipped kitchen to self cook. - easy location to go anywhere in Sydney. Cons - AC can’t be controlled so was a bit cold. - lift a bit dodgy so had to use stairs but only 4 floors.
