YHA Sydney Central

There is also a co-working space equipped with monitors. The shared space is large and clean, and the toilets and bathrooms are clean enough that you won't mind using them at all. I booked a 4-bed female-only dorm, but there were only two of us, so it was very comfortable. I had large luggage, and while they do offer a free luggage storage area after check-out, it requires carrying the bags up a flight of stairs. The staff offered to help, but my bags were too heavy so I gave up on using it. If they had an escalator there, it would be absolutely flawless. Other than that, I had a wonderfully comfortable stay!

Second time staying here. The room was messy with trash scattered around and the trash can overflowing. There was someone's luggage left behind that looked like it had been sitting there for months. I had requested a lower bunk, but got an upper bunk instead. The sanitary bin in the toilet was always full and unhygienic.

Surprisingly good! It’s super convenient to get here from the airport, train station, or by bus—no matter how you travel. The light rail station is just a few meters from the front door, taking you straight anywhere. The cleanliness is top-notch. I asked the front desk for a quiet lower bunk, and they did their best to accommodate me. My roommates were also very considerate and quiet. Aside from it being a bit warm and the mattress a bit too soft, everything was great. For luggage storage, there are both paid and free options; the free lockers allow you to use your own small padlock, which made me feel very secure both in the room and at the storage area. A hairdryer can be borrowed from the front desk by registering, to be returned within half an hour. I only stayed for one night, but I never had to wait in line for the shower or toilet—I could go whenever I needed, which was fantastic. They also screen movies every night, creating a great atmosphere. I didn't try the food here, but everything looked very well-organized. A thoroughly pleasant night!

The room was very clean, and the bathroom was spotless too. It was very convenient to cook meals in the kitchen, and there's a Coles supermarket near Chinatown. Central Station is right downstairs just across the street. A very satisfactory experience!

Convenient location and great value for money make this a more practical choice. • Transportation Hub: Located right across from the central station with a light rail stop right at the doorstep, making it extremely convenient to get to the airport or anywhere in the city. • Facilities & Cleanliness: The rooms are clean, and the beds come with privacy curtains. There's a rooftop pool, a movie room, and daily evening activities, creating a lively atmosphere. • Price: Usually cheaper than the Harbour branch, offering better value for money. • The basic kitchen utensils may be incomplete, and the laundry room is just averagely maintained. Also, being close to the station, some rooms might experience external noise.

Great location, right next to the central station, making it very convenient for taking long-distance buses. It's about a 3km walk to the tourist attractions, a 2km walk to the University of Sydney, and roughly a half-hour walk to the Fish Market.

Great for budget solo travelers! All my roommates were Chinese, haha, and everyone was super friendly and respectful, which made me feel very secure. The location is also very convenient, not far from Chinatown. I would definitely stay here again. Haymarket train station is right downstairs.

I used the dormitory for my solo trip as a university student. It was great that the toilets, shower rooms, and washbasins were kept clean. Hand soap was provided, but there were no other amenities. Please bring your own bath towel, shampoo, hairdryer, etc. Despite that, the low price and very convenient location were excellent.
