Ekelhaft und katastrophal
Absolute Frechheit dieses Hostel. Küche u d Toiletten absolut unhygienisch und eklig (Bilder auf tripadviser). Küche riecht nach erbrochenem und in die Sanitärenanlagen würde ich nie wieder hineingehen.

위치만 좋고 나머진 그닥
킹스크로스역에서 가깝다. 주변이 씨끄럽다. 깨끗한 편은 아니지만 지낼만은하다. 다들 파티하고 놀고 그러느라 분위기는 자유분방하지만 숙박시설관리는 조금 부족한거같다. 아침에 체크아웃할때 관리하는 사람이 커피타러갔다가 늦게 오는 바람에 비행기를 놓쳤다.

Smutsigt
Äckligt, weed doft överallt, inte städade toaletter och folk som bröt reglerna. Ända fördelen är priset och det oftast fungerande gratis nätverket. Snäppet bättre än att bo på gatan med en maddrass.

J'y suis restée juste car j'avais payé ma semaine
L'hotel n'est pas propre du tout... que ce soit la chambre où la moquette est humide et où le ménage est fait seulement le mètre carré situé à l'entrée ou alors les salles de bain ou j'ai eu l'occasion de prendre ma douche avec des cafards où les cheveux bouchent l'évacuation. Bref prendre sa douche avec ses chaussures en permanence. Je ne souhaiterais pas cet hôtel même à quelqu'un que je n'aime pas.

Zentrumsnahes Hostel mit freundlichem Personal
Sydney Zentrum, The Rocks und die typischen Sightseeing-Ziele sind zu Fuß gut erreichbar. Das Frühstück ist rustikal aber ausreichend, das Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Zimmer, Küche und Gemeinschaftsbad sind ausreichend sauber und in Schuss. Die Zimmer sind selbstschließend, gegen Schlüsselpfand kann man Küchenutensilien leihen. Trotz Zimmer Richtung belebte Straße nicht zu laut.

Expected the worse but it was actually really nice
Stayed there a couple of days when me and my family were visiting Sydney. My parents are really not used to live in backpackers hostels but since this place was the only one available we didn't have much of a choice. From reading other peoples reviews, I was expecting a really shabby hostel with a lot of junkies but I was actually quite nice. It was easy getting there from the airport since it's close to the Kings Cross station. The hostel is located in a red light district, but we didn't notice it that much since the hostel is located in a lane (and when you walk in to Sydney CBD you don't pass through the street with the porn shops.) It's close to the Royal Botanical Garden and the Opera House so if you're just there to see the city and don't want to spend a lot of money on a hotel, this is a perfect place to live. We stayed in two double rooms and they were quite okay (really okay to be a hostel at this price).The breakfast was simply just toast, marmalade, milk and some corn flakes, nothing fancy (but regarding that is was included in the price it was actually pretty ok). The man in the reception was really nice and helpful! The only negative I have to say was that even though that it was supposed to be quiet after 10 pm people were really loud and ran around in the hallway.

Gute Lage aber schmutziges Hostel
Das Funk House liegt Nahe der Bahnstation King Cross. Von dort aus kann mann das Stadtzentrum in wenigen Minuten erreichen. Die Unterkunft ist aber sehr schmutzig und es wird wenig dagegen unternommen. Das Zimmer hat trotz offenem Fenster übel gestunken. Günstige und zentrale Unterkunft mit wenig Komfort.

If you are liking to play with other friend
It's a good place, if you like to meet other friend. There are many places for night culture. But if you are to like quiet places, Be careful ~
