Friendly polite staff. Cleaning on everyday basis. Multicultural environment. Books, Art , Free Breakfast and other resources available.
The price for a private beedroom I understand is quite fair . Specifically because Manly is one of the best places in Sydney. It is already expensive to live there. But It would be amazing If the price was a little bit cheaper only for people with specific situations. Of course Temporarily. At the end of the day is a business and rent for this type of properties , strata fees , staff etc cost so much so I think the Government should give some help to owners of beautiful places like this. It helps Increase the revenue of the Area when people can spend more outdoors by supporting local businesses etc I have nothing to complain about I really loved this place and I can't wait to come back for a chilling weekend. Thankyou , God bless you all

The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a bonus we weren't expecting but so appreciated, room was great, tidy, clean, loved the little balcony with a view of Manly beach. This is a backpackers so lots of traveller's and has a pub right below/next door so if you wanting quiet then this is not for you BUT we loved it!!! Very close to places to eat or get takeaways from and shops and super close to Manly beach!!
That the lift wasn't working just hard to navigate stairs with heavy bags

I stayed here for a mate's birthday. I needed somewhere clean, near the function, & secure. My room was spotless, the girl at the front desk was very friendly, & I met Arya the cat, which other reviewers have mentioned. The hotel was literally next door to the birthday I was attending. If you want somewhere in Manly that's handy to everything, then this is the place Other guests were quiet, but the patrons leaving nearby pubs were a bit noisy. This is out of the hotel's control, but the hotel supplies ear plugs, however I didn't need them. I visit Manly throughout the year, & will stay at this hotel again.
No complaints

I was supposed to stay only for one day in this hostel, and the vibe, the personal and the people I met, made me extend my trip here!!! It's a really cool place to discover Manly and fall in love with this particular area of Sydney! I recommend 100%!!!
Some of the things were not really working well in some room, and the heat as well was hard to manage in room even if there are fans in all them!

Location at Manly is perfect. Just minutes to the famous Manly beach. Price is the cheapest in metro Sydney. You can't find anywhere cheaper than this motel. Of course you pay what you get. It's a single bed in a dorm where you access via a key card. People from any countries including work holiday visa and some locals. You do have to look after your own belongings as there's no where to save the valuables as it's a big dorm.
If you share the room with other people unknown to each other, then you would expect noise issue.

Position is great. Table tennis and big rec and leisure room with balcony…nice
A little run down. Ad listing is not at all clear that it is intended for only under 35yo. And this is an unacceptable policy in the first place. However, the listing needs to have this information very bold and clear on the title of the listing like other places do.

Staff were so friendly helping me and my brother sort out our NSW stay voucher. They even have free breakfast and free snorkeling gear to rent. And to top it off the hostel has a stunning rooftop apart from being right in the hub of Manly!! What more can you ask for?
Pillow height could be a bit higher or maybe it was just time to change to a new one as the stuffing simply didn’t provide any support at all.

The location was great. The view from the small balcony was good. The staff were friendly. The breakfast was quiet and adequate. The nearby markets at the village school that happen every 3rd Saturday were great.
It was noisy but we were tired so slept through most of it. The bedroom doors bang all night and day. There is no nearby parking and the place is hard to find with GPS because it is located in a pedestian area where cars can't go.

I was pleasantly surprised the room was fresh and clean view over the Corso and to Manly beach It's close to restaurants and shops
No bar fridge in room This is only minor but having to walk up stairs to use the fridge in the communal kitchen was a bit annoying as this was a private room

Staff are amazing, location is amazing, and it has all the facilities you would need! The people are the highlight of this place. I will be back soon
Breakfast could be improved but every Sunday they do a BBQ which brings everyone together so it's a beautiful little family vibe.
