Based on other reviews, I stayed here on the first night of a three week holiday in Australia. (I was moving on from Sydney the next day.) I stayed in a single en suite room. It was fine and compact! They allowed me to check in early which was much appreciated after the flight from Ireland. The hotel is fine, but It's a good bit from other places. You'll need to master the public transport system. I stayed in Y on the Park for the final fews days when I was back in Sydney. I wish I returned to the Y Hotel City South.

We got a twin room for less than $100, and were pleasantly surprised with the clean, comfortable and stylish room. The room was very small, but exactly what you need if you're just looking for a place to sleep.

When we got there we were given an uncleaned room by mistake, but the staff were friendly and helpful and quickly fixed us up with a different one.

I would definitely stay there again on an overnight trip to sydney.

My girlfriend and I just came back from a 10 day trip in Australia and we stayed in this hotel when we were in Sydney. Well, for starters, the hotel is located in where it says it is, in the city south. It's kinda far for walking distance from the main attractions of Sydney. But then again, my gf and I actually walked from Darling Harbour back to this hotel! Hahahaha...As for the interior of the hotel, well, it's clean and modern...they have a small but nice place downstairs for breakfast in the morning. And there is a microwave for us to heat up any food should you feel hungry in the middle of the night. As for the rooms, it's smaller than most hotel rooms that I have ever been but for the price you are paying, that's what you get, i assume...Clean bed and toilet...In short, I enjoyed my stay in this hotel...

Excellent value for money although location is not in the middle of the CBD it is a reasonable walk (20 mins) to the harbour. Lots of places to eat around the hotel.

Staff were very friendly and went out of their way to help us with any requests, including travelling plans.

Breakfast was fine (cereal and toast) although basic, as would be expected for the price. For cheaper rates don't book directly through the hotel.

The only down side was the location being next to a railway track (although soundproofing was fine and the trains were fairly infrequent at night). The rooms are quite small too.

This hotel is also a good loction for the airport and mascot area. The roof terrace is useful for smokers and chill out.

Overall we would definately stay again.
