In Excellent Condition Now
To be honest, I read the previous reviews about this place and was very concerned about my choice of accommodation for my Sydney trip.
However Vic the owner was very communicative and kind enough to reassure me all the previous complaints about this place were about matters that occurred in the past.
When we arrived, we were greeted by a very friendly Cristina who is the manager.
Our room was spotlessly clean as was the ensuite bathroom.
Other people staying here were also very friendly and always said hello to us. They were also respectful of the house rules and always cleaned up after themselves and kept noise to a minimum.
This place also has a nice outdoor area with a BBQ for guests to use and enjoy. It is also close to the bus stops (literally diagonally opposite) so you can take the very frequent buses to Manly Wharf or Warringah Mall in the opposite direction for Westfield shopping.
Driving around in your own vehicle is also not a problem in the area. Or if you wanted to you could walk to the Wharf or Manly Beach from here.
All in all I would definitely stay here again.

Not a family place.
This place is in a great location. It was also a great value but that is where it stops.
We stayed in room 14. This room is not for tall people. The beds were very uncomfortable. I was allowed to use the shared shower. When I saw the mold on the ceiling I decided to use the one we paid for in room 14 even though the ceiling was low. They have foxtel which is great but good luck getting TV time. My wife took a fall on the back.deck due to the light being off. Cristina was quick to respond to our text but we never made the effort to talk to us in person in order to see if she was okay. In the end we ended up leaving a night early because we could not sleep there another night. This is what it takes to get me to spend an extra $169 to stay at another place. This place is probably great for young people who can sleep anywhere but it is certainly not for families. We would not stay there again and would likely pay that little but extra to not have towels that look like rags, uncomfortable beds and mold on the ceiling. I read a review stating this place got better. Nope.it has not.

Great location, priced right
The front desk was closed at 5 pm when I came to check in. No one answered the doorbell or my calls. Had to wait outside for 15 minutes. Not a good start.
Beds are worn out, and space is cramped.
But, it’s clean, the location is excellent, and you can’t beat the price.

Expensive hostel type accommodation with a grubby feel
I’ve stayed in many hostel type accommodations but none quite so grim as this. This is a lovely house, lovely features of a fitted kitchen, leather sofas in the lounge, tiled floors, tiled bathroom HOWEVER it would be hard to say when it was all last cleaned. Our room had mouldy bedding, damp on the wall, dirt and coffee rings on the window sill, old soap remnants in the shower, dirty shower, grubby toilet, sticky tables.
The kitchen was disorganised, no washing up liquid, no tea towels, no cleaning cloths so people were not cleaning up after themselves. There was milk in the fridge with a use by date of 3 weeks prior to our arrival. The fridges were a health hazard with ‘stuff’ dripping and pooling to the bottom. There was food rotting and breaking down in bags. They had clearly not been cleaned out for weeks. The owner said we were welcome to make a cup of tea or coffee “if we could find a clean cup!!!”. There were none.
The laundry was piling up by the washing machine; don’t know whether it was guests washing or the hostels, but for $4 to use, it had to be emptied prior to being able to use!
A lovely outdoor area was untidy And when we went out for breakfast we found the table to be filthy with the remnants of the previous nights party with fag ends burnt into the seat cushions.
The WiFi signal was poor and we could not get access. We did not pursue this. The TV in the lounge was on morning noon and night. The area was not a communal area because of that.
The owner apologised for it being a mess and suggested that guests could not read the notices that said “Clean up after you or be charged a $20 Fee”. No body was cleaning up. Nobody. Within 5 minutes of being there we had filled the garbage bin (which wasn’t emptied) and used a shower spray and toilet paper to clean the work surface and to clean some mugs.
We paid about $125 for one night here and I have paid less in better places. It was not value for money. I booked it through Airbnb. This is not a room in someone’s home. It is not a Guest House.
I do not normally write reviews like this, but I was let down on this property. I don’t mind old furniture, a cobweb or faded paint, but what I do object to is a dirty room and kitchen. I usually take reviews with a pinch of salt as the pictures don’t normally depict the reality.
I submitted a review of the place on Airbnb but the owner did not mutually respond or allow for the review to be published. For somewhere so popular, it was half empty at Easter and there a only a handful of reviews.

Under new management, great location, good vibes
A hostel in a great position, in manly, not too far or too close to the main parts of manly beaches and the wharf. Shared bathrooms and shared kitchen is kept tidy by guests and cleaned by new manager Karen. I was here during winter but all rooms were still full and I hardly ran into anyone which on one hand was good as it meant I could go on my own business but also unfortunate because I'm very social.
Only criticism is that I ran out of toilet paper one afternoon and couldn't find any spare and a little bit dusty. This is a great place to stay for young people or short trips. I would recommend to people who aren't fussy but just want a nice simple place to be in a very convenient spot in Manly.
