Litter strewn on the floor at the main door of the hostel, one of the toilets in the hall was filthy with the bin overflowing. We were staying in a private room, which was absolutely tiny we barely had room to leave our suitcases on the ground. We would have been fine with the cramped conditions if it hadn’t been for the strong smell of urine in the room that greeted us when we arrived. Our private toilet was also miniscule and the smell of urine seemed to be coming up from the drain. When we asked a member of staff to help alleviate the issue, they simply said that they “couldn’t smell anything.” We found it extremely difficult to sleep that night due to the overwhelming smell. The next day we returned to our room to find that the cleaner had left the door open after changing the bins in the room which I find to be wholly unacceptable as our personal items were being kept in the room. The general lack of space in the room and indifference from staff members was quite infuriating and we decided to cut our trip short- staff would not provide any compensation for us deciding to leave early. The only positive was that the hostel is located within a few minutes of Bondi Beach.

Genuinely the worst place I have ever stayed in. the singular postive I could find is the location. Issues- Strong smell of urine in room Private ‘room’ for 2 was the size of a closet. Request to shorten trip and receive some form of compensation for the awful conditions was met with a ‘voucher’ for a similar hostel. Room door left open by ‘cleaners’ on 2 occasions. Aircon uncontrollable.

I don't normally leave reviews so easily, but about this hostel I would like to complain. The rooms are very small, there are no lockers and hardly any space to store your things. The ensuite bathroom is also minuscule, making it barely usable. Also the mattresses are very hard. The communal areas are okay in terms of how clean it is, but again very small and without windows. There is no normal place to sit and eat, although the kitchen is fine. Furthermore, there are a lot of weird people in this hostel and it is not social at all. Also, the staff behind the reception makes absolutely no effort to help you. Only the location of this hostel, 3 min walk from Bondi beach is great. Other than that, I would definitely not recommend this.

I’ll start with the positive, the woman on reception was really friendly and polite. That was it. The room was absolutely disgusting, I had to swat about 5 mosquitoes, and the walls were covered in squished bugs from previous tenants. The room itself was tiny, the ‘en suite’ was like Harry Potter’s bedroom. Sheets were just thrown on the bed and we had to put them ourselves (boo hoo). No towels were provided. The beds were made of concrete. The walls were paper thin and unbelievably coarse which when getting down from the bunkbed I grazed my arm. Other tenants just pile out into the street making the place look so uninviting. I feel sorry for actual residents on that street it must be hell. In the reception area, they left the dirty laundry basket that was FILLED with bloody tissues just out in the open for guests to see. If you want a good night sleep don’t go here. If you want to just listen to loud club music against your will maybe this is the place for you.

Pray that you aren’t in room one. The walls and window are so thin that if you intend on sleeping before 4am on a Friday night/Saturday morning that’s wishful thinking. Considered sleeping in my car. Redeeming quality they refunded that night

My partner and I stayed at the private room with a shower. Great welcome at reception by a lovely, friendly Chilean girl (sorry, can't remember her name). She was excellent. The place was clean, and only a short walk to a cafe and the beach. Located at a lovely quiet street lined with trees which makes you feel you are a lot further away from the hustle and bustle of the main road. There was aircon/heatpump in the room. Very comfy pillows and bed. Great place!

Javier, Jaime and Ember were amazing! I arrived with loads of stuff and my booking was cancel and they all fix it and make it so smooth for me to settle. They give a hand to bring everything to the room! So nice and smooth!

Would highly recommend The Village, great location and wonderful staff. Gavi especially gave me a very warm welcome and a helping hand whenever it was needed, really made my stay comfortable and homely.

Couldn’t fault our last stay! An amazing stay at the Village Bondi! We had a private en-suite room and it was spotless and super cosy. The staff were really friendly and Eloise was an absolute gem, she really made our stay so enjoyable! The location is ideal with shops, restaurants and the beach within a few minutes. Currently booked in for another week after a great previous stay. Would recommend 😊

The whole experience was 10/10, the staff, and the facilities were very good. We will 100% stay again. The only issue is the bathroom being so small, but usable and clean! The kitchen and communal areas were always clean and tidy. Very close to the beach with only a 30 second walk.

Horrible, dirty, very noisy ...cockroaches... if you have money to loose .. the pictures on their website don’t reflect the sad reality . You can find good hotels in Sydney for the same price ... Don’t go there !

The interiors and exteriors of the property are actually nicer than other hostels I've stayed in but the main issue I and my roommates had, was the lack of cleanliness and small maintenance issues. For example, the toilet seat in our ensuite was not screwed on so would continually fall off. The blinds on the window were stuck so we couldn't close them. The weekly Sunday Spring clean seems to be very light on and we specifically had to ask for more toilet paper. All of that aside, the most enjoyable part of my stay was my friendly roommates all who are from the UK. I would stay here again because its very close to the main shops and beach in Bondi. The hostel provides a bed to sleep in, but not really a place to hang out.
