It was in a very convenient spot within the Sydney CBD. Staff were very friendly and accomodating. Vibes within the place were immaculate. The shared toilets were mostly clean. The laundry was also very easy and convenient to access. Great stay overall. Would consider booking again if I ever came back to Sydney.

Great hostel. Perfect location - a stones throw from central station and the light rail. Everywhere felt very clean
Anna, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

An Australian owned hostel, founded by the Millet family. There are 3 hostels in the WAKE UP! chain, WAKE UP! Sydney Central, one in Bondi, and one in Byron Bay, Of all the 3 Wake Up's, WAKE UP! Sydney Central is the weakest link in my opinion, simply due to how it is run. The target audience for this hostel is 18-30 years. If you are outside of this age group, you may notice they may give you different treatment, esp if you are much older. I had an unpleasant experience with the
