For an oldie with hip and lower back problems too many stairs. It is a pity the lift, that quite apparently was originally there, has been removed.
Parker
Maze Backpackers met my needs for a short solo trip. The Best part is their location. 8 minute walk to central station, 5 minute walk to light rail. On Pitt Street in \"Thai\" town. Next to China town. It worked great for me.
Kris
Friendly staff free hot dog oh yeah
Andy
Eh things are dated but you get for what you pay for
Irish Carla
good for someone who would like to save in accomodation and would spend more outside 😅 great area lots of asian restaurant around. Near world square,parks and around 10min walk CBD
Kana
I slept in a shared room with six people. It was actually nice being around people I didn’t know and having the chance to chat with them. I felt safe, and everything was reliable. The stuff is very kind and polite appreciate the hospitality. Thank you.
Cynthia
Was room so small for price and had pay for towels and tolets was not clean.
Valerie
I had a single room - bed was comfy. Sheets blankets pillow were clean. My only complaint was the kitchen was for the whole place it was large but got very hectic - the Casual seating area Had a pool table and again got hectic. - the only place I had to sit was my room - but there was no chair - overall. It was good value - the bad things were just my personal preference on things and previous stays at other backpackers that had supplied them - I did love it was 24/7 for the front desk. Bathrooms were clean ( also I’m 58 im
Not into Socialising with lots of people lol ). But would recommend for backpackers who like to socialise :-)

Great location, amenities & staff but loose points for poor wifi, lack of PowerPoint's and mould in the bathrooms
Jamie
The only room in the entire building that has air conditioning is the reception. Room was stuffy, We had a tiny fan in our room blowing hot air. The bunk beds were not comfy at all. You can feel the springs under the mattress.
Bathroom was nice.

Grace

Jono
There were cockroaches in the room, it was very hot and very loud due to plant noise right outside the window.
Only thing going for it was the price but when you can’t sleep, it’s not worth very much.

yenting
Friendly and helpful
Phoebe
Accomadation is very dated but the showers and rooms are okay to use. The atmosphere is a bit strange. I have seen others comment about the 'bitchiness' around by other guests which is quite accurate but not a reflection of the staff themselves. I would stop in again, as it is conventionaly located near shops including grocery stores. I was given a quiet room thankfully abd the ceiling fan was used religiously. I would reccomend
Phillip
Had a great time! Would stay again
Abby

Alex
Thank you for making my stay great!
Olly
The accommodation is a bit more rundown than the pictures and to get a blanket and more then 1 pillow you have to pay a deposit that you get back at the end of your stay but still annoying another $30 I could of spent on my holiday and with no heater in the room you do need it also the hand dryer in bathroom didn’t work the whole time I was there and the sanitary bins had not been emptied in days. But the staff were lovey
Jack
Good location, good hostel
Maze backpackers did exactly what we needed, located in a pretty good spot in the CBD. Sydney is pretty massive, so you need to walk or take taxis to get anywhere fast, but a comfortable walk from the Darling Harbour area with lots of shopping around.
Bridger
Value for money
Adam
Good location, friendly staff
Tayla
Beds were nice but had to show if every time I entered and wait for them to check that I was a guest.
Very inconvenient.
But overall amazing location

Bridget
The staff were nice, although one lass seemed really confused every time I spoke to her. The room itself was clean, beds were comfortable enough, but the bathrooms were disgusting. There was always water on the floor of the toilets, the sanitary bins were overflowing, the hand dryer didn't work and it was just generally unpleasant and run down.
Glenda
Bathrooms dirty
Henkie
I was here some time ago and things are different but the staff are friendly and helpful.
Sabrina
You get what you pay for. Decent accommodation and pretty clean. Staff are at the desk 24/7 to help. Quite busy and full of people.

Danielle
Parking
They have a discounted parking deal with a parking site very close by which was very reasonable.
Room with double bed small but you expect that in a hostel. Great location in Haymarket.

Dayna
Staff at reception were kind and offered various suggestions on what to do/where to eat around the area when I asked. The facilities were clean, quiet, and amenities are nothing crazy but offered multiple clean spaces to hang in. New to travelling and first hostel stay, honestly have no complaints!
peter
I loved everything nice spot to stay very friendly 👍
Andrew
All good, no problems.
Bryan
Great place to stay on short visits
Anna
The beds were comfy and the location is excellent. The kitchen was pretty clean and there seemed to be plenty of equipment for use. The towel was a nice touch.
However, this hostel was not the cleanest. The rooms didn’t feel especially clean (although the bedding did). The bathrooms were definitely not very clean. The sanitary bins were overflowing

Elizabeth
Good low-budget option for short stay. Beware, the hostel is only available for over 18s and ID is required for all guests.
William
Great price for short stay.
Mine was an overnight stay for business reasons. I knew I would not be spending much time at the property because of the business commitments so just needed somewhere clean and comfortable to sleep. The Maze suited my convenience perfectly. I booked a private room with shared bathroom facilities, which were spotless and convenient to my room.
Scott
With activities every night, it's a very social place, travelling alone means nothing here as you will meet people and have a great time.
Note it is humid inside the rooms over summer.

ebony

Always excellent, I’ve stayed here a few times in the past and love it, will be back again.
Doreen
The property was definately convenient for me. Great location. Suitable with my budget. Near Coles (World Square) and Paddys market. The kitchen was a also a plus for me, all essential utensils were available and I was able to cook my own meals. The shared toilets and showers, however, required more frequent cleaning, as did the bed linens. Lastly, the bustling street, alive with nightlife, blaring music, revving engines, and occasional blood-curdling screams, often jolted you out of a good night's sleep.

Great
A good, basic backpacker's, very good kitchen, very central.
Kahlia
The bathrooms were a bit dirty, the room was basic but did the job. There was a party in the kitchen most of the night. And a loud fan outside my window
Agnes
Super sweet staff. But it smelled funny and the bathrooms and other areas were a bit run down
Donna
Excellent location for getting around and grat food. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms and shared spaces very clean.
The property is old and needs a little tlc.
External noise disturbed.

Warm staff and centrally located to everything this backpackers is no frills but perfectly adequate for a cheap fun trip to the city. Can be a bit noisy but otherwise was fine for a night!
Taylor
Terrible wifi as well. I have fairly low standards, I’ve stayed in many hostels. I’d rate it higher if the price was a bit lower, felt it was a bit overpriced for the cleanliness, noise, wifi etc
Thavatsay

Russell
Economy level achieved
For the price of the room it was very acceptable. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was basic but did the job. Clean enough too.
Aidan
Great location. Pretty poorly maintained and noisy at night despite their signs saying \"strictly no noise after 11pm\". The toilets were gross. And there's a reason it's called the maze, the labrinth of hallways to find your room and toilet are astonishing. Worse when a toilet is closed for cleaning so you need to walk a marathon to releive yourself.

great value for the CBD. Room had power points, window, comfortable bed, a table/chair. Great for a back-packers.
Naomi
Only stayed here as I needed a place to keep my stuff overnight and get a quick sleep in before a flight. The room had a disturbing smell and there was only one power outlet. The beds were also quite dirty. Wouldn’t stay here again.
Yu
Very affordable price to stay in the city of Sydney. The properties were good, but they don’t supply hair dryer.

Robert
Economic comfortable place to stay
Lindy
Friendliness of staff and shop retailers in the area.
Location within walking distance to light rail and close to everywhere I wanted to go.
Julian a guest who took my bag up to the second floor then was interested to know my opinion on where I went.
I felt completely safe walking in the street at night being on my own and female.
Most guests ignored me but this I didn't mind since the desk staff were so friendly.
I'd gladly stay again.
This was the first holiday I had by myself so I got to go where I wanted without having to compromise to suit someone else.
I was born in Sydney and loved living there, I'd move back if it wasn't so expensive to rent.
Coffee cafes cheaper than Queensland.

Julian a guest who took my bag up to the second floor then was interested to know my opinion on where I went.
I felt completely safe walking in the street at night being on my own and female.
Most guests ignored me but this I didn't mind since the desk staff were so friendly.
I'd gladly stay again.
This was the first holiday I had by myself so I got to go where I wanted without having to compromise to suit someone else.
I was born in Sydney and loved living there, I'd move back if it wasn't so expensive to rent.

This is my first time in a backpacking hostel and I really enjoyed it. It's just a short walk from Museum Station around 7 minutes, the place is really clean and tidy they have a billiards table tv room with a movie night on Thursdays with free pop corn and chocolates, I went during Mardi Gras and there was free glitter and makeup to get ready for the street parade, I was really impressed, I chose a single room the only negative is the mattress is a bit uncomfortable but not too bad I ended up putting the bed quilt on top as I could feel the springs in the mattress I'd definitely go here again when traveling to Sydney again

I STAYED only 1 night. The staff was friendly. My only complaint was there was no lift and i had to go to second floor. Ok for young people but i am 75.A lovely French girl carried my luggage up stairs and found my room for me. The room was small but had a clean bed, power points, alarge wall fan and hooks for clothes. The toilets were near and reasonably clean.This was a Saturday night and the room was quiet.dispite the number of people outside attending restaurants etc.

Such a great place to stay, good location, friendly staff. Only down side bathrooms were hot and miss with being clean.
Julie
Cheap and cheerful
Well organised hostel, staff really good. Unfortunately guests slam doors and there's a lot of noise from the traffic and extractor fans.
Great that you can leave luggage in lockers and kitchen very well equipped.
Lots of bathrooms cleaned regularly, did see a couple of cockroaches in corridor.
Very handy location just 5 min walk from the train station

The place was relatively easy to find and it was close to everything that we needed.
The room that we stayed in was clean, the bed could have been more sturdy I felt like it was going to break. The common areas were relatively clean. The staff were very helpful and kind

In the heart of the city…room could need a renovation (so does the rest of the building’s interior.
Katrina
Convenient, clean & close to public transport
Kane
Awful hot box rooms with the most useless fan to blow the hot air around the room rather than help with cooling

The staff were friendly and the events put on at the hostel by staff were great. The location was awesome as it was very central so walking everywhere was convenient. With it being located on a busy street, the rooms facing the street are extremely noisy, but the rooms off the Main Street were fine noise wise. My only issue was that the room I was in did not have a wifi signal in the room so I had to stay in common areas to use the wifi or use my cellular data.
Evan
Great value close to the city center
Great value option for a single room close to the city. Bathrooms were not the cleanest, but there was always a shower/stall available. Front desk staff were super friendly/helpful. Otherwise, feels like a standard hostel -- fun activities/plenty of people looking to make friends. I did appreciated that it was not loud.
Colleen
Great location. 1 short block from George St trams up& down city. Very clean bathroom and kitchen. Im a grandmother, had a small single room that was basic but clean. Don't expect the Ritz because it is a backpackers, but cheap prices give very good value for central Sydney.
Friendly reception.
