Comment by Only good thing was meeting people.
March 2006
I just cheched out of Noah's to move into a flat and ended up having scabies from the bed I slept in there. The kitchen was always discusting, the walls in my dorm dripped with unknown substances, and when I told the manager that I'd spent $65 on doctor bills he basically told me that it wasn't his problem. It was the first place I stayed on my trip so I'm one hundred percent certain that the mites came from Noah's. I know of cleaners who have access to every room stealing passports and digital cameras, so be sure to always lock everything you hold important to you up. The only thing I truely enjoyed about the place was the people I met and are still friends with. But you can meet great people anywhere, without suffering through all the rest. Oh yeah they claim to be part of the VIP card club but they don't accept it.

if you want your stuff nicked, be kept awake all night and sleep in hot smelly rooms this is place for you! seriously though, the social scene here is great with bar downstairs and massive roof terrace, loads of people to meet. great location for beach, shops, cafe's buses etc etc. however the rooms are basic and the kitchen is pretty disgusting, and its sooo noisy at night. if you want party party party stay here, if you have any standards with regards to cleanliness you will hate it!

It's great. I know the owners and I'm friends with their son and it's a beautiful place opposite the beach. What more could you want? There are convenience stores around the corner and there is a beautiful kosher fish and chips shop downstairs. I would recommend this place to anyone.

I stayed at Noah's for five nights in an all-girl dorm. I thought the staff were quite helpful. The rooms were clean and showers were good. It's a big hostel, with tons of people to meet if you're travelling alone, like I was. I would recommend staying here.

I loved this hostel. If you want to meet friends and enjoy the backpacking experience then this is the place to stay. It's a stone's throw away from the beach. What more could you want!!

I stayed at this hostel last year and thought it was great! It's one of my favorites on the East Coast!! The rooms with a sea view are fantastic and clean. It's just as good as any expensive hotel you can find around, but at a super cheap price right on Bondi Beach!

This hostel is absolute rubbish. The common room is a tiny little ad-on to reception, with a pool table that no one uses, which takes up most of the room. You can smoke in this room but not drink! There is a bar, but it's closed for half the week, and is crap anyway. The kitchen closes at 10 p.m., so you can't even make yourself a cup of tea after this time. The staff are a bunch of depressing lay-abouts. The kitchen is full of pigeons, the shower screens are almost see-through--porno style! This place has the atmosphere of a morgue. Avoid it at all costs.

Worst hostel I stayed in on a 10 month trip. Rooms are dirty and crowded, bathrooms are too small for the size of the hostel, with absolutely no privacy. As for the kitchen, it was the rankest thing I've ever been in with hardly any plates,cutlery, etc. Plus, pigeons wander around it from the 'rooftop BBQ area' and people nick your food. Overpriced sh*thole.
