Venus Potts Point - Female Only

It was really great stay, the staff was so kind and friendly, They response so quickly less than a 2min when I had a question and call or text them ! The room I stayed has air conditioner, the they have few toilet and shower, laundry, and the kitchen was so big !!! They clean the kitchen so hard when I saw them, I felt bad to use the kitchen because it was so clean !!haha I extended stay, Thank you so much for all the help !

great for the price and felt super safe!

The absolute worst place to stay. It's listed as Venus Potts Point Hostel. Upon arriving at night, there are no lights outside despite claims that this is supposed to be a "safe" female only hostel. Was NOT safe and as a former SA survivor, I immediately felt the hair on the back of my neck prick up that this place wasn't safe. Always listen to your instincts. The rooms are dank and musty and smell of mildew. There's no proper Air conditioner unless you want to wake up everyone else in the room, easy to do as there's only curtains on one side of each bunk bed. There are no individual lights or chargers in each room as you might expect to have at the very least, so if you get in late, you've got to fumble around in the dark lest you wake the other hostel mates. This place is a dilapidated old building with no new furnishings to speak of and nothing at all like the pictures listed in their ads. The bathroom window is permanently left open and probably explains the mouse and 2 little cockroaches in found in the hostel. Of course it could be the door left permanently wide open to the back alley of the hostel. The dining room door has no knob and is literally a tetanus infection waiting to happen. The kitchen is disgusting and there is no space for anything but there were constant annoying messages and alerts to my Goki app from staff even after I left. There's no front desk staff if you check in at night and noone to help you.

It is a great place for a typical low-budget girls backpackers. One thing I noticed straight away is the great vibe and positive atmosphere all around. The rooms themselves are simple but have everything that is needed for a good sleep. There is a shared kitchen and an outdoor 'chill area'. So good that it's only female hostel, I feel myself safe)
