The Little Drifter was a really nice place to stay with friendly staff and guests. The hostel is nice and close to Bondi Beach as well as plenty of shops and places to explore.
It was the first hostel I’ve stayed in that doesn’t feel like a hostel,
Staff are awesome, very friendly and knowledgeable,
Lots of activities to join,
Great time, would stay again.
Thanks team
Room was great for a person my size (170cm, average build) Would probably be a little cramped for anyone taller or heavier.
Staff were lovely and everything was clean and comfortable.
A great hostel that is well located! It has an excellent, dedicated new team that goes above and beyond to make guests comfortable. The rooms are well presented and clean. This is the best hostel I have ever stayed at!
I had a small private loft room that was perfect for my budget and needs.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
The bed was comfortable and the linen was good quality.
Bathroom was clean. Shower was good.
Wifi worked well.
The kitchen is very well equipped and kept clean.
Plus the location at Bondi Beach is ideal.
The city bus stopped very close by.
If you want overall great value, this is the place for you.
Television in the room, but no access to television channels. All I wanted to do was arrive and relax. Watch the television etc. Had to go down the street to watch a particular show, ridiculous.
