nico_collard Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 And it's either Kings Cross or Central... Kings Cross is very cheap, but for a good reason... However, I think Kings Cross may be closer to the Entertainment Quarter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakie Doke Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 And yes you're right... I can't even see if it's available those days... That last link I gave is $40 per bed.. but I don't want to go too cheap... the cheaper the place, the dodgier... That Wake up one is $40 per bed too... but in an 8 bed dorm... STOP EDITING! This post had no prices in it the first time I saw it $40 for an 8 bed dorm is pretty bad What's the other one? I'll repeat - the link didn't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it less dodgy around there then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico_collard Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Alright... I found one that's $26 per bed in a 12 person dorm... It's in Kings Cross, but as far as I can tell we probably won't contract some sort of hideous disease from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nico_collard Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Okay... Central is right in the middle of Sydney... the cheaper ones are already taken... $40 is about the cheapest I can find... King's Cross is a few K's away... and has a lot of porno shops and such... I think most places in Syd are dodgy (then again I come from the country ), but from what I remember of Kings Cross, it can be slightly more dodgy than Central... Try this: http://www.hb-247.com/aff/index.cfm, if not, try this one... http://www.sydney.com.au/hotels-chinatown.htm Go to the link that says Hostel/Backpacker, then look for the link that says Backpackers Headquarters...

That seems quite alright... and I think I can get there from the station... Price is good too...

I think most places in Syd are dodgy (then again I come from the country ), but from what I remember of Kings Cross, it can be slightly more dodgy than Central... Well it sounds just like Northbridge here, which is also where all the backpackers are. But I think it gets talked about like it's much worse than it is, I'm not too scared to walk through it at night to get to the comedy places on the far side, there's always police within sight, so it seems safe enough like that Try this: http://www.hb-247.com/aff/index.cfm, if not, try this one... http://www.sydney.com.au/hotels-chinatown.htm Go to the link that says Hostel/Backpacker, then look for the link that says Backpackers Headquarters...

Oakie Doke Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 My dad says that Northbridge and Kings Cross are indeed pretty equivilent But I'm not sure how knowledgable he is because first he said "Yeah, pretty much, but Kings Cross has all sex shops and strip clubs" and then I said "Northbridge has all sex shops and strip clubs" and then he was like "Really?

Wendi Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Wendi's dog, technically Thanks Silver - sometimes with the sleepless nights I feel like it IS me who have had them!! And the noise they make during the night sounds a bit like a newborn baby - and I semi-wake from a deep sleep wondering if I have given birth and just forgotten!! Sorry to hear about Princess OKD!!

I'm not 100% comfortable in Syd cause it's not somewhere I've lived... and I've seem the dodgy parts of Kings Cross (like where the drug addicts shoot up)... call me a silly country person if you will, but that's just me...
