Customer Reviews Sydney - Railway Square YHA
| 29 Dec 2011 Adam, Northern Ireland | 67% | |
| I stayed in the carriages which was unusual, novelty but the trains usually woke me in the morning and you had people tapping the window. Also someone jumped over the fence on my first night and tried kicking a few doors in. It was left to a fellow backpacker to deal with it. | ||
