Travel Purpose: business
Positive: Fed up of boring hostels ? Done with the backpackers life ? Tired after an endless trip ? Mad Monkey Potts Point has a solution to all of these problems. The hostel offers : - A welcoming place where you can chat with friendly people - Staff members doing their job properly and always happy to help - Events every night to strenghten the relationship with other travelers - Cosy bedrooms, a warm kitchen and clean bathrooms - Should I keep going ? It’s maybe better to find it by yourself. Living in Mad Monkey Potts Point was more than just a place to sleep and eat, it’s a lifestyle, where I found a family and a safe place. After a 6-month stay, I’ll bring heaps of memories back home…. From a place I’m now also calling home.
Summary: There’s just one thing I didn’t like : leaving this place
