Roach Motel

Ye Gods !! What is the point of getting to Sydney for almost nothing if it's gonna cost more than the national debt to stay there?? I started at "Budget Hotels" (my ass!!) and worked my way down. I'm currently looking at a backpackers hostel in Kings Cross which has good reviews and very little 6pm news footage of body bags being carried out the back entrance while police cordon off the driveway. Apparantly I can get a twin room with a fridge, a smoke detector (!!) and a large padlock for somewhere in the region of my budget. Sounds like a winner. Bags I the top bunk!!
