The venue was convenient, clean and a great location for accessing the city of Newcastle. I did need to use WIFI and, while it was available, it was a free low speed throttled service. I would like to have known in advance that I had to pay extra to access a usable data rate.

2 night stay at Ibis, Newcastle

A typical Ibis facility, if you have stayed in one before you know what to expect. Smallish room and bathroom, fridge, TV, Kettle, etc. OK for a couple of nights when travelling. Can get paid breakfast downstairs.

Easy to catch tram to various places. Walk to Coles supermarket. They clean every second day. I asked for my room to be cleaned on the second day at reception in the morning. I came back in the afternoon. It was not cleaned. The housekeeping had finished for the day. I even left the cardboard message for my room to be cleaned on my doorknob that faced the corridor. I had to get new towels and a bathmat by calling reception after 5 pm.

The receptionist was unprofessional, on arrival she served other guests who arrived after me before me. My key wouldn’t work I had to return to the main desk 4 times before I could access the room I had booked a queen and stayed in a double. There was no soap dispensers in my bathroom and no towels. On my second night I was once again locked out of the room to be told sometimes the system automatically and at random will check guests out. Room doesn’t provide cutlery or anything to use when eating in the room

Good location for public transport. Outdoor bar/seating area needs to be cleaned up or at least swept. Only two very flat pillows on the bed and we were told they didn't have any more to give us.
