There was a long wait until someone from reception arrived. The shower head was broken. The room had a random window with a blind, unfortunately it let a lot of the halllway light in. The buffet breakfast provided was mediocre at best.

In my room there's an unrepaired hole in the wall. The phone didn't work, the fridge was warm, no closet, no control of room temp and it was cold. The bed is on rollers and you can't get in it without it rolling away from the wall. Corners for room were filled with dust and dirt. The carpets in the corridors were dirty and stained, many stains.

The hotel was conveniently located for a festival we attended in Sydney. The staff was friendly and greeted us accordingly. The room is just big enough for two, so if the plan is to be out most of the time it will accommodate you.

My new fave place to stay for any medical/RPA visits. Clean, quiet room with an above average bed. Good hot water and love the Ink and Water toiletries. So close to buses and across the road from inner city park and bustle. Plenty of dining and entertainment with Broadway shopping centre. Friendly staff at front desk, happy to see me and store my bag for a few hours. My only suggestion is having a rubbish bin in the room and not just a bathroom bin. Thanks, I’ll def be back 😁

Not a great stay.

Room had no windows. Nobody made the room in 3 days. There were no glasses in the room. No toaster or cutlery and when we went downstairs into the dining area even though there was a kitchen it was I'll equipped with only a sandwich toaster and microwave. There was no toaster or tea towels or even plates.

We forgot an item in the fridge. We called to request to keep it for us. We rang early enough 11am so that the room is not cleaned. We physically went back just to find out the cleaner threw the item away. They could have called us back and let us know. Bad customer service. The location is bad and no car park available even to just off load the luggage. We will not stay there again.

I have to chamge room because in the first the blackout curtain had a gap and did not protect against street light. The second room there was not milk in the fridge. In both bedrooms were not sound proof as could hear all noise from outside.

This property was easy to central to where we wanted to be. No parking out front or on property and staff suggested local shopping centre. Arundel St, 4 mins walk away had free parking on Sunday only which was fine for us. Hotel room was basic and clean, no windows to the outside but fine for price. Staff were helpful and it was quiet. I’d stay there again.

The hotel looks very cheap. Central air conditioning had different smells during the stay. No windows. No desk. No garbage cane in the room. Door was locked when we got there. We had to keep knocking to get someone to open the door,
