The Central Private Hotel is not a high end property but there were a number of things that made it stand out. Location, virtually right next to Central Station. Staff, a late booking and check in, not a trouble to the staff member. Facilities, the room had all facilities I required. Cleanliness, spotless, I must admit I was impressed, especially with the shine on the sink.

The property is next to Central station, so is convenient in that sense. One can catch a city tram or suburban train. The property is old, the furnishings in the room are basic, standard. Double bed, tv, sink and small bar fridge. Most rooms dont have ensuite, so sharing the bathroom, which are across the hall. The stairs are bit of an issue, particularly if you have quite a bit of luggage, or heavy luggage. There is no lift. Quite a few stairs.

I had the guy from reception harassing me about my checkout time well earlier before it was time for me to leave my room. He came twice to me about me about it. No self respected hotel does this. It was outrageous. I understand this was not at all a luxury hotel, but it is a hotel none the less, it is quite expensive for a single bed with no facilities at all and a share bathroom, and they wouldn't let me in peace. And for what it was, I have far better stays for less than what they charge. It's a complete rip-off For 20 dollars more I would have had a very decent room with a purgatory bathroom. DO NOT STAY AT THIS PLACE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET RIPPED OFF AND BE HARASSED IN THE MORNING.

The staff were nice, and the room was fine, with a separate bathroom. Unfortunately there were some unsavory characters staying in and around the hotel, which made my stay rather unpleasant, including being verbally abused for making noise at one stage. The place seems to be used for government housing, and as a young woman traveling by myself, I did not feel overly safe in this accommodation.

The room had a basic ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, small writing desk, air condition and wardrobe with hangers which served my requirements perfectly for a 4 day stay. The common area carpets were stained and room furniture was beaten up a bit but everything was generally clean, on first floor with no lift which was OK for me - reception offered to carry up my small suitcase to my room I declined. A cheap priced room that served my purpose very well, close walk to trains buses and tram.

Neat and tidy. Reasonably priced. Basic. I've stayed twice, and would stay again. Once on level 1 and used a share bathroom upstairs. The second time I stayed upstairs and had an ensuite. Cost is very reasonable and despite reading negative comments online, it was fine. The location is near restaurants, and grocery and tobacco and alcohol shops and is opposite the light rail and Central Station.
