I arrived quite late at 11pm and had an early flight so I was hoping to get as many hours sleep as possible but the extremely loud noise of the air conditioning unit kept me awake for the entire night so this made my stay extremely unsuitable

Great Convenient Hotel

We really enjoyed our stay. The only issue was the cool shower and lack of storage in the bathroom. Also water went everywhere. We did enjoy the breakfast at The Mantra next door

Big enough bang for the bucks.

Absolutely adequate for the task of providing shelter for a short stay in Sydney. The AC was brutal. Colder than a witch's elbow. Quite disappointing that the laundry facilities were non-functional. Easy, walkable distance from the airport. Breakfast, provided by the fancy hotel next door (same management company), was superb! Nay, sumptuous! If all you need is four walls, a ceiling and floor, and comfortable bed at a reasonable price, this is the joint for you!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was a 10 minute walk from the domestic terminal. I just needed a place to crash before going into the city the next day and it was fine for that. The staff were busy and not terribly friendly. There are no facilities except some limited vending machine choices but McDonald's, KFC, and Krispy Kreme are next door. Apparently there's a restaurant at the neighbouring Mantra. The room was tired and gave off the vibe of being dirty but it was ok. The bathroom is tiny and once the shower was on the whole bathroom floor was soaked. Its fine for a cheap place to crash for a night.

It’sa very small roomed hotel which was very adequate for a late fly in and an early fly out. We walked from the domestic airport. Took 12 mins. It was clean. Quiet. And all that was needed for a good sleep and be on the move again
