Reviews and Ratings
I had a great view of Sydney Harbour Bridge. The rooms may not be soundproofed, so you might hear noisy neighbors all night. Cleaning was not up to standard as essential areas like sink, toilet, and door handles were missed, though beds were made, and toiletries were refilled. The rooms are small, and there's no complimentary breakfast compared to the same hotel in Melbourne and Brisbane at the same price.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was quite small for a double occupancy, but it was quiet as I stayed on the opposite side of the street. The shower arrangement was a bit restrictive, but overall it was decent. The service was friendly and helpful when needed, but I felt it could have been more welcoming. The location was ideal, with easy access to public transport and restaurants, although there wasn't much friendly interaction in the surrounding area. The dining options were simple, but I enjoyed the variety of coffee and breakfast items.
The hotel's location was ideal, within walking distance to the Opera House and near various restaurants. The rooms, while a bit dark due to surrounding trees, were clean with a poor layout and showed more wear and tear compared to others. The staff, though not very friendly, were very helpful and understanding, especially with services near Kings Cross station. The dining experience was a pleasant surprise with an extensive menu. The facilities were satisfactory, offering everything required for a comfortable stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms offered a great view of Sydney Harbour Bridge, but they were a bit small with tiny windows and no complimentary breakfast compared to other branches in Melbourne and Brisbane. However, considering it's a budget hotel, the rooms provide good value for money.
I had a wonderful time staying at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was amazing. The location was convenient, but there were a few drawbacks in terms of dining options. Overall, a great experience and highly recommended.
The hotel impressed me with its very clean and comfortable rooms, although they were a bit smaller than depicted in the pictures. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, always greeting me with a smile. The location was perfect, offering easy access to public transport and being close to restaurants and supermarkets. However, having to make up the bunk beds in our room was a slight inconvenience.
The hotel offers great value for money and is a good choice for budget travelers. The rooms are decent, but could use some improvement, especially in terms of size and shower arrangements. Some minor concerns with the appearance of black mold. On the positive side, the hotel provides a convenient cross-service with the train station and the staff are very accommodating.
The hotel's room was small but comfortable and quiet due to my stay across the street from the hospital. The service was exceptionally helpful, especially when they assisted in retrieving a lost earring. The location was convenient, being central next to a train station with various food options nearby. The dining experience was a pleasant surprise with a more extensive menu than expected, including made-to-order coffees. However, the dining value was not worth the price. Overall, a comfortable stay with excellent service and convenient location.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, and I appreciated the 24/7 reception and secure parking. However, there were some design flaws in the room, and I noticed some crumbs near the bathroom door.
The hotel is a good value option not far from the CBD, offering convenient access to the city but lacking modern updates. The service was a mix of helpful and rude staff, with some room for improvement. The location is excellent for exploring Sydney, making it easy to get around to various attractions and amenities. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.
The hotel offers a convenient location near the CBD and other attractions. Although the rooms are a bit small and could use more thorough cleaning, the staff is friendly and helpful. The dining options are varied, but dining early can be a challenge due to closing times.
The hotel is nestled in an excellent location, conveniently close to public transport, restaurants, and supermarkets. The rooms are immaculate and slightly more spacious than other properties in the same brand. The staff is friendly and the place is lovely and clean, although I did notice that the floor was not properly vacuumed during my stay. The hotel is situated on William Street Darlinghurst, in a one-way lane, offering easy access to a variety of food outlets nearby.
The hotel was perfect - so clean and spacious with nice and quiet rooms. The service was very friendly and accommodating, always helpful and polite, especially with parking information. The location was great, very central right next to a train station and surrounded by a lot of good food places, within easy reach to shops and transport links ideal for getting around. The dining experience was super with a great value continental breakfast. Overall, a wonderful stay with excellent service.
