Gresham Hotels - accommodation in Bondi Beach

Great location, wish there was a microwave at least on the property other than that it was perfect

This is an unstaffed property which I was aware of, but whilst it was clean enough and easy enough to self check in, I didn't feel overly safe there. There was a lot of noises that travelled, footsteps upstairs, bangs somewhere outside. Nothing immediately threatening to me, but there wasn't a secondary lock on the door, such as a chain, so given it was an unmanned property, I thought this should have been a priority. I didn't sleep very well because of this and therefore would not return. The windows are also not soundproof - earplugs were provided but any noise at all from outside was not at all filtered. Also at 7am they decided to do a fire alarm test. I understand that these have to take place but to do them at 7am seems unnecessary. It wasn't a terrible place to stay if it fits your budget, but I didn't think it was adequate for the cost compared to other places in the vicinity.

Amazing balcony and views. Could not fault it. Excellent
