Didn't interact with any staff due to a late check-in and very early check-out, but I didn't mind that. Instructions for after hours check-in were straightforward, and easy to follow, much appreciated! Room was clean and organised, and I liked the toiletries provided, very useful as I'd forgotten mine for that trip. Overall, I had no issues, and will very much book here again when staying in the city.

The rooms were nothing like what is pictured when booking. The whole place was dirty, poorly maintained - no lights in fixtures and the ones that were working kept pulsing, cracked walls broken windows, cups filthy and no tea or sugar in room, graffiti in the lifts, carpets’s trashed, plaster dust on the floor. Owners need to spend the money and fix it up or get out of owning hotels. Would NOT EVER recommend anyone to stay here.

The room was filthy. The window had jagged remains of broken glass and glass was in the room. It could not be closed.There was old take-away in the fridge, graffiti in the elevator, Mould in the bathroom and a lost pill behind the door which is clearly never vacuumed. We left. I have photos! The price was higher than for a Travelodge, so we expected clean and functional.

The hotel is in a great location for everything you might need and is cheap. My stay was fine but the cleaning needs to be done thoroughly to bring it up to a reasonable standard. The bathroom and toilet needed a good scrub. Dishes had to be washed in the bathroom basin but no cleaning equipment provided. I bought my own detergent and cloths as well as a coffee mug, bowl, and utensils as there were only 2 cups and one teaspoon provided. It was quiet in my room, which was great for sleeping at night, and the bed was comfy with clean bedding. No mattress protector though. I appreciated being able to access Netflix on the TV, and it was good to have tea, coffee and milk provided.

The location is great. However, I hope the things in the rooms will be more updated. All are working well, just that the AC was too loud and there was a lingering cigarette smell in the room when we checked in. I would come back but hopefully it’d be better next time.

I had a comfortable bed and a warm shower. Essentials. Extras: tubes of toiletries, a wine glass, clean crockery and linen. However, TV was hard to operate and pixated, but I got my ABC and SBS channels eventually. I was not game to turn on the heater as it was dusty and very old. Several power points did not work. The room was quiet and my stay ended up being very pleasant. Thank you.

The photos did not describe the property at all. The bathroom was mouldy, litter under the bed, the room filled with dust like it had never been cleaned, and could barely see out of the window. We were sold by the photos, but they were very deceptive. I have been in public toilets that were cleaner!
