Good price for the area. Bed was comfortable. Main letdown was no hot water for both days which I’ve never had before at any accomodation. Let reception know both days but nothing happened and didn’t seem to care. My room was very dirty, every wall had marks and food stains and felt you needed to wear thongs in the shower. Really just needed a thorough clean not just the toilet and make the bed. If those couple of things were rectified it would have been great

Great place to stay in Sydney! Close to just about everywhere you would want to go, and very affordable. The only downside was that I was not allowed to take the stairs despite being on the second floor, and the elevators are painfully slow...

Convenient location and friendly service. Cleanliness of the bedding could use more attention though as stains were present.

Liked: Staff & service
The only aspect of this stay I found to be displeasing was the setup and the cleanliness of the bathroom. However, I found the location to be ideal, being within ~30 minutes walking distance of notable sites, such as the Royal Botanic Gardens, St. Mary’s Cathedral, the Queen Victoria Building, and the harbor. This stay worked well for me, as someone who only uses the hotel as a place to sleep.

Stayed here a few times, and each time the staff have been friendly and accommodating. Can be a little expensive during peak times but it is a convenient location with clean air conditioned rooms. Will be back to stay again in 2 weeks for my birthday weekend

Staff was accommodating and professional but rooms are quite filthy — housekeeping did as good a job as they could with the rooms in a state of serious decline— one was obliterated by black mold and unsafe for anyone to stay in. They need to have the property professionally assessed for mold toxicity and the ventilation system professionally cleaned as the ac was blowing musty smelling air and dust all over
