Decent but wouldn’t stay here again

I wouldn’t stay here again. Lobby staff works part time only. There’s no kitchen or shared spaces. Rooms are small, and my room in particular did not have a sink. Shared bathroom was not an issue, and it was usually clean. There’s 1 train station nearby but not a lot of other transit options. You can find another hotel in a better location for the same price.

Good value! Great location, easy to explore the city by walking and train station close by. Clean modern rooms, would be better if the window opens to let fresh air in. Doors are heavy, you can hear other rooms closing loudly… We had late check in and never received the access email… had to call the nearby hotel with joint management to get the door code as there is no one on site in the evening or got back to our email until the next day. Would recommend for the budget :)

It was a nice place but rooms were very small, almost a bit hard to have room for all of your bags. Clean and nice toilets and showers. 17 $ discount on parking each night which is very good in Sydney. Nice touch to have the air cons going when you arrive.

Very comfortable room, with double bed, lots of pillows and nice sheets. Shared facilities were nice too: clean and stylish. Area is leafy and walkable, with interesting Art Deco architecture. Lots of different dining options. My room was on the top floor, with a narrow set of stairs, which may pose an issue for people with additional access needs.

I really enjoyed my stay here! This was my first time staying somewhere with shared facilities (i.e. bathroom) but it was genuinely a very comfortable stay and I found this was not an issue at all. The only negative was that I wish I knew there were so many stairs up to the room I was in, but I also knew I was booking last minute so I expected surprsies like that. Either way I will definitely stay here again no doubt in my mind.

Rooms are clean and cozy, beds are comfortable and also very clean. Although the rooms are nice, there were a few concerns. Firstly, there is no safe or anywhere to store your things and other reviews mention staff coming into their rooms (not sure how true this though). Second, the rooms are extremely loud. There is a large gap at the bottom of the doors so can hear banging of doors throughout the night. I think this could be helped with maybe a stopper on the bottom of the door or including something to put along the bottom. We travelled interstate, so had quite large suitcases and despite seeing this, the receptionist did not even open the door even after seeing us struggle to hurl them up the stairs. There was also no utensils in the room other than spoons, maybe there should be even a few forks or bigger spoons for snacks. The fridge kept things cold (reviews said otherwise) but ours at least was cold. The shared bathroom was clean and nice, but maybe a sign you could flip on the door to say it is occupied would be nice to stop people coming and trying to bang on the door whilst showering. Overall, is in a great spot that is easy to access from Sydney CBD but don’t bring too much luggage as there is no elevator or assistance from staff.
