This hotel room was very impressive for an economy room. Had good air conditioner, microwave, fridge, tv, window with greenery outside, tea and coffee with jug, very clean, confortable bed. Shared bathroom facilities good and safe. Also a lift. Close to Martin Place and Wynyard so excellent location. Staff pleasant and helpful. You are given a room key and a key to get into hotel after hours. Am happy to stay again.

Location was perfect and if you don't mind not sleeping it was great. Its on a busy road so traffic and the pedestrian crossing sound kept us awake most of the night. Bring earplugs. Check in was a bit confusing, we went to the bar and was sent to another section. It's a very popular pub so there were a lot of people everywhere which made it a but tricky with our suitcases. They were accommodating to watching our bags as our rooms weren't ready yet

Central and affordable
We used the accommodation as part of participating in the Sydney Marathon. The rooms were basic, but clean. It is an old building and the rooms are located on the 3rd and 4rd floors of a very busy pub. If you are noise intolerant this is not the place for you. There is a function room on the 2nd floor that hosted functions during our stay. We were on the third floor. The windows in the rooms were not soundproof. Pub crawlers became noisier as the evenings progressed. On the plus side, you are close to all public transport and restaurants. You are also walking distance from all the main tourist attractions. The staff were helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean and attended to on a daily basis. If you are looking for affordable accommodation but don't mind the business of the city and noise of the pub we can recommend this accommodation.

The facilities are quite dated and basic. It takes at least 5 minutes to get hot water to the 4th floor. The bed is lumpy. The a/c did not work. Entry is they a pub that can be quite crowded.

You get what you paid for. A very nice location that is close to everything. Being above a bar and a main road there are is noise, which is expected and beyond the the accommodation's control. My only annoyance is the person next door was a bit noisy and the lift was a bit loud beinf next to my room. Still slept well and felt safe.
