The property was very clean and Close to things that we were interested in just a short Walk to the train station for easy access to anywhere you want to go
shelly, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

A delightful hotel, very conveniently situated. Plenty of eating options close by. My only suggestion would be to upgrade the mattress I was sleeping on. It needed a top-up cover.
Jan, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location clean staff friendly
John, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

DO NOT STAY HERE

Absolutely horrendous management, so much so that it’s obvious it does not care if people return to the hotel or provide negative feedback or reviews. The hotel did not have power and the only thing the hotel did to address the problem was pass out flashlights. I’m not exaggerating. There are way too many other hotels in Sydney that would be happy to have your business, than for you to take a chance on this place.
James, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional
