Good for the price!

It’s a very good hotel for the price. It’s located perfectly in Sydney for tourism. The place is pretty worn out, and the showers leave a bit to be desired, but for the price it’s to be expected. I’d would still recommend this hotel to any traveler on a budget that doesn’t want to stay at a hostel or who appreciates their privacy. There is a lot of construction near the hotel, but that’s just the situation everywhere in Sydney at the moment.

Economical option for cruise passengers

Convenient location for cruise passengers. Nothing fancy, but a very economical option within walking distance to Circular Quay. Be aware of shared bathroom/showers. Staff were very friendly and helpful with storing luggage prior to checkin.

I like that it is reasonably priced but it was much better a couple of years ago when, for less money, breakfast was also provided. The room was comfortable (just) but in common with my last stay, noisy (exterior exhaust fan runs all night) and inadequate curtain allows light into the room making sleep virtually impossible. I won’t be staying there again.

The rooms are old and need refurbishment. The room states that it has a refrigerator, but ours was in a wardrobe and wasn't plugged in. The elevator borders on being unsafe and was unusable on the Saturday morning of our stay as someone had not closed the outer door. Check in was via the bar area of the hotel and not signed very well. Whilst it was inexpensive compared to other hotels I wouldn't stay here again.

Noisy in both the daytime (construction site opposite) and nighttime (rooms are above the pub, plus street noise till early hours) and windows couldn't be properly shut. Carpets are threadbare and stained, walls are dirty. Clean linen and friendly staff were the only positive (apart from the location which is great of course). I would not recommend for families.
