I didn’t like how my room key constantly did not work and had to go to the front desk every single day to get a newer one provided to me so I could enter my room.

Great staff, room and bed comfortable. Bathroom a little tired but does the trick
I had excellent stay in this hotel. The location is great and the staff were friendly and courteous. The room was basic (it is budget after all) but it was clean and comfortable. I would recommend it to others and stay again.

The breakfast was awesome, the room was set up well. Not overly big however the showers did soak the whole bathroom and the sand was not cleaned up from our room daily with the housekeeping.
The Ibis is a wonderful budget hotel! I was very pleased with every aspect of the hotel stay, the cleanliness, the courtesy and professionalismof the staff, the location, overall it was just more than I expected. I highly recommend for the budget traveler or traveler staying a night or two in Sydney.
Room was simple but clean. Staff were accommodating and friendly at all times. Great location - walk 15mins to city centre. Lots of wonderful eating options nearby. Uber was a great option for airport transfers and for the stadium event.
The two guys at reception were great it was a hot day and one of them gave us a cold bottle of water the gentleman who did the night was very polite and very helpful
