Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was underwhelming. It'll do a job for a one night stay if you need to put stop somewhere, but the rooms are paper thin. My room had the giant LED sign right outside which was on all night, keeping my room bright as anything. And the room next door we had a shared window, so you could hear absolutely everything they were saying and doing. The bed was beyond soft, you just fall straight through it. Staff were not the most welcoming and left me feeling uncomfortable about even asking for anything, particularly in their bistro, they had no desire to do anything customer oriented. I wouldn't recommend the stay unless you can't find anything else on your pit stop trip around Sydney.

Newly renovated rooms, super clean with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Great value for money if you don't mind staying above a pub and checking in at the bar.

Great place to stay. Room was clean. The ensuite was retro but cool. The ammenities were great inc milk, milo, and tea. Downstairs there is a bistro that served nice food. The only issue was parking as the hotel bistro and pub customers had taken all the parks by 6pm when I arrived.

Reliable Budget Stay with Great Management

I’ve stayed at this hotel more than five times, and it’s generally a good budget option. The rooms are simple but have the basics—air conditioning, a ceiling fan, bar fridge, tea & coffee facilities and Wi-Fi. The shared bathroom is clean, though a microwave in the room would be a nice addition. The staff are usually friendly wherever I check in, and the manager is truly awesome. I requested a last-minute late check-out, and he was very kind to allow it. Overall, it’s a reliable and affordable place to stay, especially with such accommodating management.
