Had a great stay. Was in Sydney

Had a great stay. Was in Sydney for the heat wave so was a nice welcome to get back to the very cool hotel foyer! If anything room was a bit small - 2 rooms would have been nice but I guess that is all relevant to cost. A little old/shabby and in need of a make-over but very clean and great service. Thankyou.

Well located near rail station

Well located near rail station and bus routes on George St. Very clean rooms, helpful staff. Some construction noise at this time with street front rooms; not a problem as you'll be out all day. Not ritzy but excellent value

Location of this hotel is excellent

Location of this hotel is excellent for access to Central Railway Station. Other transport is also round the corner, easy to get anywhere. We have stayed here before and were happy to return. Staff are very helpful, breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced with the discount voucher we were given. Smallish room but in keeping with price so no complaints. Good clean budget hotel.
