Lack of space. Surprised by the bedroom layout (sink situated out in the bedroom and toilet in the shower...gotta be careful not to slip on the wet tile floor and a wet toilet, not pleasant). No AC, but a portable fan is provided. Overall clean and very convenient for local transportation.

We stayed here one night mostly because it was close to Kings Cross and many restaurants/shops. It was ideal for a quiet place to sleep and recoup. It was not fancy at all, but solid for the price. Staff was very helpful. We'd book again.

Room was ready early which was much appreciated and the location to the park was quite nice. Unfortunately there was a strong mildew oder in the room which only worsened over the stay. Also major construction very close.

Small but conveniently located for Kings Cross Station. I just needed a bed for the night and it met my needs. Ground floor room, but some creaky floorboards in the room above, as well as corridor chatter disturbed the otherwise very quiet room, which was unfortunate. Still, it served its intended purpose.
