Well situated but charging a $250 refundable fee in addition to accommodation was unexpected. The place is very old and does not rate compared to other hotels nearby. No dining in house and no cleaning on weekends.

We walked in and straight out. There was black mold on the ceiling in reception. Everything was battered. It did not look like the pictures on the advertisement. I have never been so horrified or embarrassed that I had booked this place. They did give me my deposit back straight away. I can see why they make the booking non refundable because it is nothing like what is advertised. I bet this does not appear in the ratings

Criterion is in a really good position. Close to central city shops restaurants, cafe's etc. We use it as a late stay over flying interstate for work but its in a great spot. Has 24hr checkin. 11am checkout. It all works really well for us. Its a little noisy at times is all id say but overall good value accommodation.

Property very old and in need of maintenance and updating. I think the pricing is a bit high. I've stayed at other hotels approx same price and rooms were much better. Basic rooms, clean linen daily which was a plus. Good location. Plenty of nearby cafes for meals.

Affordable accommodation

We often stay at the criterion because its reasonably priced and convenient with its 24hr checkin. We arrived very late due to major delays on our flights. Check-In is quick. The desk is manned 24hrs .11am check out suits us too. We had a flight the next day. Overall, its nothing fancy and can be a little noisy but an affordable place to rest your head for 1 night.
