Disliked: Amenities
Pay some extra money and stay somewhere else if you don’t want to breathe in cigarette smoke or if you want some sleep. The room windows all opened out onto the smoking deck - what a treat- especially when traveling with kids- love a good ciggy for the family floating in through the louvre windows that you can’t close. On friday night we were then ‘treated’ to the piano man - live music until 1 am which felt like it was under the floor. Seriously, why rent the rooms out as accommodation when there is no chance for anyone to breathe air or get sleep?

Great place to hang out

This hotel is a fun place to hangout with convenient access to local transportation, bronte beach, restaurants, and a convenience store. I didn't expect a late night piano man to be performing (I was trying to sleep early and wake up early to see the sun rise) but I enjoyed his performance! The rooms are not far from the restaurant/bar area and outdoor seating area so if people are being noisy you will likely hear them from your room.

Slecht!

Was een teleurstellend verblijf. Herkende niets van de foto's. Bed had een grote kuil in het midden, waardoor je vanaf de zijkant naar het midden rolde. Het stonk in de kamer. Lakens waren vies en vanaf het moment dat ik in bed lag, kreeg ik jeuk. Ik ben uiteindelijk op een eigen sarong gaan liggen met een eigen strandlaken over me heen. Echter, de volgende ochtend had ik toch overal bultjes. Bah! Verder is de lokatie niet top aan een hoek waar vijf drukke verkeersstraten samenkomen. En boven de pub qua geluidsoverlast, al was ik er op een doordeweekse avond en was het stil na 0.00 uur. Badkamer was, hoewel in oude staat, wel schoon. Dus dat was fijn. Ik zou er echter nooit meer overnachten! Zeker niet voor het geld dat ik er voor heb moeten betalen.

Great atmosphere but leaving the windows open in the heat let the sirens and motorbike noise in. Also too light - curtains could be more block out. The mattress had been put on the bed upside down so the wires were just under the fabric.

Handy but that's all.

Handy to my function but no attention paid to guest facility, dirty linen in bathroom, generally unclean. Suggest the landlord concentrates on running the nice bar on ground floor, close the accomodation!!

Not a place to stay.

I checked in late on a Saturday night in July, so quite cold. My room had no heating, no working TV, no electric blanket and the bathroom was dirty. The bed was OK and seemed freshly made, but no electric blanket and the doona was lightweight so I was not warm. The music in the bar didn't stop until after midnight. I expected some noise being a pub hotel, but the noise level was pretty high. I was very glad to checkout in the morning.

Noise yes, windows vibrated with traffic noise but ear plugs helped. Curtains let sunrise morning light in, no block out at all, no way could sleep in. Balcony had used cigarette butts and was very unclean. Shower mouldy, towel rain broken, hot water on one night, cold another tepid another. Room smelled. minimal housekeeping equated to no housekeeping over four nights, bin full, no restocking of tea/coffee/milk. Fridge was good. Sheets clean, blankets/doona stained or dirty. Liked the old feel.

Good location - old hotel and maintenance issues

We were worried about staying due to reviews, but it was clean and in good location. Staff were very friendly, pub was good and we had a great walk to centennial park. Overall it was a fine place to stay, old and needs work, but clean which is fine. It was also a lot cheaper than anything else around, so I guess you get what you pay for.
