Great staff & no troubles with accommodation, it is old, but i love old, it is tidy & comfortable.. The atmosphere of the place is awesome with a great view over oxford st.. My only problem with the whole stay is, there is no parking at all & as far as im concerned, if you pay for a room, you get a space for your car aswell, city or not..

Great location, close walk to CBD, circular queue, china town etc. The actual hotel unfortunately was not to what we expected, dirty common area on our floor, shared showers and restrooms were dirty most of the time, twice we walked onto, “mystery liquid” at the entrance with a very strong fowl smell. Good option for the price in the area if all you need is a pillow under your head. Don’t expect any AC and the window doesn’t not fully open.

Small double room, best advertised for 1 person. Fire doors were always propped open. This was worrisome given the age of the building.

Great spot in downtown Sydney for a great price. Despite having shared bathrooms and kitchen everything was clean and orderly. However the bar and check in combined did seem a bit understaffed however this did not seriously effect service.

The room was dirty. Toothpaste spit still in the basin and all surfaces sticky and dusty. Street noise was not an issue for, as my room was to the back. But still lots of other noise. On hot days the room was unbearable just a fan on the sealing. No lift so lots of stairs. Music in house till early morning in the last night there was music coming from a speaker in the hall till after 1am No place to get some rest

The room was decent however every key to every hotel room is THE SAME!! Major security breach !! Made me feel so unsafe that I had to barricade the door every night and bring a safety lock of my own ! Also the shower is so tiny that there is not enough space from the shower door to the outside door, so you have to get undressed and dressed inside the actual shower. It’s a shame as if they increased security and renovated it could be rather nice !!

Beware it is shared toilet and shower. That was not made clear when booking. Room is fine. 100USD was by far the best deal in the city for a busy Saturday. Super noisy so if you’re planning on sleeping early you will hear the bar downstairs and lots of people outside. I want to sleep at 3AM so it was fine. Bar downtown had good meal deals.
