Room was perfectly comfortable for the price. Bed, clothes hanging space, sink, bathroom down the hall. Unfortunately it was very cold and no spare blankets. One sheet and a thin blanket on the bed. I had to put my coat over me to sleep. Shared bathroom space was in ok condition. Not great water pressure. Perfect for a single night before an early flight or if you need to be in the area early the next day.

Booked online and was given the option of paying then or when I arrived. I chose the latter only to discover 2 days before arriving that they did not take my booking or reserve my room. I had 48 hrs to find alternative accomodation. I will NEVER use this site to book ANYTHING ever again nor will I choose to stay at this hotel.

I was very satisfied with the experience for a simple overnight stay. A typical suburban pub with basic shared facilities. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and if you like a classic old tiled shared bathroom from a different era in time, then this place is for you! Don't ever change it. The hotel is on a main road so you may like to pack some ear plugs. Frequent trains link Sydney CBD and buses with Sydney Airports being a short walk away. I'll most certainly stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room looked fantastic, great size and comfortable beds. There are shared toilets straight across the hall. It was gig night and there is no air conditioning. The windows would not close and the road is very noisy. The traffic lights made the “walk” noise all night. There is a huge advertising billboard straight outside the window that shines light into the room all night. The blinds do not work well at all so it’s like staying in Tokyo.

Only needed to stay one night, but it was fine. Bedroom small, but clean and tidy, with tv, fridge, aircon etc. (but no chair). Shared toilet / bathroom not ideal, and the (one!) urinal was partially blocked. Liked the bar downstairs though! Great café next door for breakfast.

The staff were all very friendly. Towels were clean. And the hotel is what it is, one step up from a backpackers or hostel. You have your own room and share a shower with the whole floor. I brought flip flops (jandals) to wear in the shower so I did not pick up any sort of fungus. My issue with my stay was that the carpet in the room was absolutely disgusting. It was stained and a bit sticky - I had to wear my shoes the whole time and then clean the soles of my shoes once I left the room. There is no air other than a ceiling fan, so I opened the window. It was very heavy and would not stay up on its own, slamming down very hard. It was a miracle the glass did not break which I would have been charged for. The only thing available in the room to keep the window ajar was the trash can. It was tricky to hold the window up with one hand to then place the trash can underneath to hold the window open. I was also warned not "lock" my door from the inside or I would be permanently locked inside, that the latch itself would protect anyone from entering. When I got to my room, there was tape all over the door lock holding it together, especially inside the room. I did not feel safe in any way. This should have all been disclosed when renting the room and there should have been a discount on the room as well. Bait and switch as what is marketed on the site is not what I received.

The rooms are decent sized, but no aircon, sound proofing was no good as the room are right above the bar and they have seating outside so all the noise came through the windows as they have to be opened to-try and cool the room
