Simple, Clean, and Welcoming

I stayed at this motor lodge for 2.5 weeks while my bathroom was being renovated, and it was a really comfortable and convenient place to stay. The room was simple but had everything I needed, and the shared bathrooms were always clean and well-kept. What stood out most was the friendly and welcoming staff—they made the stay much easier and more pleasant. Really appreciated the hospitality!

It's a great, affordable place to crash that has a bit of an old school backpacker vibe to it (i.e. shared bathrooms, kitchens, etc) but it's still quite a good place to stay. Looking forward to coming back!

The place was a nice change from anodyne modern hotels. Also the shared kitchen was well equipped. Conversely, the stairs down were narrow and dangerous. Overall though, a pleasant enough stay.

Position Position Position

I was in a downstairs bedroom. Which although the building was old was very clean. There was some noise from people upstairs as it is a multi-story building, however overall the experience was good. It is perfectly placed. There is free street parking (if you are good at parallel parking) and the 12 minute ferry to Circular Quay is only a 3 minute walk.
