Stayed in this hotel expecting it to be similar to the photos displayed on website. This was not the case. The room was very small and very crammed. The facilities were not up to a decent standard the whole Room needs to be renovated and cleaned thoroughly. The quality of sleep we got was very poor due to pipes in the room banging and the air conditioning system making extreme noise when on. Overall very disappointed with the room and hindered the experience of Sydney .

This hotel was a hidden gem in sydney. Easy to get around. And right in the heart of sydney's alternative culture scene. At the top floor which was extremely private with a great view but had to climb Three flights of stairs, But so worth it.

It was ok for a cheap hotel except the shower. No exhaust fan has left the bathroom roof covered in black mould and the paint peeling off. The shower itself was also very dirty. It didn’t look like it had ever had been scrubbed clean. The walls and windows are thin so you can hear every noise around the building from people coming up the stairs, to people talking in the street below. Not a problem if you’re a heavy sleeper.

I think the whole area will be torn down very soon for new structures. Hotel is like a Hostel. Bare minimum care for building. Steep stairs. No elevator. However, if you are just looking to have a bed, & hot & cold water. This is the place for the price.

The instructions to check in after hours were easy to follow. There was a distinct odour when we walked in, which was not pleasant. Must have had a run on the wrong side as it was very noisy on the street and couldn't close the window. It was ok for a few hours sleep as we checked in late and left early.

The room was dirty, sheets were stained, something in the bed made us itchy, shower was mouldy, ironing board didn't work, the walls were very thin & all could be heard from neighbours, same with hearing others using the timber stairs as there are no lifts. The tv remote could only be operated from 1 metre away, poor lighting, only 2 X 20ml UHT milk for coffee / tea. There are no face towels, hand towels or shower gel / shampoo but they did have one small bar of soap. The reception desk is supposed to be open from 10am to 5pm but when we arrived at 3pm there was a sign saying back in 10 minutes. I tried ringing the hotel after 15 minutes but no answer. Also no response when we left a voice mail 3 days prior asking about luggage storage, and no reply to our email asking the same. As it turns out, they do store luggage in the office, but when we arrived and the office was unattended anyone could have grabbed the bags there. Outside of the hours of 10am to 5pm you used a code to access the main entrance in, but we noticed that the self closer on the door doesn't work properly and the door didn't lock behind us without pushing it closed. Location was good though, and they had extra rolls of good quality toilet paper so there were a couple of 's.

It's a walk-up building so take that into account. It's written in the description so you can't say you didn't know. It's handy for the eastern suburbs and the city. My room was facing Oxford street so a lot of traffic noise. The room was tiny. A nice bathroom but the shower had no shelving for soap or anything else, it all had to go on the floor. The power sockets were in weird locations also and the room could use a clock. The TV set-up was hard to understand.

Really needed a clean. Orange scum and mould in shower. Bit of bleach/jif some elbow grease is all that would take. Good location, but noisy. Depends on what you are there for I guess.

Walking distance to the metro/subway. Eateries all around the area. The room wasn't in the best condition. Carpet has patches coming off the floor. Torn curtains. Shower water pressure wasn't strong. Cockroaches roaming in the room. Dusty room.

The location is great. We can walk to see some museums, the royal garden, and some art galleries. It is also near several restaurants. However, the room is not soundproof so I could hear other people talking or walking. The bathroom does not have any hook or bar to hang the towel. I wish they provided some tissue paper as well.

Unfortunately this stay was not as I had expected. The corridors were smelly, front door entrance was kept unlocked which was a safety issue. There’s also no elevator so good luck getting to higher floors. Cockroaches were through the hotel in common areas and in my bedroom. Room was cramped and did not give the feeling of cleanliness. Bed was just passable for comfort. Location is good because it is in a central spot but Oxford St is also a highway for ambulances with sirens speeding past very often and drunken street noise. Air conditioner worked well and was a new unit which was nice.

The location of the property is great for exploring Sydney. Although, the section of Oxford Street it is on is a bit seedy, there are nice restaurants away from Oxford street. The rooms are small and could be cleaner.
