Seamless check-in and check-out. Spotlessly clean room and bathroom. Comfortable bed. However, the toilet seat was missing, the bathroom exhaust didn’t work and the TV didn’t work. That said, I got the most amazing price. Now I know why! But given the knock down price, I really can’t complain.

Jason

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The hours reception is "open" are too short and often unstaffed. The staff were Chinese with English obviously being their second language. That's not their fault, but Australian travellers should not require a translator to receive basic services in Australia. The night manager is rude and difficult to understand especially on the phone. The room cleaning staff were polite, and their English was much better than the night manager. One of the three elevators is not working but there is not an out of order sign. The middle elevator is covered in graffiti and stinks from a joint jammed in the wall. The stair wells are a filthy mess. The doors and walls are covered in graffiti. Rubbish is strewn about the floors and stairs.

The location is great. However, I hope the things in the rooms will be more updated. All are working well, just that the AC was too loud and there was a lingering cigarette smell in the room when we checked in. I would come back but hopefully it’d be better next time.

I had a comfortable bed and a warm shower. Essentials. Extras: tubes of toiletries, a wine glass, clean crockery and linen. However, TV was hard to operate and pixated, but I got my ABC and SBS channels eventually. I was not game to turn on the heater as it was dusty and very old. Several power points did not work. The room was quiet and my stay ended up being very pleasant. Thank you.

Great location. Good for the budget traveller. Probably not the best spot if you are a light sleeper due to the construction works across the street or if you are accustomed to staying in modern hotels.
