Harp Hotel
The room was clean, the beds comfortable, and the sound of the pub was significantly more reduced in the room. Fantastic! The only reason I don’t give a 5 star review is because I tend not to trust 5 star reviews

Mantra Wollongong
They don’t move the blinds to clean so there was dead bugs by the windows and under the bed was very dirty. Needs a Reno and a good clean! Spacious though and good if you have a dog.
