I should have done a little more research on the area and the hotel. It was in a dirty area, also full on LGBGT, not that that is a problem in itself, but it was a big surprise. It was only about 15 - 20 minute walk to quality stores and transportation. The staff was very helpful and stored our luggage before and after our stay. Bed was comfortable and clean. A thumping music beat from somewhere close to the hotel kept us awake the first night for quite a while. It didn't happen the second night. However, strong construction noise from next door woke us on both days.

Nice bit noisy
Ok hotel that is dated but slightly upgraded with very large family room which was great. My biggest complaint is the street noise. Friday and Saturday nights are not good here - way too much noise from parties and clubs I guess until all hours of the night. Also a couple adult shops nearby.

The hotel room is fairly good --- large and well-equipped. though the faucet of the sink does not work well. The only problem of the hotel is that it doesn't have any lifts. The upper floor you stay, the harder you do with your suitcases. Wonderful service is that the front desk clerk brings a suitcase up to your room, maybe depending on the gest age and sex. Overall this hotel is reasonable for its price.

Area was great and the staff were amazing. The room was inconvenient though. No hooks in the bathroom. Walls are very thin so you can hear the neighbors and ppl in the hall.

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.

I stayed in this hotel for 9 days. Hotel was taken care very well. Clean and big room. Comfortable bed and pillows. Perfect location and nice staffs. Also there are lots of nice restaurants are near this hotel. Just one thing, this hotel doesn't have a lift. I had two big luggages and I had to move them myself. However I highly recommend this hotel.

Stay was overall good; very large twin room with queen beds, balcony, roomy bathroom, lots of hot water in shower. Negatives; room was very cold in Winter (June), and air-con unit blew tepid air. Uncomfortably cold overnight and no extra/spare doonahs or blankets.
