The staff were super friendly and helpful and the room was in really good condition and nice and clean. It’s in a great location near some nice neighbourhoods to check out. I really enjoyed my stay here. The only thing that might annoy some guests is that is is quite noisy as it’s next to a busy road and above a pub but they provide ear plugs and whilst some people might not have enjoyed hearing the karaoke night going on at the pub downstairs, I personally found it really entertaining! Would definitely recommend.

Liked: - staff are very good ,- beddings are neat & the linens - enjoyed going up to the second floor & down the stairs which helped exercise our knees as no lift provided - walking distance to the Darling harbour & fish market Didn’t like: - didn’t get a decent sleep due to the noise of the passing vehicles on a Saturday night & can hear people shouting & talking until 2am - We have to unplug the TV to plug the water jug - the room is old. has only fan - no aircon, - the room door is stiff & has to be pushed & pull with strength - unable to use the little round table inside the room because it’s wobbly. Please check for safety purposes - toilet & shower are communal & shared with others who’s staying from the same floor- no shower & toilet inside the room - the small stainless bin in the toilet/shower is rusty & should be thrown away - no handwashing liquid provided in the handwashing container

Not ideal. Very noisy no insulation. TV could not hold a station. Shower items left by previous guests not removed(used soap etc) no staff outside pub hours, so limited help. I guess the earplugs I found in the kitchenette should have been the warning sign.
