Unfortunately the dining room and bar were closed during my stay, which I wasn't aware of when I booked the room. Additionally there was quite an intense smell of damp around the entire hotel. In my room there was a large damp patch of carpet by the bed that didn't go away during my stay. To the credit of the staff, they supplied an industrial fan to help dry it. Unfortunately this didn't work very well, and the floor remained quite wet. The room smelled of damp the same way the common areas of the hotel did. Also there is no warm lighting in the rooms

This has become my go-to accommodation venue when I come to Sydney. I truly appreciate the scale (as in it's not a huge hotel), the location, the ambience, the efficiency, the friendliness, the thoughtfulness (a bin for recyclables, yes!) and the key provisions (why doesn't every hotel provide a box of tissues?). I'll certainly be staying there again.

Staff at the hotel are wonderful and very helpful. The hotel is in a good convenient location not far from Central station. If you’re booking this hotel because it mentions Laundry facilities, you will need to look elsewhere. No laundry facilities are available on-site. Laundromat within a 10-minute walking distance (near central station)

The accomodation was clean and well looked after, staff were friendly and helpful and the location was very convenient. The only minor fault I could come up with is that sometimes the noises outside of our room could be a little disturbing.

Being so close and walkable to the city and Darling Harbour I was surprised how quiet and peaceful it was. Universities and TAFE right next door means that there are plenty of budget price good Asian eateries and shopping at Haymarket. Accommodation was pleasant and comfortable for our needs.

12 Minute walk to Paddy's Market. Everything is acceptable except that after 10 PM. if you have any guests they need to give their IDs and additional 50 bucks if and when the price of the room at the point of purchase is different for two or more people. Even my University dormitory was more lenient. I am not going to speculate anything here but to set expectations right, this should be mentioned before booking. And it will definitely be better if they call themselves Dormitory rather than hotel.
