The hotel doesnt have a normal reception, and its done via the bar. which is not open until 10am, so if you arrive before that, you a bit stuck with you bags etc. No hotel lift (so u have to carry your suitcase, bag up two flights of steep stairs.

Great location, (however this does get a bit loud at night over the weekend, but this is a central city place, so to be expected) It has a bar under the rooms, so this is handy if you want a drink etc.

The Stairs( my fault, hurt my back the weekend before) Fair bit of road noise but calmed pretty quickly

Convenient, comfortable short stay close to everything

No after-hours service and no contract from the hotel. Arrived after hours, and even though we notified them of our time of arrival. The hotel was all locked up, and we did not have a phone call as to how to get our key to get in. It was only luck that a staff member saw us on the cameras at the front door. She then came down to help us. Other than that, the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.

Price and location.

The staff were super super friendly, but because of the hotel being right outside one of the main roads all you can hear when you go to sleep is homeless people fighting and the garbage trucks at 2 am, also one of our ceiling fans didn't work

The fact the hotel had a late license to the early morning hours…creating a noise factor and disturbing sleep.

The position of the establishment for our needs was very good. Friendly staff. Good meals at reasonable prices.

The plug sockets in the room needed attention. We were travelling with children and they didn't look safe to me.

The hotel is in a great location at a budget price. Staff were super friendly and the bar was fab for a drink after a long day sightseeing.

Discovered a bar fridge in the wardrobe but hard to open as it didn't quite fit in there. No air conditioning but the window opened which helped.

Excellent location with great food etc. close by. Good value bar meals downstairs and cheap happy hour drinks! Quiet despite being a pub. Good access to public transport. Terrific staff. Nice older style inner city pub.

There are flights of stairs but thankfully there was always someone willing to help us with luggage

Location & room was good.We were able to leave our luggage in the hotel bar.

I would like the floors to be vacuumed thoroughly under the bed and in the rooms. I did not feel that the room cleanliness was of high standard. The ceiling fan was of poor quality and did not spin at high speed. Meaning there was no cooler air available and people were resorting to leaving the room door open a crack to create air flow.

The staff were very helpful. They carried the suitcases up 3 flights of stairs as there are not lifts. Overall very basic but cheap and central and mostly enjoyable.

No AC. Street noise with the window open. No elevator.

The staff were very helpful with getting my luggage to my room and answering questions about directions to specific businesses I needed to get to.

My room smelt quite bad of Baileys, that had been spilled over time. This left of putrid smell. I’m sure anyone could have smelt this even the staff members themselves.

It was exceptionally close to everything around the city that I needed to be in contact with especially walking distance from great A class restaurants

There was a smell in the hallways and bathrooms, the stairs are a killer to climb with suitcases, the fan only just kept the room bareable.

It was easy to find and the staff were lovely. The beds were clean.

Room doors need soft closers so they aren't slammed all night.

Dirty, smelly, hot, grotty. Budget doesn't have to be like this. Power cut out so I was showering in the dark, air con stopped working and I was more hot & sweaty afterwards and not feeling clean when I had to go out. The pub downstairs appears to have all its resources put in there - staff, air con etc. Read the other reviews - that hole in the ceiling that was meant to be temporary is still not fixed. The bathrooms were so nicely renovated but dirty - sanitary bin overflowing, unclean and the carpets everywhere were dirty with holes and damage everywhere. The sheets I slept in felt unclean and the doona cover was laid on the bed with the cover laid on top of it! Dust everywhere. Mirrors and lights that a simple wipe over would make a difference. There is no care or pride in what could be a lovely place. I would be embarrassed to take someone's money for this "experience".

The check-in team were lovely. The towels were clean.

Good for people travel light, as there’s no lifts or elevators available. A tough climb with huge suitcases.

Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff.
