Nice short-term studio solution
Pros:

The location was perfect, room size and equipment was great, but the common facilities were average.
The potential is huge, with few changes and more hostel-oriented policies this venue could truly shine.
I suggest having an in-house laundry machine and drier, and for god’s sake lower the price of the items in the vending machine, the current ones are nonsense.

Cons:

The kitchen was basically unfurnished and the rooms were not provided of a basket/box to easily move the personal kitchenware to and from the kitchen.

I was staying there to see Sir Tony Robinson at the Newcastle Civic theatre. Accommodation is close to Civic theatre. O
Pros:

Close to light rail. I was in a room with king single bed. And not just a bar fridge but a large refrigerator. On top of fridge was a microwave. Even a kitchenette to use. Bed was very comfortable. Hanging space and drawers in rooms are also plentiful. Great bathroom.

Cons:

Microwave was on top of fridge which was taller than me. I’m only 4 foot and 11 and 3 quarter inches in height which made it very difficult for cooking. I had to move the microwave closer and open the freezer door so I could use the microwave buttons. My suggestion: Pack yourself a footstool from K-Mart so that you are as short as me you’ll be able to use the microwave. No bed light supplied on table next to bed. Possibly an oversight by staff.

A short term house replacement
Pros:

The location and the freedom that such venue offers are its strongest points.
Room was large although dusty as, and provided cutlery and plates were ok.

Cons:

The kitchen was basically unfurnished and there was no common laundry machine nor vacuum cleaner.
Also, some guests were very disrespectful of the common areas and of the other guests.
