The Best !
Pros:

O alojamento tem um quarto bem grande e camas super confortáveis . A Sophia que trabalha no Blue e excepcional no seu atendimento . Tudo que precisamos foi atendido em espaço de tempo curto . A forma que o hotel trabalha é muito diferente . Temos os lockers a nossa disposição para qualquer necessidade . Café, chá , talheres , toalhas , lençóis , produtos de higiene . Eu nunca tinha ficado num hotel com esse conceito . Vou dizer que amei .

Cons:

Só precisava de um microwave na cozinha do quarto .

Quiet stay close to Bondi beach
Pros:

Great location within walking distance to the beach and the cafes and shops of Hall Street in Bondi. Receptionist was friendly and the room (I got a free upgrade) was spacious and comfortable with a large balcony and district view. There was a small kitchenette, which was handy if you wanted to eat at home. Shower pressure was good and there was quality toiletries in the bathroom. Bed was big and comfortable and aircon was effective. Hotel is above a bakery and pizza place, so easy to get food.

Cons:

The digital check in is a bit clunky if you want to leave bags early (which they offer) but the phone line is responsive. I feel like there needs to be a security door to the main street. Anyone can come into the building after hours, which for women solo travellers - is not ideal. Free food in the downstairs lounge is a nice touch - but perhaps could be fresher.

A cosy oasis
Pros:

Wonderful spacious room, quiet and calming with a lovely armchair. I'm in Bondi Beach and I just want hang out in my room it was so cosy.

Cons:

Big kitchen bench but no cutlery/crockery. 4 water glasses, 4 coffee mugs, but 1 wine glass and 1 champagne flute. A bit strange.

Basic rooms at an excellent location
Pros:

Amazing location, at the heart of Bondi Beach. Nearby restaurants, cafes, grocery shops, pharmacy, etc. Basic rooms but comfortable mattresses. Decent bathroom. Good coffee machine and pods. Large TV.

Cons:

Only one chair too low for the one tiny table provided, not enough surfaces to place things on, no wardrobes to unpack your clothes into. A bit noisy during weekend evenings from the bustling streets nearby. Roomy kitchen, but under-equipped (no toaster or microwave, no dishes or cutlery, ice maker too dirty to use). Noisy aircon.
