Studio pour des jeunes , mais un peu chers
Pros:

Le lit est confortable . Et la situation a Bondi est bonne .
Les contacts - par mail uniquement - sont efficaces .

Cons:

Ce n’est PAS un hôtel . Il s’agit de location de studio avec kitchenette . Aucun service hôtelier , aucun accueil, aucun ménage ….
L’entrée est abominable : un couloir avec des ballots de draps …

Very good in all aspects.
Pros:

Myself and my friend were both very happy with the blue hotel. The location was very good, the young lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful and we would stay here again.

Cons:

Communal toilets were not great, but that didnt bother us much.

Bondi Blue experience amazing
Pros:

Very modernist style
We had a very good first experience in an hotel without check in desk.
Staff was in contact by text message to arrange the check in and gave us the steps to get into the room.
The room has a small kitchen to prepare your own breakfast or you have a space down stairs with facilities and some food provided by the property.

Cons:

For some reason my room contract didn’t include the clean service and I didn’t have anything inside to make the clean by my own.

Disappointing
Pros:

It was a reasonable distance from the beach and shops

Cons:

Decor was shabby, broken towel rail, broken handle on the shower, air conditioning broke down. No staff, only email and text contact. Therefore it’s not really a hotel as advertised

Pros:

Muy cómodo el lugar, bien ubicado

Cons:

El sistema tan tecnológico me supera un poco. Tuve que bajar aplicacion para abrir la pieza. Es innovador, pero no me salió tan fácil al principio.
