Ok if you’re desperate
Pros:

Location

No A/C , can’t open window to get air in. Just a ceiling fan on stinking hot day. Basically like being in fan forced oven

Fantastic location and good for the price, would stay here again despite the issues.
Pros:

Room was about what I expected from pub accommodation and for the price. Super ideal location, right around the corner from the ICC and nearby to shopping and food options. Could go downstairs for drinks at night and then just go upstairs which was awesome.

Cons:

It was fairly loud, which I did expect given the location and enthusiastic karaoke downstairs - they clearly know this as ear plugs are supplied and there's not really a way around it. The room couldve been cleanlier, there was an empty bottle under our bed when we arrived. My main issue and one I think needs to be addressed is that there is no sanitary bins in any of the bathrooms. Only one shower at the very end of the hall had any bin, and it didn't have a lid. For any ladies staying here on their periods, just be aware.

It might be fine for your budget, but comforts are few
Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

Boiling hot in the Sydney heat. No air conditioning. Windows opened fine, but that means very noisy street. The room was pretty basic. Shared bathroom just passable.

Should’ve been made aware of the noise, otherwise it wasn’t really worth the money
Pros:

It worked for the night

Cons:

I was not made aware of the noise until 2 am - the ear plugs were the only saving grace. I also assumed the bathroom was part of the room/ it was an ensuite - this was not the case.
