Disappointing
Cons:

No air conditioning in the room, Cracked plaster on the walls. No wardrobe, just some knobs on the wall and some very second hand coat hangers. Considering the cost of $350 per night, I don't think hit was good value!

Goede prijs-kwaliteit
Pros:

Ruime kamer, netjes. Goed bed.
Vriendelijk personeel beneden in café-restaurant en prima eten.
Prima buurt. Afstand naar centrum valt erg mee.

Cons:

Geen dubbele beglazing, dus je hoorde het, overigens beperkte, verkeer wel erg goed.

Suitable for our needs and likely to return
Pros:

Location and cleanliness of room

Cons:

Needs a wardrobe to hang and store your clothes. Perhaps also consider supplying tea and coffee facilities as well as glasses for a drink of water.

Poorly run, budget hotel, masquerading as something more.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Recently renovated, however already looking poorly maintained. Poor water pressure, provided soap was an econo sized bottle on the shower floor. A bed and, one armchair and two bedside tables are the only furniture, no table or cupboard. Hooks on the wall served as somewhere to hang clothes. No internal fridge, kettle, coffee etc. The room seems to be above the very noisy ventilation fan, which runs all night. To top it off we arrived after hours and were not provided check in instructions or a means to get our key. There was no after hours number. We had to find somewhere else to sleep at midnight.

Fine place
Pros:

Comfortable spacious room, nice area, 10 min walking to metro or ferry. Although shared, bathrooms are clean and functional. Haven’t seen anyone (no staff and no guests) in 4 days. Very nice little cafe across the road.

Cons:

No staff…if you have a question or inquiry there’s no one to assist you. I met an old gentlemen at the entrance not able to get his room key to check in from the key box, because its battery was off. That’s not nice

A COMFORTABLE CLASSIC SYDNEY ART DECO PUB
Pros:

The Blues Point Hotel is a classic Sydney art deco pub nicely located about half way between North Sydney station and McMahons Point ferry wharf. Both of these locations have good transport connections to central Sydney. I had asked for a quiet room and my allocated room 8 fitted that description. It also had a private balcony which was a nice bonus. The room was spacious and nicely decorated and the double bed was very comfortable.

Cons:

I had booked for 4 nights commencing on Boxing Day. Unfortunately the hotel - which is usually open daily from 11am to midnight - was closed on Boxing Day. The hotel had emailed to advise me that my keys would be in a locked box near the side door and had provided the box code. When I arrived at 2pm to check in I found that the box was not operating. Another guest was in the same boat. I tried to contact the hotel and could hear the allocated phone number ringing unanswered inside the locked hotel. My 3 text messages also went unanswered. In the circumstances I had to find another hotel for that night. It turned out that the battery was dead on the locked box. The following day I was able to pick up the keys at 11am when the hotel opened and I was given an immediate refund of 1 night's prepaid accommodation. However, the inconvenience was huge. Had it not been for this locked box debacle I would have given the Blues Point Hotel a score of 9.

Not again
Pros:

Rooms okay. Fan didn’t work in room. Toilets outdated.

Cons:

Couldn’t let me check in on desired day so spent an entire afternoon running around trying to find somewhere to sleep. Wasted money and time.

Pros:

Las vistas, limpio, que tuviera bar/restaurante por si no querías caminar y poder cenar allí.

Cons:

El.colchon de muelles, un poco blando para mi y ningún armario/burro donde guardar/colocar las cosas (tres percheros en la pared hay).
En resumen una habitación muy sencilla para el precio elevado que he pagado.
