Good hotel but poor cleanliness
Pros:

The breakfast buffet, although options were limited, was lovely. The aesthetics of the hotel & the rooms overall are lovely with a cafe on the ground floor and a communal kitchen on the 1st floor which is great, including a robotic coffee vending machine.

Cons:

The cleanliness was poor, lots of dust and grime which you wouldn't expect considering how much I paid.

Είμαι πολύ ευχαριστημένη και προτείνω το κατάλυμα.
Pros:

Το προσωπικό ήταν πολύ ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό. Πολύ βολική η ρεσεψιόν επί 24ωρης βάσης. Έλαβα σημαντική βοήθεια με πρόβλημα που αντιμετώπισα με το τηλέφωνό μου.
Πολύ καλό το πρωινό και η περιοχή.

Cons:

Θα μπορούσε να μειωθεί η υγρασία στο δωμάτιο και να παρέχεται υπηρεσία καθαριότητας λίγο πιο συχνά.

Mooi en net hotel, service viel alleen tegen
Pros:

Schone nieuwe hotelkamer

Cons:

We hebben de eerste nacht over moeten slaan omdat onze vlucht was gecanceld vanwege de situatie in het Midden Oosten. We hebben om een restitutie gevraagd maar deze helaas niet gekregen. Ee week later wilde weer nog een keer 2 nachten in dit hotel boeken en vroegen of we de misgelopen nacht konden doorzetten maar ook dat deden ze niet. We hebben om die reden dus toch iets anders geboekt. Deze service vinden we erg onvriendelijk.

Overall good hotel and amazing location, but not convinced it's real value for what you pay.
Pros:

Great location. Right next to Bondi Junction and close to Bondi beach. Easy to travel to the airport or the city. The hotel looks fresh and modern. They really made the most with the available space.
Rooms are a bit tight, but well equipped and modern.

Cons:

Seemed like majority of the staff members were still on training, which isn't my complaint. It just meant longer waiting times to get helped.
As for breakfast - it would help business travelers a lot if you could serve breakfast from 6:30am. At 7am, there was already a que of people waiting, and then they were still not ready. I had to be at a conference by 7:15 already, so didn't get the benefit of the included breakfast.
