Pros:

bed was amazingly comfy, once all the bedding had been replaced on the bed properly. The ability to black out the room was fantastic.

Cons:

Lack of storage space. Could create a over head storage over the bed similar to a bunk section but for storage. Remote for the television did not work

Very disappointing stay at Ibis Budget Sydney. The room was extremely small and lacked basic amenities such as a microwa
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Very disappointing stay at Ibis Budget Sydney. The room was extremely small and lacked basic amenities such as a microwave and kettle. Even for a budget hotel, I expected a minimum level of comfort and convenience.

The worst part was the bathroom and toilet. They were unbelievably cramped, and the toilet space was so tight that it was difficult to sit comfortably. The layout feels poorly designed and not suitable for an adult to use comfortably.

I also feel the hotel is not fully transparent in its advertising, as the bathroom and toilet are not properly shown in the photos online. If I had seen how small they actually were, I would have chosen a different hotel.

The low price does not justify the lack of facilities and the uncomfortable room design. I would not stay here again and would not recommend it unless you only need the absolute cheapest place to sleep.

a little less than expected but at a budget price you get that
Pros:

Good location for travellers not wanting to mess with inner city traffic and keep going the next day on the road out of town.

Cons:

Even though it was a budget price, i'd expected more than a small cabin-like toilet shower combo that wasn't that great, as everything gets wet in the little cubicle.
