Bad Service! or no service,!
Cons:

I was in W.A and booked a room with ibis budget and was told that the check in times were restricted to 10.pm. I tried to call through hotel and only got a recorded message about the check in times, again. I knew that my flight arrived in Sydney at 10.15pm and I would not to be able to get to the hotel before 10pm. I called 6 times from Perth to get check in details after 10pm. Each call has a swerved by the recorded. Message about the. Normal check in time, and an addage, that staed " if you are checking in after hours, to check their website. Which only contained the same message as the recording.
I did not want to be stuck in Sydney in the rain so I made alternative accommodation.
This hotel obviously don't want customers that can't meet their check in rules. Very disappointed..

Could’ve been way better
Pros:

Its location

Cons:

Everything else
The bathroom door doesn’t open if it’s closed. The sink is in the other side of the room. The room is so small barely could open my bags in it.

Get what you pay for - It was precisely what we wanted for airport access.
Pros:

It was nice and close to the airport. The price was fair enough for what was offered. Enjoyed breakfast

Cons:

Aircon didn't really work at all, though it made plenty of noise. Thankfully wasn't too hot or cold.

Pros:

Very good for budget. Clean and neat. It’s just the pillows are too fluffy 😆
I’d ask for them to put less fluffy ones next time.
So far everything is excellent!

Pros:

Clean basic, budget accommodation with access to public transport. The hotel is fine for a short stay, when you just need a bed.

Cons:

I had to negotiate to keep my room. A day before my booking the hotel moved me without consultation to another location (Mascot) which did not suit my needs. I had to negotiate with the venue to keep me at hotel as per my booking. The hotel did listen to me, and maintained my booking.
