Pros:

The rooms felt claustrophobic, with an unpleasant smell that made the stay uncomfortable. The shared toilets were also inconvenient and did not meet expectations. Overall, the experience was disappointing, and improvements in cleanliness, ventilation, and room comfort are needed.

Cons:

There was some typical smell from carpet which was irritating

Pros:

Great price, location.

Cons:

Pathetic experience at Hotel Cessnock.
Pros:

The English guy who was at the reception was friendly and emphatic and came across genuine and willing to help.

Cons:

The Hotels management of my booking incorrectly and allocating my confirmed room to someone else.
Very pathetic and shallow treatment of a customer without any apology or sense of remorse.

Pros:

Air conditioning was very effective as it was very hot. Bathroom was reasonably close to our room. It was adequate for our needs after the concert as all other accommodation was extremely expensive.

Cons:

The Hotel only closed at 3am, but this didn't really matter in our situation as we only got back at 12.30am and needed to wind down after the concert so technically this is not didn't you like as such. It really depends on your reasons for staying.
