Perfect location for all that Glebe, Ultimo, Newtown and Sydney Central has to offer without huge $$
Pros:

Proximity to airport, public transport, shopping, cafe’s, restaurants, Sydney central locations and cinemas was excellent.
Breakfast facilities an advantage for those short on time to explore local cafe’s
Excellent housekeeping and on-site laundry facilities an advantage for the long term traveller.

Very very bad
Pros:

Nothing. This should not be rated 4 stars

Cons:

No parking $85 for parking, Bad running water would turn hot then cold, No airconditioning, when asked to present my photo ID inspite of me showing all IDs crossreferencing w my bank account (my wallet was in the car and my husband was going around Sydney looking for parking) the front desk didnt accept it.
The question I wanted to ask the employees too is - why do they work here? Doesn't this affect their personal branding as individuals to work in such a poor state of service. I wish we just went to a back packers because it felt like it but only that this was $180

Hot and humid humid sleep
Pros:

The location was great close to where I needed to be. The bed and bathroom was great quality.

Cons:

The air conditioning didn’t work, the room had no windows, the parking was garbage at best. The security was lacking on the fire egress stair doors. The access to the” parking lot” was via a junk room and dodgy door way that had no access back into the hotel after you had walked through it which requires walking all the way round the the block to re-access the hotel.

The access into the shower was impeded by the shower door that i think was installed to swing the wrong way…

A clean and comfortable stay in a very convenient location.
Pros:

Great location, very convenient for Broadway Shopping Centre and close to Victoria Park. The room was clean, comfortable, and I slept well during my stay.

Cons:

The room felt a little small, the air conditioning could not be adjusted, and the walls were quite thin so I could sometimes hear noise from the next room.

Perfect for being so handy to the University
Pros:

Staff are super helpful and courteous, welcoming and friendly.

Cons:

It’s difficult for taxis or uber to drop off or collect from directly out front thanks to strictly enforced traffic rules…
