Food
Showers shared
Close to things
Location and price were great
It can be noisy on weekends
The location and the fact they had a waterboiler in the room
the hygiene was not good, the bed was very old and the shared bathroom was not daily cleaned. There was also a very strong bad smell in the hallway like they never open a window
The staff were lovely.
The cleaner was still doing the rooms at check in time. When we got into our room it was still dirty. Pictures shown don't look like the room. Bed was broken underneath so ended up with a sore back.
The staff is amazing and good food
The smiling faces and atmosphere.
The carpet in the hall smelled very musty.
The room was clean and tidy with comfy mattresses everything you'd expect for the price
For a shared bathroom to only have 1 toilet got a bit crowded a couple of times
Initially the restaurant was appealling BUT that deteriorated after a few visits, see next question. The staff served well in restaurant & bar.
We found an excellent italian restaurant on Hunter Street near Union Street.
The springs could be felt, making sleep very uncomfortable. Every time we entered the room all we could smell was cigarette smoke, (we do not smoke). My observation is the smoke was coming from the smoking area outside the front of hotel. We shared the accommodation with cockroaches. The shower had limited space which made it dificult to have a comfortable shower.
Every night a beeping sound was heard in the room between 2230 & 0000hrs then again in the early hours of the morning. This sound interupted our sleep. The beeping noise was reported BUT it did not cease or did we receive any feedback.
As above the restaurant started well BUT the food deteriorated. Some examples - Most food was over cooked, singed or hard on the tooth. Aranchini balls were gluggy & soggy in the middle. The cauliflower bites were burnt on outside & hard in centre. One night the sticky date pudding was excellent then the 2 serves the next night were burnt & crumbly. etc. etc.
There was one cook that focused more on his mobile phone than his cooking.
Was very close to our conference venue of the Nex on King St. I was able to take airport bus to interchange and light rail to Honeysuckle stop then a short walk from there to hotel. Airport taxis in the realm of $80-$100.
Good food in restaurant and general pub atmosphere. Staff were always helpful.
Weekend music noise not too intrusive on upstairs rooms. Shared bathroom but only saw one other guest in there during my 4 days so not a problem.
The bathroom air-freshner got a bit much as I am used to lots of fresh air.
