The customer service was very good but the fact the air conditioning didn’t work properly and the phone did not work was
Pros:

Customer service overall was good. I highly recommend providing a reference/ instruction booklet in room and not rely on people to scan for information.

Cons:

Faulty air conditioning and phone did not work.

Average hotel, noisy but great location
Pros:

Great location to Darling Harbour and the city, very noisy in the room because of traffic, bed was comfortable, bathroom door was very noisy but reported, expensive for what was on offer.

Cons:

small room, squeaking bathroom door that was not fixed even when reported, price too high for that type of accommodation.

Room was too hot and really stuffy, aircon did not go below 19 degrees and was blowing out at best neutral air or hot air. Pillow was too big for me so had a sore neck.

First time we used the Ibis and was very surprised how easy it was to park. Staff very Welcoming
Pros:

Location was excellent.
Newly painted rooms left a very strong paint smell so reception were more than happy to relocate us to another room on another floor without any fuss.

Cons:

Shower was a challenge to get the hot water right.

Good value and location for a 3 star
Pros:

Central
Close to woolys
And restaurants

Cons:

Overall was good call for a 3 star
The few little things
Was parking was $60 a night and the communication for that wasn’t great.
I have a big black hair at the end of my bed all tucked in with the sheets
The tea and coffee items where empty & the pillows and bed wasn’t that comfortable..

I did bring these things up the next morning I was told they would restock and swap out my pillows but no one ever came I stayed 3 nights
