On the plane ride back to Sydney, Australia as I write this review. My family and I stayed for 7 nights, and absolutely loved it. Perfect location, situated a street over from Lewers Street. Finding something to eat and do was never a problem. I loved that there WASN’T a shower/tub combo, even though I had my little one. If you are worried about being too high with kids, there are only 5 floors and there is no chance of falling through the railing. Staff were completely accomodating and very friendly. Would definitely reccomend to all individuals and groups!!!!!

We loved: The staff were great and very polite and helpful. There were beach chairs and umbrellas to check out free of charge to take to the beach. Near the beach shopping and food, all within walking distance. Some issues: Parts of the building are in dire need of repair and there was a faint smell of mildew in our room.

It was ok… but I wouldn’t choose the hotel again. The room that I took the bathroom was not totally cleaned and the drawers in the room were dirty/dusty. Staff were ok, and location is good as well.

My stay was excellent! Parking was $35 a day with ins and outs included. They have their own private parking location like 5 minutes, walking distance from hotel. If we go again, this would definitely be the spot to stay. It's not fancy but has what you need to be comfortable. We saved a lot of money by having a Stove, Fridge & microwave. We enjoyed lovely dinners at the Hard Rock Hotel in which is literally 2 shops down and PF Changs, a bit more further but a comfortable walking distance, from the hotel. a lot of shopping stores all the way around. Beach is a nice 10 minute walk or you can easily rent a bike or scooter. Our room had a balcony facing the streets, we can hear music, and all kinds of rowdiness but we didn't mind it, because we're party people. You can easily close the sliding door and the noise will minimize. Overall, a great 5 day comfortable stay. I have nothing to complaint about.

The property was in a good location. Except the cupboards and bathroom was dirty. The shower had black mold. The renovations were poorly done. Limited plug ins close to the bed. Carpet wasn’t even kicked in and kept tripping over the big rolled up part. It was probably the worst for cleanliness I’ve ever stayed in. I would suggest not staying here even if you’re tight on a budget. You’ll end up getting sick.
