The huge balcony / outdoor deck and the 5 star shower..for a truly budget hotel, I was expecting the worst, in spite of the lovely pictures online. But no, the room (a very basic priced double) was huge, with an amazing walk in shower with 2 types of rapidly hot shower heads thay could be used simultaneously! Perfect for the weary traveller. Additionally, the reception front desk staff were super professional, friendly, courteous and diligent in their work.

Some of the other reviews seemed to paint a picture that it was horrific, but it was fine for where it is and how much it costs. Room is spacious, bed was reasonably comfortable (although pillows not to my liking, but are they ever?), bathrooms were OK. Main bad point is the timber floors if you get elephants for neighbours who don't like to sleep. If you are someone who needs pitch black to sleep, you are going to struggle, but it actually wasn't too bad. There was a bit of a damp smell in the hallways, probably from the moisture in the bathrooms however the room itself is fine. Don't go expecting a 5 star hotel, but people must have some pretty high expectations of budget accommodation to leave such bad reviews.

A waste
The ‘balcony’ had an 8ft wall around it, so you couldn’t see anything. And the room had cockroaches which is simply unacceptable.

would suggest to all staying check that you take photos as I am being stung for pillows that were not even in the room. There was an off seafood type smell also in the room even after keeping the window open while not in the room.

**Mixed Experience at Sydney Riseon Hotel I recently stayed at the Sydney Riseon Hotel in the CBF district and have mixed feelings about my experience. Starting with the positives, the receptionist, Ann, was extremely welcoming and kind upon our arrival. The hotel’s location in the heart of everything was convenient for our first night in the city. However, our initial impression was dampened by a loud discussion between staff members in an adjacent room, which was quite off-putting. Despite some reservations due to mixed reviews, we decided to give it a chance. Upon entering our upgraded room, provided due to high occupancy, we were greeted by a foul odor reminiscent of decay. Unfortunately, despite our request, we were unable to change rooms. We resorted to purchasing an air freshener, which was readily offered at the front desk, albeit suspiciously. The source of the odor seemed to be the bathroom, which boasted three shower heads, perhaps aiming for a sense of luxury but missing the mark. Overall, while the hotel has its merits, potential guests should carefully consider recent reviewer comments before making a decision to stay here.
