Not ideal. Very noisy no insulation. TV could not hold a station. Shower items left by previous guests not removed(used soap etc) no staff outside pub hours, so limited help. I guess the earplugs I found in the kitchenette should have been the warning sign.
There is no telephone if you need something, or if theres any problem in the room.
The water is not getting wsrm enough to take a showerit was really cold ;(

The staff were wonderful. The transport acces was fantastic with multiple bus stops in the area, the area was very noisy but ear plugs were provided
Windows are paper thin and extremely noisy intersection outside. Double glazed windows would eliminate a lot of road noise. Other than that the stay was fine and a good location for pubs and access to casino.

The location is good but the place is noisy and has bugs and roaches issues.
The staff at The Dunkirk were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for them - they even carried our bags up the stairs for us. The room was clean and had everything we needed for our short stay - would definitely stay here again.
I had a problem in that my room was directly over the extraction fan for the kitchen. It was so noisy that you could not hear the TV in the room. The staff knew of the problem and said it would go off at 8.30pm when the Kitchen closed. At 9.30pm the noise was so bad I checked out to another hotel. On departure the staff asked what the issue was. They told me the staff had gone home and forgot to turn the fan off. One of the worst hotel experiences ever and in Australia.
Going to the Lyric Theatre was easy to get to. The bus stop was just outside the hotel and made the connection to and from the airport great.
With the main road outside it was a bit noisy but was only one night.
