Booked a single room at a cheapish rate for Sydney- was only staying one night and didn’t need anything fancy. Check in still carries an outdated policy of either $100 cash deposit or $200 credit card (which you might not see for 14 business days after release) for “incidentals”. I don’t know what incidentals they mean because there are no mini bars or services offered. The room was located off the stairwell by itself, it felt like a converted broom cupboard!
The room was tiny but clean. There’s a fleecy bed spread without a cover which I’m not keen on for hygiene reasons. The room was visibly soundproofed felt panels with double glazed non opening windows however nothing could stop the the earthquake like deep rumbles and heavy clanging from the trains below. At first I thought I was next door to Cinema or a nightclub but I realised with dismay this would be my realty ALL NIGHT LONG. Not even my noise cancelling earphones and ear plugs could save my sleep. Do not stay here if you are noise sensitive like me. The windows looked into a dim abyss of a tall building courtyard a was very Londonesque and every bit as depressing..
The bed was a bit stiff, was glad morning came so I could leave.
Staff were silent, no pleasantries, smiles or greeting. An epitome of the way most hospitality and accomodation places such as Megaboom operate these days, wholly impersonal and indifferent.
Apart from the above it’s very central and well placed for food, transport and attractions.
The AC stopped working because they had to switch it off due to it getting too cold outside. I think the threshold was 15C/59F. The problem was that it got up to 25C/77F in my room and you could not open the windows. The hotel needs a heating and cooling system that can do both at the same time. I lost sleep due to the inadequate cooling system.
The staff accommodated quickly our needs. Made a way for us to have a nice room available as soon as possible. The staff are very kind very professional.
I appreciated the friendly, competent staff. I booked a solo traveler room which was modest and minimal but clean. Definitely reflected the lower price I paid. It is a great room for someone who just wants a basic smaller space to sleep/shower and who spends the day out. Great location!
Good location but the hotel was a bit run down, the lady at the front desk was obviously sick with a cold, I understood it was late Sunday night but you don't really want to check in like that.
The rooms are very small and run down, I get the microroom concept but when it's run down you think, Oh I hired a box, not a niche.
