Guests frequently praised the hotel's excellent location near Central Station, clean and comfortable rooms, and comfortable beds. The hotel is convenient for transport and amenities. However, many guests noted issues with noise from nearby pubs, trains, and construction, which disturbed sleep. Cleanliness was inconsistent, with some guests reporting dirty bathrooms and furniture.

Very good
Belinda, Jun 2024
Fabulous location, literally cross the street and enter Central Station. The only downfall, which is not their fault, is the noise from people on the street below and across the road at Dominos pizza and the other pub. If you can sleep with street noise, then this is an ideal place to stay in Sydney. Regards - the country gal, who is used to the sound of cows at night.
