Every time you needed to get staff you had to go outside the hotel, ring the door bell and talk through the door bell microphone. Staff then came from across the road, so I am assuming this is not the only hotel this family/company own. The room was small and awkwardly arranged with the bed up against the wall, making it difficult for the person sleeping next to the wall to get out of bed without disturbing the person next to them. The window was single glazed and in such a dreadful state that a cold draft was always coming into the room. The radiator was on full (possibly because of the single glazed broken window) but could not be turned down as the radiator valve was broken. The room had been cleaned but the quality of fittings and installations made the room feel very shabby. The worst thing of all was the excessive noise. With only a single glazed broken window the sounds from outside were very loud. Cars and lorries, plus noisy mopeds and large crowds of people. The busy pub opposite (plus a number of restaurants and two other pubs nearby) led to noisy revellers talking loudly and often yelling until midnight. On top of all this was the sound of the underground that penetrated the room as many as 3 trains a minute at peak times. The underground trains didn’t cease until 43 minutes past midnight and started again at 05.18am. We will not be using this hotel again.

This place is awful, just awful. Our expectations were pretty low to begin with after reading reviews, $1000 for 3 nights. SO dirty, SO hot, SO INCREDIBLY tiny, broken sink, crooked toilet, smells, exhaust from next door restaurant floating in, so loud…the only good thing was the staff gentleman was kind. RUN away from this place.

This was the smallest room I have ever stayed in. Pictures were very misleading. Very noisy— I had a sound machine with me so that helped. Overall seemed fairly clean, and location was good, but be aware the rooms are tiny and you can hear everything.

The best part about this was the price and the location. We got more than what we paid for - a pretty decent private room, comfortable enough bed, more than workable bathroom. Would recommend for a semi-budget option.

Kings Cross base

Good location base. Original room a bit of a small layout but we were luckily offered another choice of room available which we took. Staff friendly and very helpful. Communal areas need refurbishing as heavy use. Busy area so if on lower levels can hear outside but have to expect this in a city. Lots of places to eat nearby.

Poor condition

The carpet was too dusty and untidy. It is very bad room for this price , but found great hotel in two minutes walk distance at perfect condition at the similar price. Felt unfortunate that I saw the good hotel nearby only after vacating from Leigh and at the end of my trip. The toilet wash basin was broken and looks filthy. Even there is no phone available to contact the reception,.had to come down to reception if we have any questions and couldn't even find the receptionist there when I went to give my key back.
