Unfortunately the toilet was not cleaned and there were hairs on it. The fridge was also not cleaned and still had previous people food in it The fridge made a loud noise all night The entire place did not feel clean Also need to bring your own pillows as pillows felt as though no cushion in them Lucky I am short as the towels only just covered my body to dry me also It was cheap for the night so I guess I got what I paid for

This is what you expect of an Ibis property, clean, compact and perfectly suited to my needs for an overnight stay. The staff were extremely responsive, when there was a problem with the first room they sent me to, the problem was rectified immediately and they added some complimentary wine and parking. There is transport into the centre of Newcastle if needed, though its not far to walk to Pubs, Clubs and shopping centres.

Bang average. Bad breakfast.

Bang average hotel. Good location in Newcastle West end, easy walk to transport and waterfront. Rooms adequate, although modular bathroom is pokey. Staff service was generally very good. Parking costs extra $25. Breakfast $20 was terrible - bad options, little choice, struggling to keep up even with minimal patronage. Better going to a cafe down the road.

Stayed here a few times over the years. Service is good and rooms are comfortable. Quick walk for eating from KFC to top line dining. My preference is usually Wests Leagues for good value and proper drink prices.
