I’ve stayed at this hotel a few times when I’ve travelled to Sydney. It’s normally no frills cheap and cheerful, but this time around it was simply just cheap and nasty.
If you don’t like dragging suitcases up flights of stairways then don’t stay here. I had a room on the top floor and it’s not a pleasant task going up and down several times to sort problems out with reception.
After finally getting everything into the room, I noticed how much dirtier the room was compared to previous stays. The shower soap holder and drain were both covered in soap scum. The towel hangers were surrounded by mould and there was visible dirt orotund the doors. The paint on the walls in the main area were blistered and peeling. It’s clear that the rooms aren’t thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis at all.
Finally, my tv did not work. I thought it was the remote, so back to reception to get new batteries, but it was the tv on the blink. To their credit they did shift me into another room the next day, but then made up my original room and were obviously going to rent it to another unsuspecting customer without fixing it.
For the money, the Stamford Airport hotel just around from the airport kills this place for value. Rooms 3 times the size, luxurious and much, much cleaner for only $40 a night more.
