Good, basic hotel, close to shops/restaurants. Staff were great and super helpful. Room was clean and perfect for our needs. 15-20min walk to Hyde Park but also close to King's Cross station. Highly recommend Algorithm cafe for breakfast just a 5 min walk away :)
The room was not secure despite the staff insisting. Room was tired and under the bed was about a years worth of dust and dirt.
Room and building and bathrooms are in general just old and not well maintained - small bugs crawling in shower each morning. Walls are paper thin and you can hear many different guests. Framing around bed in wall looks to be diy with paint missing screws coming out.
Location is good 👍 but not much else.
The reviews were all good at a glance, so I decided to try the place out. The tiny entry & reception area puzzled me but Sam on duty provided a warm and informative welcome. The room seemed a bit Spartan at first, mostly because there is no carpeting - the tiled floor was cold on the feet for winter but would be cool in summer. The bathroom was tiny but modern, with L’Occitane care products. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room in a quiet location as requested. Mini bar had all the essentials. The outside location in middle of Darlinghurst is really handy for food & transport - great for wandering. I would definitely stay again, but take some slippers!
It’s a nice little hotel in close proximity to everything. What it lacks in amenities it makes up in location.
They were also super accommodating when my flight plans changed.
Would def stay again
The amenities were spread over three locations blocks apart. My mouldy room with thin walls was in Victoria Street, reception in Darlinghurst Road and parking - which cost me $96.90 the first night and $55 the second night was in Bayswater Road.
The staff are very friendly and incredibly helpful. Rooms were clean and comfortable and suited our family. Great shower pressure which was a real positive.
