Hotel is in a great location, short drive to the airport and lots of dining options nearby. However, the hotel condition is pretty bad, carpet is dirty, chairs in our room were filthy and had stains all over. There is a massive bright sign outside the room window which flickers all night which makes it very hard to sleep.

Room was perfectly comfortable for the price. Bed, clothes hanging space, sink, bathroom down the hall. Unfortunately it was very cold and no spare blankets. One sheet and a thin blanket on the bed. I had to put my coat over me to sleep. Shared bathroom space was in ok condition. Not great water pressure. Perfect for a single night before an early flight or if you need to be in the area early the next day.

Booked online and was given the option of paying then or when I arrived. I chose the latter only to discover 2 days before arriving that they did not take my booking or reserve my room. I had 48 hrs to find alternative accomodation. I will NEVER use this site to book ANYTHING ever again nor will I choose to stay at this hotel.

I was very satisfied with the experience for a simple overnight stay. A typical suburban pub with basic shared facilities. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and if you like a classic old tiled shared bathroom from a different era in time, then this place is for you! Don't ever change it. The hotel is on a main road so you may like to pack some ear plugs. Frequent trains link Sydney CBD and buses with Sydney Airports being a short walk away. I'll most certainly stay again.
