Joabie
Nice and easy plenty of parking and reasonably quiet
rebecca
clean, efficient, quiet, public transport at doorstep. I loved the little side garden outside the kitchen, with benches in dappled sunlight, looking at people's vegetable garden plots. Nice place for a cup of tea and a book.
Staff were lovely and friendly.
The only issue I had was that the toilet lights were turned off late at night, with no way to turn them on, making 3am toilet stop very very dark!
highly recommend.

Cecilia
Great location, near the tram. And lots of parking. Did have some cockroaches in the room. Huge fluffy towels.
Shayal
The amenities were quite well-kept. The room was spacious and clean, enough for me traveling on my own. The bathroom was clean and body wash, shampoo and conditioner was available. Location was quite convenient, a few stops away from the main city centre via light rail. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay.
John
Well located - moderate distance from city centre on tram/light rail. A small convenience store 100 metres away. Comfortable bed. More than adequate storage space - 6 drawers and plenty of hanging space, although only 4 hangers. Mirror and sink in room - hot and cold water with adequate pressure. Bathrooms conveniently located and kept clean; soap, shampoo and conditioner provided. Kitchenette near rooms and well supplied with utensils, crockery, toaster, kettle, microwave, refrigerator. Tea bags, instant coffee sachets, sugar, milk sachets.
Overall the CAC is clean, quiet, comfortable and good value.

Good value for money. Essentially it’s a university hall of residence with hotel rooms. Not everyone’s cup of tea but fine for me. Clean and practical rooms with a clean shared bathroom and shared kitchenette. Is on the streetcar line to the city centre. I would stay here again.
Genevieve
Toilets and kitchenette very accessible. Room appropriate size. Parking onsite and location close to Canberra central.
Michael
For the cost it was great value for money. It is a budget accommodation, was very clean, bed was comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. Conveniently located to the city center. I would stay there again

ADRIAN
Budget accommodation. Clean, small room. Sink and TV. No kettle or table. No AC. There is a radiator attached to wall which may work in colder times. I stayed in the heat of a balmy summer. Fan in room displaced warm air in room.
Access to downstairs large communal kitchen with fridges ( trust policy).Free on site open air car park. Coin / App operated washing machine/ dryer on each floor. Shared bathroom on each floor. Social room with video games/ ping pong and tables.
Open room for setting up a workstation/ lapstop. Small gym room with smith machine, bench, functional trainer( cable machine) leg press ( AC is active in this room.
This appears to be a former ANU dorm facility turned into budget accom centre.
It is adequate for short stay in times other than sweltering summer days.

Room was clean but did not check that it didn’t have air conditioning and it was 38 degrees out there was not happy.

Quick stop in Canberra in apartment room . Room was ok except only fans and no AC so can be hot in the rooms
Siye
Clean room, friendly staffs
Adil
Room did not have place to hold towel. In other rooms, the towel rail is on the door.
Adil
Room heater on off valve issue. Did not find until last night of stay. I didn't report, so, can't say about staff helpfulness. Reporting to let facilities know that they should check key components of room before allocating.
Also, at check in time, a different allocated room's door lock did not work. Hence given an alternative room.
Seems like this facility rlies on guest to report and then fix the problem rather than proactively check before assigning room to guest.

Friendly helpful front desk, clean room, great very clean shared common kitchen and bathroom. All in all i liked the hostel vibe and the fact that other guests were friendly and up for a chat. I will stay again next time i am in Canberra. Ps very affordable too of course
Lily
Receptionist was lovely
Adil
Linens were clean but quilt had dust in it. So, on cold night could not put quilt over the face.
Penny
Couldn’t fault the beds, bathrooms, but also couldn’t turn off the heater or get the tv to work.
win
Convenient and quiet place with plenty of parking, clean kitchen and comfortable beds.
Adam
This property is pretty much as advertised. Its uni student accommodation that has passed its use by date so is now cheap public accommodation.
Room was dated but ok, though bed was horrendously bowed. Shared kitchen and bathroom facilities tired but clean and ok given the price.
Well positioned and cheap enough compared to everything else near by. Go in with low expectations and you will be fine.

This place was clean and warm; there was ample parking, and the location was super-convenient. Walk to the many restaurants etc. in centre of Canberra.
Reception was staffed and they had a simple QR code to provide WiFi access.

james
This place was nice to stay in. Very noisy street tho so had to have windows shut. Room was clean. The shared showers were clean but needed a hook and small shelves to keep dry clothes on . But was nice to be able to walk to restaurants at night and feel safe. Or just catch the tram into town straight from the front of hotel.

Lorraine
Price is okay for an overnight stay
Clean, inorder and basic. No AC or electric fan, although it was chilly outside when we got there, but seemed a bit warm and uncomfortable inside a small room.
Joseph
Overall the place was good. You get what you pay for .
Mesu
Close to city
Shafi
It’s good property to stay. At walking distance to nearby attractions
Ashleigh
It is the cheapest accomodation near the city and the rooms and common areas are always spotless. However sound insulation in the rooms is really poor. You can hear conversations from other rooms, in the hallway and outside traffic. The mattress and pillows are also not the most comfortable so I never get a great night’s sleep here.
kym
Great experience. Free onsite parking. Comfortable room, toilets and kitchen close. Light rail right across road and free at the moment. Grocery and takeaway out the back. Everything we needed for an inexpensive break
Betty
Clean and functional. Good parking. Friendly rates. Traffic noise from the street was a bit of a concern

Location is great. Old building. Some of the front office desk staff are good, some are grumpy/unhelpful. The toilets need better maintenance and more frequent cleaning. The rooms aren't quiet at all - a lot of noise/sound seeps in.
Ashley
Great
Claire
Very clean, tastefully refurbished old hotel/hostel accommodation. I felt relaxed staying here.
The room I booked had a sink with hot running water and use of communal bathroom which serviced a small number of rooms. Shower cubicles also had a bath!
The large communal kitchen was excellent to be able to prepare our own meals.
Parking was easy and free!
There was a great vibe about this place. Will definitely stay again.

Cheap and convenient transportation
Very close station just front of CAC.
The single bed is comfortable and easy to sleep in. The room is small but well-furnished and has plenty of storage space. It's a little old, but that's no problem. The shared kitchen and bathroom are clean and tidy.

Excellent choice if you're looking for affordable accommodation close to the city with privacy.
Kym
Only very average attention to maintenance in shared kitchen & ablutions facilities.
Robert
There was no mention of no shower/toilet facilities in the room. There was no A/C or even a fan. 14 day holiday in 4 states, staying at 12 different hotels/motels, and this ranked at the bottom. Stayed in Canberra on 4 different occasions and the hotel accommodation was far better at all 4 of them. Priced the same so wasn't expecting to be this far below expectations. Sorry. I won't be back.
Dann
Enough for what you need to stay the night if you are up and about during the day
Andrew
It was a simple place to sleep
Darren
Review of the Motel:
My recent stay at the motel was less than satisfactory due to a couple of significant drawbacks. Firstly, the lack of air conditioning was a major issue, particularly during warmer weather. The absence of this basic amenity made the room uncomfortably hot and stuffy, significantly impacting the overall quality of my stay.
Additionally, the limited functionality of the windows compounded the discomfort. Despite attempting to open them, they didn't allow for sufficient airflow, further exacerbating the temperature and ventilation problems within the room. This made it challenging to get a good night's sleep and enjoy a comfortable environment during my stay.
While the motel may offer affordability and convenience in terms of location, the absence of air conditioning and inadequate window ventilation significantly detracted from the overall experience. I would recommend addressing these issues to enhance the comfort and satisfaction of future guests.

Kelvyn
I enjoyed my stay here, it was quiet and the people who work there were all very friendly. It's student accomodation which brought me back to my university days, however everything was expected, the location is central and for the price it is an easy stay!
JD
Great location for a short stay in Canberra, staff and other guests were lovely and right by light rail. Was very impressed. The only thing would be I wish there were fans or aircon in the rooms as it was quite hot
Peter
Access to light rail at door. Cafe onsite and another next door.
Have stayed multiple times without issue. depending on who is staying in room next door, if they are up late opening and closing doors you will hear it.
Still, good value for money in this expensive city.

Very dirty and poor staff

Good base, poor reception service
Good base for the night, however staff at reception would benefit from some customer service training. FYI no aircon, however they can provide tower fans.
Peter
right on tram line, very clean, basic, comfortable.

Value and Safety are Excellent
Peter
Reasonable price, right at tram stop, well maintained, very clean, very comfortable bed. Basic accommodation in convenient location
Jeremy
Nice place. Very cheap but great location. Mildly run down but not beyond what youd expect of student accommodation
Catherine
Pretty much as you’d expect in this price range.

Francis
Nice and warm

Unsafe and very substandard. There was someone who went rough and atarted to break up windows and glasses in the property. I can't believe accommodations like these are allowed to operate in Australia. It is very tiny, no air condition, and felt like a prison cell. Do not book accommodation with this facility.
Belinda
Affordable and clean

The accommodation is reasonably comfortable, but since this is shared showers, toilet and kitchenette the behaviour of other residents impacts on the stay with dishes left in the sink, insufficient bowls. Recently added boom gates and pay-parking to parking area which is frustrating to use.
Maree
Easy to go to where I needed.
John
If you are looking for a cheap, basic accomodation then this is perfect.
Friendly staff, very clean rooms and quiet.
Would recommend this if you're on a budget or happy with the simple life.

People who comment no this or that. Need to look. I had 3 powerpoints available. Everything was clean, in fact towels were better quality than other far more expensive places I've stayed at. Yes you hear road noise guess what its on one of the main traffic routes, its what makes it walkable and easy to get to Canberra cbd.

Given this is budget accommodation, the facilities are very good. All staff I dealt with were helpful and friendly.
Unfortunately the air temperature varied from 3 degrees to 25 degrees during my stay and the hotel was extremely warm all the time.

Not much interesting to stay another time from my experience
Elliott
Was nowhere near as nice as advertised but the staff were lovely. Shared kitchen only had a microwave and fridge and the room had no effort shown with trying to keep it nice with stains and pint scratches everywhere. Cheapest accomidation in Canberra and you get what you pay for
Tatiana
Good value for money. The building is conveniently located near the center, and easy to find. Simple room with a clean shared bathroom and kitchenette. Good for a short-period stay.

Convenient location, not expensive, quiet)

excellent value for money

It's extremely good value for money - it's old university forms which are definitely showing their age, but if you're just needing a place to sleep this is perfect. Shared bathrooms are very clean and toiletries are provided in the bathroom (pump soap, shampoo, etc). A towel and face washer are provided in your room. The beds are very comfortable. Free parking on site.
My only complaint would be they seem to deactivate the room keys around 9am despite check out not being until 10am. I was caught out on my first visit when I went for a shower at 9:30am and couldn't get back in the room (needed to head down to reception who were helpful in reactivating the room key for me), this time I overheard a few people in the hallway locked out of their rooms at 9am. I have never encountered a hotel that disables room keys before check out.
The area around the property isn't anything particularly special, the light rail runs past so if you're using public transport it's convenient. There's always share scooters parked at the doors and Ubers quite often sit in the carpark and wait so you'll get a ride super quick.
