It’s in a good location, straight in the middle of the CBD. Unfortunately being in that location attracts a lot of noise at all hours of the day and night. Thankful I didnt stay during a hot summer, the fan offers little breeze and room can feel stuffy. Patchy wifi too. Do like having codes for the room, spared from carrying keys.

GREAT LOCATION!! The only down side is the noise but they do provide ear plugs so its manageable and it does get really hot and stuffy in the room with only the fans (I came end of Feb in 25°). But overall those downs sides can't beat the great location.

No availability for after hours service and we had a medical emergency and locked ourselves out of our room.

Hot. Sauna. The rooms have no aircon. I literally left at midnight to get icy poles. The taps only have warm water! We sprayed ourselves all night with water.

Because it was so hot we needed to leave the window open and it was so loud.

If you in the city for an all night bender go for it but totally would never stay here again.

Decent size room. Right in a busy cool part of Sydney. No toilet, but the toilets are close. Really clean room and facilities. I'd fully recommend to busy travellers. It's definitely not quiet as there's bars and noise everywhere. I loved the noise and buzz of everything. The streets get quiet around midnight during the week nights and later in the weekend. If you're looking for somewhere quiet, this is not for you. Personally, i thought the room was perfect!

Location is the best thing about it

It’s all shared bathrooms which is not clearly stated in the hotel description. There’s no service at all - you get random codes the day of check in. Some strange guy was sleeping in the hallway outside our room the first night and “bathing” in the toilet room. There was some blood on the wall of one shower that didn’t get cleaned off during our stay. The toilets are odd - the tap fills the cistern so they run a lot longer than you expect. It’s VERY loud with the pub noise downstairs - the traffic noise isn’t bad but the karaoke is really loud and goes until about 1am. The bed is comfortable though and the room was surprisingly warm.
Its location is great though - 5 minutes from Town Hall station and surrounded by all-night food and drinks and groceries.

My watch fell in the room, and I sent them an email asking them to help me find it, but no one has replied to my email so far. The most important thing is that this room is too noisy. The sound of the electric trains downstairs seriously affects our sleep,

Decent old school pub stay in great location

Room was great, excellent location on George st. A little warm in the room but adaptable with the windows open and two fans (one ceiling and one portable). Bathrooms clean. Great if you like an old style pub in a great location with multiple dining and entertainment venues around, this is value for money for Sydney!

In addition, fun was had downstairs in the main bar for karaoke night! Drinks very reasonably priced and great fun crowd for someone middle aged. There was a little noise in my room when I left the karaoke, but it didn’t bother myself. Ear plugs are provided. No fridge, cups or glasses in the room so may want to bring your own (cups not fridge)

They did provide earplugs which worked really well to block out the pub noise.

Rooms are huge you could easily fit another full size bed in one room along. Really great location on the corner of George street right down from the Chinatown Tram Stop.

My only gripe is that it got extremely hot with a piddly ceiling fan, they had an old aircon unit installed in the room i was in but no remote. Please install aircon its necesary to get a good nights sleep in summer.

If you have the windows open the sound from the pubs will be loud but it's the city so *shrugs*.

The bathrooms are incredibly clean although i would appreciate either another bar of soap for the shower or wall mounted body wash dispensers in the showers. One bar of soap and one towel isn't enough for 2 people.
