Cleanliness okay for room but corridors were not cleaned & outside bin not emptied for the 4 days I was there as I could see the same dirt on carpets.
Duvet inner was old & a bit disgusting with stains once it slipped out of the sheet covers. Pillows were very hard to sleep on too.

Its a short walk to Arncliffe Station and easy access to CBD and Airports.
For a budget cost hotel its good value with one of the best Pizza Shops (Scarfos) just across nearby.

The hotel is very basic but very affordable. Is very convenient for early access to the airport for us the next day. Staff were very accommodating and helpful and there was free parking on an adjacent street. Would definitely stay here again if I have an early flight out of Sydney Airport.

Just awful. It's a coverted pub. Clean sheets .. but don't walk on the floor without shoes.
Whole place reeks of marijuana.
There is no night staff.
It's on the main road and loud enough they give you a portable sound machine to try and block out the incessant noise.
It's possible I would have had a cleaner, safer and quieter sleep if I'd slept in a park bench instead for the night.

I didn’t expect much from the outside and traffic if soooo busy, but once you step inside that all goes away! What a lovely renovation to an old hotel, it’s has a great retro feel with a touch of luxury. Rooms are compact but functional and very clean and quiet. I loved my stay and staff were very nice. Very close to the airport which is why I chose it & Arncliffe train station is a 5min walk. Shops, restaurants & supermarket are just up the road. I would definitely recommend it and will stay their again.

It did its job and pretty decent for the price. HOWEVER, I do not like the layout of the room. The toilet and shower is in one room together with the bed. the view of mg bed is basically the toilet. I do not get how and why. Also, it is very noisy and can hear the cars outside. I think the hotel knows this and already provided free earplugs. I will not book this hotel ever again.

Taxi's and cars can't park safely near the hotel so you'll have to drag your bags up and around a nearby side street.

The noise is horrendous - you can hear everything because the windows open into the corridors. There aren't any real curtains but little shutters. It was bizarre.

If you're trying to book somewhere for convenience and a good nights sleep this is not the place.

I can see they have tried to present the hotel well however it's on the highway corner. When the first thing you see in a room is a pile of earplugs you realise you should have spent another $100 somewhere else. My double bed was at the top of 5 steep stairs, as an older person who must go to the bathroom I was afraid I would fall down them so slept on the sloping single which I had to focus not to roll off the slope onto the floor. Bathroom smelt like a smoker had been there. Reception locked in a.m. hard to find door to escape.

A BOUTIQUE \"hotel\"??. No restaurant. No bar. No onsite parking. A 2 min walk to your car? A bloody long way in the rain. Cleaners need to be taught how to clean a bathroom. The room tiny and comes with supplied earplugs???? All of that for 450 dollars NON REFUNDABLE !! Same room can be booked for 180 ? Should have read reviews before booking.

The room was small but very clean and well maintained. Perfect for a one night stay. We took the wrong train to get there so walked further than necessary. But that was our fault as it was clearly stated in the email which station to go to.
The bus stop for the airport was half a block away which was very convenient. Suggest the bus if going to the airport to save money as the train is 8x the price.
Downside was there weren’t many restaurants within walking distance. Bros Kebab was awesome! There was also no breakfast so best to stock up before you get there.

It was okay at best. Not great, but not terrible. We arrived after hours and were given two keycards to pick a room, only to find out it was already someone else’s, so we had to move rooms the next morning. The walls are very thin — you can hear people and the shower pipes at all hours. The location is inconvenient for pick-ups and drop-offs. Staff were mediocre, with poor communication and not very helpful. The vending machine didn’t work, so no cold drinks were available. The bed was average.

I would recommend that the hotel invest in double or triple glazing on the windows. The room was small but clean tidy and acceptable. The hotel is charming, however very loud and ear plugs are a must.

This was a delightful find for my short night in Sydney last night. The pre-arrival communication was perfect to allow me to enter late and leave very early without anyone in attendance. Thank-you for setting this up. I was literally stunned by all the little details in my room with even some ear plugs for drowning out the noises of the street. The use of space in the room with loo and lovely shower was quite remarkable. This place is a gen and comes with my 100% recommendation.

Kitchen was even worse and people had cockroaches in their food boxes and in the cupboards too. The main door had a broken lock so they left a broom to keep it opened for people to be able to get in.
