Decided to stay here largely due to price. Room was very basic with just TV and a small ensuite of sorts. Fairly impressed with cleanliness of room, although bed and blankets needed improving. Within walking distance to all major shopping areas of Sydney and very close to the train station. There were some other basic features e.g. internet access, which... more

I've stayed at a couple of Formule 1 Hotels in different countries (Australia, France, Germany), and had mixed experiences. But I know what to expect from the chain, and was happy with this place. After having a very difficult experience trying to get a refund (we had booked in two nights, as two different reservations; but they charged us for... more

The toilet didn't flush, we repeatedly told the staff, it didn't help. Well, nothing else was bad. We found a restaurant named Spigolo right round the corner, Italian restaurant run by Italians. Food was great. I might go to stay there again just to go and eat at that place. :) more

We were only staying 2 nights and needed somewhere central. The location was great and although the room was extremely basic and small it served it's purpose. we booked a quad room, 2 bunk beds an ensuite and a small TV. I wouldn't stay if you are spending any lenght of time here but for a few nights it was... more

I've stayed in countless hotels/motels in this price range around Australia & this has to be the worst. The bedsread & blanket don't appear to have ever been cleaned, there were crumbs in the bed & the mattress smelled. The bathroom floor tiles were mouldy & the water pressure so bad that I had to run around in the shower... more

When backpacking it is not unusual to make some bad accomodation choices. However, in 5 months on the road, including developing nations, this was second worst (the other was in a remote bit of Peru). The noise was terrible. The place was occupied mostly by a youth sports club and drunks, who spent all night shouting in the corridoors. The... more

Very bad accommodation...tiny room like matchbox, not enough space for our suite case, so noisy, and the window is locked unable to open it, god knows why?? No basic cutlery, tea/coffee facilities or a fridge which are a basic requirements for any en suite room/hotel room, which was shocking. Basically nothing there just tiny room with bed and bathroom which... more

Tiny room - you walk in and the bed is at the front door, and the wall on the other side. Tiny bathroom, no toiletries provided. Towels had holes in them. This is an absolutely basic place to stay, no better than a backpackers hostel. Would not go back! more

Stayed here for 2 nights and found the place to be in a good location (william st)which is a couple of mins walk to the cross.unfortunately the noise levels on the inside made it near impossible to sleep as it seems the cheap accomodation rates seemed to attract all types.Room was of a decent standard but what i thought was... more

Stayed there with my partner as we were going out in Kings Cross that night, so we thought that it would be close by - and it looked relatively new from the outside. We didnt expect much beacuse of the price, but it was a truly awful stay. Once we arrived we were told that they had checked for our... more
