Guest Reviews

• Chisako (10/5): -
• Atd (10/5): -
• Igoris (4/5): - Positivesa: The location is good. It is not far from the city center and is right next to the bus station. The room itself is just "okay." Internet speed in room 2 is very good. No noise observed. We stayed at this hotel from 14/05/2026 to 17/05/2026. Room 2. Despite a very good first impression after a short morning chat with a man and woman (who seemed to be the owners), the rest of our experience was very disappointing. 1) Cockroaches in the room On 15/05, when we returned to the hotel, we found two cockroaches, including one inside our bed. We killed one and reported it to the owner, but the second one scurried away somewhere in the room. Over the next three days, the owners offered no apologies, took no action, and made no effort to resolve or prevent the issue. Their only "recommendation" was for us to leave our rubbish outside the room so they could clear it (even though we had absolutely zero rubbish in the room). We have lived in Asia for four years, and this is our first time experiencing this in a hotel. Even though we understand pests might be considered "normal" in an older building on the second floor, we still expected a formal apology and some basic action to solve the problem. 2) Unnecessary disturbances If it weren't for the first issue, I probably wouldn't even mention this and the following point. We arrived very late after our flight; there is no need to bang on the door at 9:30 AM and wake up your guests. 3) Cleanliness issues Overall, the room looked clean but felt nasty. There was a bad smell coming from the bathroom, and we found stains on the "clean" towels. The owners often state in their review replies that "you get what you pay for." However, I should point out that just a couple of stations away, you can book a one-year-old excellent hotel for a cheaper price. Where we stay after staying here.
• Josef (1/5): Vi bokade nytt hotell sov inte ens en natt. - Tyckte om läget. Luktade äckligt. Mögel i duschen. Fläckar på lakan. Inget ordentligt lås på dörren.
• Paul (7/5): -
• Karen (8/5): -
• Highco1 (8/5): -
• Orte (6/5): El - La ubicación El fin de semana no había atención a las habitaciones y el lunes tampoco.
• Janushan (7/5): -
• Linda (7/5): -
• Aurora (3/5): - L'emplacement Le cafard dans ma chambre, la douche qui fuit et la difficulté à régler la température, le rapport qualité-prix était clairement pas la meme pour sydney. Et le stores sont quasi inutiles puisque toute la lumière passe.
• Tragweite82 (7/5): -
• Caroline (5/5): -
• Xu (3/5): 我还不如提高点预算去住更好的酒店 - 价格低廉 房间有蟑螂，很多，刚进入房间消毒水的味道特别重，房间不提供一次性牙具，没有一次性拖鞋，不确定房间的枕头和被子有没有做过深度清洗。
• Aurora (10/5): -
• David (8/5): A pleasant small hotel, with a convenient location. - Great location . Easy access to transport & dining. The owner was also very helpful, assisting with carrying luggage up the stairs. Nothing, really, considering the cost. Good value for money.
• Angelica (6/5): -
• Hong-Kai (9/5): - The location is perfect. Only one roll of tissue paper is provided for a 3-day stay.
• Jacob (7/5): -
• Fergal (8/5): - Great location and very friendly hosts Certainly suited a drifter like me for a short stay in a vibrant city Price and WiFi sometimes
• SMIRNOVA (10/5): -
• Guest (6/5): -
• Frank (7/5): -
• Richard (6/5): Great location for our purposes, room clean though smallish, friendly staff, train was 300 metres - Good location, bit of noise within the hotel
• DOSADO (9/5): I enjoyed my 4 nights stay because overall it was clean, very easy to walk around the city - location is good, clean rooms and hallway, accessible to bus station and train many restaurants around, coles and woolworths is near, tv inside and fridge none so far
• Sharon (9/5): Close to kings cross, station and buses so easy to get around - There is a cafe downstairs from the hotel, fabulous Filipino fare Ate there each morning of our stay Yum!! Hosts accommodated us with our luggage before checking in and after checking out. Not the usual hotel with a luggage room and 24hr reception so much appreciated their assistance My partner likes to do any dishes we might have There was no dishwash detergent or tea towels available in our room Also the ceiling fan in our room didn’t work I did not mention either to our host though as we managed without the above
• Tom (10/5): Best you’ll find for this price! - Overall, great!
• Steven (7/5): Almost great. - Great location, great value for the location as well. Staff was responsive. Room had working AC and good hot water. Check-in/check-out was easy enough. Room was quiet too. Overall, I very much recommend this place for one person that needs an efficient place to stay for a quick visit to Sydney. The wifi was very poor and mostly unusable, especially for my room at the far end of the hallway. It's such a pity because this is a relatively easy fix for the property, but they choose to cut corners and use cheap wifi network extenders that don't work, instead of getting a properly sized wifi system. Only one towel was provided, and I stayed during some humid weather so the one bath towel wasn't dry by the next time I needed to use it. These seem like small problems -and they are- but they are also easily fixed problem. All that said, I still think the positive aspects outweigh the negative aspects.
• Artur (10/5): Highly recommend - Room was clean and location is perfect. We had everything we needed there. We could leave our luggage after check-out, which was very nice. Nothing.
• Nur (10/5): -
• Heinz (9/5): -
• Innocenzo (8/5): Short visit to the city - Location in a quiet neighborhood within a short distance of Kings Cross train station, with easy access to key points of the city. Clear and simple check-in and checkout procedures. No complaints really
• Kara (10/5): - The location is amazing, cheap prices, hotel itself is very quiet so easy to get to sleep. Met the owners upon checking out and they were lovely and helpful. Liked the aircon and mini fridge too. Very close to lots of different food options. Couldn’t fault this property one bit. Everything about it was great :)
• Mary (8/5): -
• Desmond (8/5): Good accomodation in central location - Very central location, easy bus ride to the CBD. Lots of cafe restaurants etc nearby. Flexible to hold bags. Staff very friendly and helpful with guidance. Power out for few hours but no great impact.
• Brikena (8/5): -
• HANG (8/5): -
• Abby (8/5): - Location and cleanliness No parking
• Alexander (10/5): Perfect budget accommodation - The check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. The room was clean and comfortable. Very quiet. It was very close to public transport via train or bus and plenty of food options around Kings Cross. For what seems like a tiny room there actually ended up being plenty of space to store everything, spread out and relax without feeling cramped.
• Kate Kylie (7/5): Great location - Location was great. Bathroom was clean. Water pressure in the shower was pretty weak. TV was pretty old and was not a smart TV (cant watch netflix, etc). Pillows were thin. A microwave would be great
• Átila (9/5): - O quarto é muito amplo, com dois ambientes, banheiro excelente e limpeza diária (não limpam nos finais de semana). Não tem café da manhã, mas há muitos cafés pelas redondezas e também é possível comprar coisas no mercado e tomar café no quarto, há uma mesa com uma janela ampla com vista para rua, toda arborizada. Os lençóis são todos manchados. Dá para perceber que estão limpos, mas com manchas que não saem mais e isso pode causar uma baita má impressão.
• Selga (8/5): It was a lovely stay. We were mostly touring during the day, and came back to the room at night to rest, no problems wi - Location - around 5-minute walk to Kings Cross train station, and local bus stops. Close to supermarkets, fast food, and restaurants. Has a really nice cafe just below the property. They offered sunscreen lotions at the lobby for everyone to use during a sunny day. No elevator. It might be tricky if bringing heavy baggage. Internet is sometimes slow or malfunctions.
• Dean (8/5): Had a good time but pick up a flu at the end - Access to facilities Service at certain venues in kingscross and poor travel options after event
• Donna (9/5): -
• Julia (6/5): Gute Verkehrslage, jedoch leicht abgenutzte Unterkunft - Das Hotel ist fußläufig zur Bahnstation Kings Cross gelegen und bietet viele Restaurants in unmittelbarer Umgebung. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, bemüht und zuvorkommend. Die Unterkunft ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen: das Bett ist schon sehr durchgelegen, so dass man die Sprungfedern spürt; die Geräte sind etwas abgenutzt.
• alain (10/5): - Hotel, très bien placé à côté des commerces, pas loin du métro et du train surtout très au calme au aucun bruit, nous avons beaucoup apprécié et nous recommandons cet hôtel
• Jorma Bos (8/5): Prima verblijf vlakbij het centrum. 25 minuten loopafstand of openbaarvervoer om de hoek. - Kleine knusse kamer met een heerlijk bed! De locatie is prima! Niets
• Thomas (9/5): Great choice highly recommand - Great location, super comfy and quiet. George and his staff are lovely. Direction to self check-in are super clear. Highly recommand There is a window in the room but no view (there is a wall in front of the window). Not a big deal but thought it would be important to mention
• Daniela (8/5): -
• Aline (7/5): Tive uma excelente estadia! Local estava limpo, organizado, aconchegante -
• Ti wei (6/5): - 房間沒有提供房客是否需要打掃的掛牌，我們不知道打掃人員每天會進入房間更換床單，我們放在床上的東西都很粗魯的被丟在地板上。 打掃人員還表示我們不能每天更換毛巾。
• Paul (8/5): Great location at good price point. Friendly and helpful host. - Location excellent for walking around central Sydney. Quiet end of street with great restaurants a very short walk away. Cafe for breakfast next door and a Launderette 2 doors down. Flight of stairs to ground floor to carry a heavy case up. Room clean but basic. Take a phone plug as no usb sockets in room. Bathroom could use an update but clean and tidy.
• Gisela (8/5): -
• Roland (10/5): Simple and great staying in a brilliant location - Comfortable bed, perfect onboarding experience, great location. Na
• Christine (8/5): - The hotel was reasonably priced for my one night prior to surgery at St Luke's Hospital. It was clean, simply but well outfitted, close to eating places and the owner was exceptional at communicating with me. He was very considerate in moving me to a lower floor to spare me a walk up another flight of stairs.
• Adam (9/5): Great value for money, would stay again when next in Sydney - Great value for money in an amazing location. Check in/out was super easy and had no issues with noise considering the central location. Would stay again :) Only small issue we had was the blind didn’t block out much of the light from the street lamps outside, luckily we had sleep masks
• Sean (8/5): -
• Nerryl (7/5): - Convenient to where I needed to be
• Christine (8/5): - Very helpful and friendly staff. Great value for money. Fantastic location Close to the train and bus. Close to shops and restaurants. Cafe next door had lovely food. I would stay there again and recommend it to friends for location and price. Bathrooms were small and need refurbishment. Toilet was very low. It was OK though considering how cheap the stay was. It was adequate.
• Austin (6/5): - the property was cozy and good value for money they knock on your door and ask to enter your room when you're still sleeping. not much of a hotel
• Bo Yi (10/5): -
• James (10/5): -
• Daniel (9/5): -
• Karoline (10/5): Amazing place cost benefit - Amazing Could have a microwave in the room
• James (10/5): -
• Deana (10/5): - I've stayed @ Hotel 59 many times over, and I'm always satisfied. Always, when I stay in Sydney, this is the forst place I look fpr, for comfy, safe & clean accommodation. All the utilities work, it is quiet, it is close to all the Kings x/Potts Point restaurants, cafes, supermarkets & the train station. For the price, it can't be faulted. I'm looking forward to staying there again soon.
• John (7/5): -
• David (9/5): -
• Estee (1/5): Vieze kamer met ongedierte - Helemaal niets . Een horror experience Een gevaarlijke onhygiënische bende . Deze faciliteit zou direct verwijderd moeten worden van het booking.com platform en aangegeven bij de plaatselijke autoriteiten. Dat laatste is inmiddels gebeurd
• Isabella (4/5): Small room, quite basic facilities but very central. Recommend short term stays - The hotel was central and in the nicer part of Kings Cross, with welcoming staff There was no reception, just rooms and no other areas to go to - which given the price we paid for the rooms seems a little steep!
• Darren (9/5): We will be back! - The hosts were great and gave us advice on great places to go see. The room & location was perfect. It would have been 10/10 but the shower had low velocity and a mixer instead of playing around with 2 taps would be better. Otherwise excellent!
• Sanket Shantilal (5/5): -
• Andy (7/5): -
• Rafael Esteban (5/5): - Buena ubicación con precios razonables. En las habitaciones se escucha bastante ruido del hall/pasillo del hotel. La limpieza está aceptable, tienen cucarachas y los elementos de uso en la habitación (cafetera) están oxidados.
• Olha (10/5): Amazing - Hospitality from the heart. George and his sister are very friendly and welcoming hosts. The place is very clean and in excellent location. The bed is very comfortable and the room is quiet with all the necessary things (TV, hair dryer, fridge and kettle) for a comfortable stay at the hotel. Will definitely consider it for future stays.

• Nina Louise (10/5): -
• Kyle (7/5): - The room was well cleaned and the location was quite good. It's definitely a little older but that is somewhat expected given the pricing
• Ahmad (6/5): -
• Guest (10/5): -
• Julia (9/5): Good stay - Fairly spacious, clean and good location close to the train station. Easy and flexible check in and check out. Was able to store luggage after check out which was very appreciated.
• Matthew (6/5): -
• Noga (5/5): It was ok - Location The host was not nice. The room was damp.
• Lorena (7/5): -
• Novi Ineke Cempaka (10/5): - Very clean, strategic location, easy access to restaurants and supermarket, the owner also very friendly, we had a great stay!
• CAROLYN (10/5): Fantastic location - Fantastic location 5 mins walk from station and supermarkets. Plenty of places to eat out and easy to get around using public transport. Luggage storage a bit limited.
• Martin (8/5): Good -
• Seth (10/5): -
• Cissy (8/5): Affordable bolthole - This was a large unassuming room. A quiet space in an awesome location. Nothing fancy but all you need. George is very friendly and you feel at home and safe here.
• Toni (7/5): - Great location High window I couldn't see out
• Razia (7/5): - Comfortable bed and linens Small and pricey for facilities and location. Needed a physical key to enter and only one key was provided.
• Abid (7/5): It’s good property, and very nice host . - Clean and well arranged Rom doesn’t have ventilation or windows, so a food smell seemingly frying fish from outside would fill the room with no way to escape .
• Gert (8/5): zu empfehlen - zentral gelegen, nette Umgebung auch am Abend, ruhig in der Nacht
• Martha (7/5): Adequate - Location. Communication with staff. Pretty small. Not that it mattered to me, but I don’t remember seeing anywhere that it is not handicap accessible.
• bruno (7/5): -
• Goldspink (10/5): Exactly what we were hoping for - A quiet location but right in the middle of what is going on in kings cross. Check in was faultless, we arrived late at night after a very long journey and access was simple Walking distance to the ferry that takes you into Circular quay, the opera house, and Sydney centre. Buses are on the doorstep and very good, Very nice places to eat, locally, and we found all the prices very reasonable, certainly not expensive to be there. Can't think of one thing, such a good experience.
• Marina Romanenko (10/5): - Мне очень нравится этот отель,приезжаю сюда уже не первый раз! Дружелюбное отношение, отличное расположение,в спокойном месте,при этом очень близко к центру. Рядом метро Kings Cross и продуктовые магазины. Очень люблю это место! Сейчас я приезжала на три недели по учёбе и мне было очень комфортно и спокойно.
• Aurelie (8/5): -
• mike (10/5): - There was not a lot to dislike. Simply a room with a very comfortable bed, excellent toilet and shower...with plenty of hot water and somewhere to hang your clothes. I found it a bit complicated finding the lock combination for the door key...maybe booking.com made it more complicated than it should have been.
• Angelique (8/5): Emplacement au top ! - La proximité avec les bus et la gare La possibilité d’arriver même en pleine nuit grâce à la boîte à clés. Très bonne literie. Une bonne insonorisation au milieu d’un Quartier qui bouge beaucoup Le petit café juste au pied de l’établissement Dommage qu’il n’y a pas un système de rideau occultant en plus des stores pour vraiment couper la lumière et pouvoir dormir le matin. Salle de bain un peu désuète mais qui fait l’affaire
• Olivier (6/5): Looks more like a youth hostel than a real hotel - Quality of beds Location near public transport Noisy No shade at the windows Heavy cooking smells from the restaurant below Unpleasant cooking smell
