Guest Reviews
- Elizabeth (10/5): Had a fabulous time, was easy to access and the bed was super comfy. - It was exactly as expected cosy and warm vibe. The shower and toilet were abit small but I suppose that goes with the fact that it’s cosy.
- Carolyn (6/5): - Close to Enmore theatre.
- Shelah (8/5): - Loved the location Limited furniture no hanging
- Drake-Brockman (6/5): -
- myriam (10/5): -
- Jessica (6/5): - I’m 5’10 and the bed was way too short, I didn’t fit length wise, and the mattress was really hard
- Millar (7/5): -
- Zaetta (8/5): -
- Leigh (4/5): Won’t go back even though location was good - Great location Rooms very small, bed against the wall & still no room to move around. Bathroom tiny and couldn’t sit on toilet straight as it was cramped and was set into a small corner.
Had to change rooms as first room reeked of cigarette smoke even though there is a no smoking policy!
- Clay (4/5): Disappointing at first as it was much smaller then advertised but all and all not too bad - The location was really good, bed was super comfortable, internet and steaming was fast Staff were a bit cold, no elevator, room was tiny to the extent of not being able to fully sit on the toilet because there wasn’t enough space, shower was so small you can’t bend over, no microwave in the room
- Sieu Pheng (9/5): -
- Melanie (9/5): -
- Karen (9/5): Overall cozy and comfortable - Room was cozy and warm, beds super soft Bathrooms need an upgrade, and the Tv would do well with speaker for better sound quality
- Mila (7/5): -
- Belle (7/5): -
- scott (10/5): - It was clean and tidy and the staff where helpful. Nothing it was fihen
- Jan (8/5): -
- Conway (7/5): It was lovely for a short stay. Close to all in needed to do. - Convenient location Bathroom could have been a little cleaner
- kim (8/5): I always stqy here in sydney - Budget price but always clean and comfortable It would be nice to have a bedside light in room one. the overhead light is too bright
- Sam (8/5): Brilliant location, budget friendly. - Location in Newtown, close to friends, pubs, food and public transport for adventures. All of the staff were happy and friendly and helpful. Bit tired and grotty (botched DIY repairs, dripping tap) and noise from planes and King St traffic was challenging.

- Andri Thor (8/5): - Great location and and staff
- Rachel (10/5): Very good location and cute stay - Very good location and cozy The shower is low pressure but still good
- Jeffrey (8/5): A friendly budget option in a great neighborhood. - In heart of Newtown (ethnic & veggie restaurants & cafes, vintage & bric-a-brac, used book shops). Great for independent budget travellers. Friendly staff, confortable lobby. Fridge in room. Could have used a lift. Lack of table would make it sub-optimal for business travel (which I wasn't, so OK.)
- Wendy (10/5): - Location
- Shauna (7/5): Great location - The location was great. Staff friendly. The to didn't work. Then even after telling reception of the problem & they said it would be fixed it wasn't.
- Raelene (8/5): - Great location for what I needed.
- Jeff (5/5): - Close to venue for music gig Bed was hard, shared bathroom was very unclean with toilet in the shower
- Jay (2/5): - It was so very noisy in our room, an inconsistent air conditioner sound consumed the whole room. Very basic accomm.
- Lee (7/5): Well located compact stay - Great location. Super helpful staff. Access to kitchen facilities if needed.
The room was very small but fine for 1 or 2 nights.
Balcony for fresh air, but quiet when closed.
- Nathan (8/5): -
- julie (5/5): Ok for a short stay. Budget accommodation. - Great location. Walking distance to station, Enmore Theatre and cafe strip.
Beds clean and comfy. No lift. Two flights of stairs to our room.
Air conditioner was full of mould and noisy.
Bathroom was very small and shower head broken.
- Dylan (1/5): -
- Gary (7/5): - Electrical power points were loose.
- Christine (6/5): -
- lee (8/5): - I went to enmore theatre, hence my stay in sydney.
It was close by, priced well, very small rooms but that was my expectations.
I would stay again for the convenience of the location.
- Toni (8/5): We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the comfortable room. - Very comfortable beds, great staff and location. There were no flannels / face washers provided.
- Oscar (10/5): Awesome - I love this place, close to everywhere
- Kerry (6/5): -

- Drew (10/5): -
- Remi (8/5): Très bon rapport qualité prix - Emplacement incroyable en plein cœur de Newton, le personnel est très accueillant. La chambre était propre, les sanitaires assez anciens mais propres aussi. Rien
- S (10/5): Perfect - Great staff. Clean. Comfortable. Great location
- Lisa (1/5): Not impressed!! - Close walk to different restaurants No parking, staff tried to charge me extra for children that I had already booked and paid for. I had checked in and had the room key and was only asked to pay extra when I asked which of the 2 rooms I booked had the sofa made up. Staff also harassed me by texting & ringing while I was in a meeting to come and pay extra for my children, also came knocking on our room door while my children (teenagers) were in the room alone, asking them to call me.
- Gemma (9/5): A nice place to stay - Clean comfortable room Cold shower, half flush toilet, heavy door that was hard to open and close securely.
- Elaine (5/5): - It had what I needed. Close to convenience shop. How small the room and balcony was for the price.
- Noel (9/5): -
- Caitlyn (8/5): -
- Lindsay (7/5): Ok - Location and clean Replace bathroom
- Monica-paula (1/5): I left after two hours as no one was there to assist me and it was dirty and stank. - Location The room smelt like roach bombs
- Pamela (9/5): Very convenient - The two staff at reception when I checked in were amazing, courteous and helpful. The taps ar the bathroom basin dripped.
- Ella (4/5): -
- Kylie (8/5): overall good - very accessible the bathroom drain had a bad smell
- Caitlin (7/5): -
- samuel (2/5): Not Value for money - The Service The Bed / Pillow / Bathroom was really bad
- Robert (7/5): - The location is great.
- Gabrielle (4/5): Disappointed because it was so different than what was advertised. - The room itself was pretty clean. Shockingly small. Do not believe the photos. It was smaller than any photo on the property page. We booked the standard twin room with a shared bathroom and when we got there it was two twin beds pushed together. The room was so small we couldn’t have pushed them apart even if we wanted to. I’m glad I was with a friend I would have been comfortable sharing a bed with anyway. There was no price listed anywhere for the minibar and was charged $10 for water from the bar. The shared bathroom was old and not the cleanest but it wasn’t the worst I’ve seen.
- Ashleigh (7/5): -
- Vanessa (4/5): Would not stay there again - The room and the man at reception was nice. Communal bathroom. There was only 1 shower and 1 toilet per level and in the same room.
The elevator was not working.
- Theresa (7/5): - Location Better suited person at the reception, it was quite difficult to understand the accent of the receptionist at time of check in, he was very nice and polite though.
- Anthony (3/5): Poor -
- Peter (5/5): -
- Naomi (2/5): - The location was good. The bathroom smells of urine. And be was uncomfortable
- Tomas (6/5): Easy stay in a great location - Great location. Quiet room. Comfortable and simple. Shower was only very hot (scalding) or very cold (freezing). I didn't have time to talk to staff about it as I was in a rush in the morning.
