Guest Reviews
- Tommy (1/5): One of the worst nights I have ever had in a hotel - Ok it was a budget hotel, near an airport yiu to an hotel near an airport for some rest before your flight, it was so noisy, road noise so windows were obviously poor, I was only there for 4 hrs but was forced to leave my card details to pay for any damages I was arguing with the guy at midnight.
All I wanted to do was sleep for a few hours. Light in bathroom did not work, it was cold, the bed covers were not sufficient, very posstthe worst night I have had in a hotel, it states in the advertising 500 m from terminal, 10 minute walk through open roads as no pedestrian access
- Cathrine (7/5): - Tæt på lufthavnen
- Pramod (8/5): -
- Alisonaus (2/5): - The staff were most helpful, knowledgeable and polite The other guests between midnight and 0330am who were shouting, knocking doors, closing doors loudly, running up hallway, general noise all done with no consideration of other hotel guests.
- Meg (5/5): - Close to the airport, very budget friendly. The other ibis located at the airport looks better
- Bianca Catharina maria (8/5): Va bene se hai un volo presto - Vicinanza aeroporto
Personale alla reception molto gentile e disponibile
Servizio deposito bagagli gratuito perfetto Camera molto basic
Rapporto qualità prezzo un po sbilanciato
- Dave (2/5): -
- Natarsha (10/5): -
- Karen (8/5): - Close to airport N/a
- jose (10/5): -
- David (6/5): did the job for intransit - Close to airport and Skybus
Close to Fast Food Expensive for quality
Breakfast not available for early start.
- Barbara (7/5): - Cheap for near the airport. Still a fair walk from the terminal.
- Damian (8/5): Acceptable overnight accommodation at airport - Convenient to airport Traffic noise
- Hope (3/5): Wouldn’t stay here again if other options were available - Decent price Very old and dingy - needs updating. Very noisy and bright lights from under doors etc. also about 10 walk to airport with no shuttle if you have mobility issues wouldn’t be ideal, or if it’s a flight in the middle of the night
- Mollie (1/5): I won’t be back - The male staff member was kind and polite. The bed was terribly uncomfortable. Pillows were old and dirty. Top bunk bed not made. Tv didn’t work. Vents in heater and in shower were full to brim of dust! Windows didn’t shut properly and room stunk like cigarettes. Not very clear that there is no transport to airport
- Alison (6/5): This is the cheaper option if you need to stay near the airport for a very early departure as we did. - It is close to the airport but in the rain was still a bit of a walk. It is basic, the shower reminded me of a caravan bathroom.
- Trevor (10/5): Very comfortable and great stay! - Best place and walking distance from airport. N/A
- Aileen (5/5): Don't expect too much - Location to the airport and that it had parking Room was basic, plastic drop in toilet and shower cubicle. Staff talking and giggling very loudly outside the room without a thought to anyone that might have just got off a flight trying to rest or still sleeping.
- Eric (9/5): -
- Elizabeth (6/5): Budget hotel is the right description. - The staff were sensational. It is advertised online that there is no elevator, which was fine. The man when I checked in took my suitcase up for me even after I said that I was fine.
The bed was comfortable.
There was so much signage from the airport, it was amazing. So easy to find, even in the dark! The bathrooms had no proper ventilation, so there were warnings that steam would set off smoke alarms.
There was a hair on the bed when I arrived. And it looked not completely clean, but it could have just been that it was old. It wasn't filthy, but just felt a little icky.
No PowerPoint next to the bed. Not a deal breaker, but inconvenient for overnight phone charging.
The price of the breakfast is not advertised, after asking I learnt that it was $10. I chose not to participate, felt steep for some cereal, could be included in the room price.
- Dewan (10/5): -
- Liam (6/5): -
- Dkedward (8/5): - Affordable and within walking distance of the airport.
Just stayed overnight after a long flight, had everything i needed. Bed, ensuite bathroon and tv. Nothing really, it's a budget hotel so don't expect 5 star luxery.
- Kate (2/5): Not worth it - It was quiet
Staff were friendly and helpful The bathroom is awful, the shower door has to be shut and it steams everything up making it slippery and soaking wet. Also our shower head had to be held while using.
- Karen (7/5): -
- Weihua (7/5): -
- Darren (6/5): Convenient - It’s at the airport No lift, small room, too expensive
- Michael (10/5): Good place to stay will be staying there every time I fly to and from work - Location price Nothing
- Teah (3/5): - close to the airport dirty, sheets had stains on them and no hand soap
- Hayley (3/5): - Very close proximity to airport Kept up all night by what we assume we're cleaners being in the hallway most of the night yelling to each other making alot of noise and slamming doors. Roof had bugs stuck to it in general wasn't the cleanest.
- Stephen (5/5): - Close to airport Noisy.
Very small room.
Everything is very old.
The basin was separate from the toilet/shower.
- Ankers (9/5): - Location and position Clean and tidy
- Paula (10/5): -
- Annette (3/5): - I didn't like the distance walking from airport with heavy bags, in the reviews no one reported actually how far it was to walk and there was no footpath approaching the motel.
Room was clean but not what we had expected. Tv was small and room was noisy from traffic. Shower was unusual making it feel like being on a boat which made it difficult for my partner to step up into, however the shower had good water pressure.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
We did not stay the night as it wasn't what we were wanting.
- Maree (9/5): Met our needs. - Convenience to the international airport! Ease of access. Ideal for a short overnight stay prior to an early morning flight!

- Tara (8/5): - Fantastic proximity to airport and great value for a short stay. Would be great if it had a lift for heavy luggage
- Alan (6/5): Average but you get what you pay for - Location to air port No directions from airport
Small cluttered room
- DONPAPADON (7/5): -
- Gina (5/5): - The distance fr airport says 500 m, except first timer me even with google map was lost direction, but some lady assist airport rescued us. Ride Sky bus til Qantas Terminal, then walking to that path, you can’t tell if you never been. So asks right away to avoid delay, I was walking back & forth as initially was directed in circles. The stairways up to 3rd floor, your luggage size can make you swear f###!!! for the budget price. Young peeps should be okay if their muscles are strong for heavy baggages! Embarrassing (but best option than sore arm/muscles) but had asked the reception for muscles upon check in, on check out asked the help again!🥶
There’s some noises on the hallway early that super annoying, when you’re hoping to catch more snooze.
- Debra (7/5): - Close to Airport
- Steuart (9/5): excellent - location
- Terry (9/5): -
- Shane (8/5): -

- Alan (8/5): - Value for money
- Kim (6/5): -
- Bruce (7/5): It met my expectations - Bed was fine - it was as good as I would expect for a short term budget accommodation It was a small room BUT it’s what I expected for the price

- convenient check in / check out
- as per description & photos

- Rhonda (7/5): Only stayed a couple of hours between flights so worked well for us. - Walking distance to airport Very small room
- Linda (8/5): -
- Camenzuli (9/5): - It started to rain outside. I need to go out to get some food. The guy at reception offered me an umbrella. If it rains it's difficult to walk to the terminal
- Akiko (5/5): 休憩 - 空港から徒歩圏内
スーツケースを押しても10分で行ける
喫煙は玄関先で出来る シャワールームは狭く、トイレまで水浸しになる
タオルはバスタオルのみ

- WASHINGTON (10/5): -

- andrew (8/5): Stay near the airport - Wasnt too far from the airport Only down side was the tiny shower and toilet space and hard to get the bag past the bed
- Garry (5/5): Ibis budget hotel - Convenience to airport. A bit overpriced for a 'budget' hotel.
- Christina (7/5): -
- Joseph (8/5): - Location, great staff, coffee and some snacks provided for breakfast Poor soundproofing,
- Nicole (5/5): - Not much really but it was ok for one night and close to the airport Felt more like a cabin extremely small
- Didier (10/5): - accessible à pied depuis l aéroport..
c'est basique mais c'est efficace pour une nuit en transit.
- angela (7/5): Clean , comfortable bed but room too pokey. - Location Bathroom door squeaky
- Leigh (1/5): - Nothing Everything
- john (9/5): - Nothing fancy, but clean, neat and tidy. The mattress is starting to get very tired.
- Harald (7/5): -
- Michael (10/5): -
- ahmet (8/5): enjoyed - initially, it's a budget hotel, you know what you get, hotel's policy matches the requirements based on limited definition, i.e. proximity to the airport, attentive staff, cleanliness, moderate bteakfast menu limited area for cubicle and shower cabinet
- Christina (8/5): - The hotel was supposed to be just a cheap accommodation near the airport, but it was very nice, clean and comfy, personal was friendly and it wasn't too busy Don't expect luxury, but you get more than what you paid for
- Williams (6/5): - Very noisy.
- Greg (9/5): - Handy to airport
- Max (8/5): -
- RENEE (9/5): -
- Wendy (10/5): -
- Joanne (6/5): - Met our needs as we had a very early flight to catch Room was tiny. Barely any space to move around beds (not great for 3 people in the room). No space for luggage. Bathroom door was very narrow, with a step up, and would not meet australian building regs. Noting here Bathroom would not be very accessible for extra large people or people with accessability needs. There was some noise from airport and traffic (to be expected given location, but we used ear plugs
- SALLY (7/5): -
- Susan (5/5): Cheap and nasty - It was at the airport Room small. Awful ensuite. Long walk from the airport.
- David (5/5): - Close to airport.
- wm_shi (8/5): -
- Janine (7/5): -
- Susan (7/5): Great for early flights. - Close the airport. Easy quick walk. A basic hotel that is clean and fit for purpose. No elevator for bags which are not fun to lug up stairs. The staff member did offer to help but that wasn’t practical.
If it is going to rain take an umbrella as it’s not undercover.
- Karen (5/5): -
- Mathew (10/5): Good value and very convenient. - Basic but very clean and great location for early flights out of the airport.
- Rebecca (5/5): -
