Amy (1/5): - This stay was far from acceptable. We experienced cockroaches in our room which the hotel staff did nothing about and actually just laughed in our face when we told them about it, there was someone else's clothes left in our room as well as numerous aspect of the room which were not acceptable. Cleanliness should be a top priority for any hotel and considering this one only had 8-10 rooms you should expect it to be significantly better than what it was. We were offered no sort of compensation at all for the discomfort we felt during our and have tried contacting both the hotel and booking.com directly and have been ignored despite having photographic evidence for everything. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone, definitely not worth the money as it wasn't a cheap stay.
Jake (8/5): -
Anna (3/5): - Nothing. The staff were nice I The room was adjacent to an outside smoking area... Therefore I couldn't open the window for fresh air. No where to hang clothes. I wasn't given the upgrade which I agreed to take. The towel rack fell off the wall. The tap was very loose (afraid it was going to fall off) Requested a late checkout (30 minutes) which was refused unless I paid a full day. The room staff knocked on my door to leave room right on check out time, to which I replied with give me 5 minutes, but continued to knock.
Bill (6/5): -
Leesa (7/5): Perfect for a short stay - Clean good location friendly helpful staff good for the cost Would have liked to open windows but mosquitoes with no screens
Georgia (1/5): Waste of money - Well located with numerous shops nearby & not far from the beach Bathroom hadn’t been cleaned well - if at all
Goorts (5/5): - Location and area Staff wasnt helpfull and hospitable. No interest or kindness shown.
Anthony (5/5): - Location is well-served by frequent buses and within easy reach by bus of Bronte and Coogee beaches and Bondi Junction shopping. The pub downstairs is bright and friendly, Also nearby is another pub, cafes, a small supermarket, bakeries, eateries, and convenience store. No bedside table and no other table at all. Nowhere to place luggage except on the floor, nowhere to hang clothes (no closet, rack or anything), no hooks, Furniture was just the bed, one chair and a small towel rail in the bathroom. Also no aircon, only a fan.
Joan (5/5): Disappointing - To give the cleaner some credit the room was clean, however it had a humid, musty smell. The room was hot and humid with only a loud fan to circulate the humid heat further. A large unsecure window faced onto the roof garden. We had to keep the window open throughout the night to get some air. The TV didn’t operate due to the lack of signal because there was no where to plug in the aerial. The furniture was old and tired. The condition of the room does not reflect the décor and environment of the pub/bar downstairs. Thankfully our room wasn't located on the very busy intersection main road. We realise the prime Sydney location but we don't believe there is any reason not to improve the accommodation.
Lucas (7/5): - Bed was broken and very uncomfortable, mold all over the shower curtains.
Thomas (8/5): Comfortable. - Clean, comfortable rooms above a pub. Lovely staff, good meals and cold drinks at the bar. What else do you want? Rooms are a little stuffy. Go downstairs and have a beer.
JOHN (8/5): Clean, comfortable, inexpensive. - Comfortable, clean room. Slight noise from downstairs, hardly noticeable. Chilli Prawn Pizza for dinner - GREAT, just a hint of heat. GUINNESS ON TAP in the bar downstairs - BEAUTIFUL!!
Lily (9/5): -
Andrew (7/5): -
Christine (10/5): - Not the first stay. Always happy with location , staff and facilities Small problem. I slept on the bottom bunk and there was an annoying SQUEEK every time I moved.
nick (1/5): DO NOT STAY HERE - worst place we have ever stayed - Nothing- dreadful The room was dirty and smelt overpoweringly of urine. Rusty or broken items ( kettle etc) Fire alarm went off at 6.30am - no fire safety signs, no fire exits and no one arrived to check the building or that customers were safe. We were never told it was a false alarm and spent one hour on the street in our pj’s. Left the building. , as not confident we were safe.

Rashleigh (7/5): - The room was large clean and comfortable. The location was so noisy. My room faced a 5 way intersection with busy traffic most of the night. Other pubs I have stayed at had double glazed windows which blocked out nearly all of the noise. I am lucky I took earplugs, otherwise I would bearly have slept.
Henry (7/5): - Centrally located with the convenience of a pub and restaurant downstairs.
Grant (8/5): -
Carroll (4/5): -
Chris (5/5): There are nicer properties to stay at less cost in the area - Location Room was shabby left over shower shampoo container still on top of shower door no cover over exhaust fan and light in bathroom
Em (2/5): Feel very disappointed & ripped off. - Location- close to stadium for event. Room was dirty, tv antenna cable didn’t work. Shower was dirty & still wet, as well as mouldy shower curtain. No bedside tables, or table/bench of any kind. No air conditioning or ceiling fan, just standing fan which was covered in thick dust, blown through the room.
Poladi (2/5): -
Pine23 (5/5): Hotel que no invita pasar más tiempo que salvo para dormir - La ubicación, es un punto intermedio entre el centro de Sydney a 40 min en bus, y las zonas de playa 30 min andando. El personal es simpático El ruido, al tener un bar abajo se escucha la música hasta altas horas de la mañana. Las cucarachas, encontramos 5 en los 2 primeros días. Algo inevitable, pues los suelos son antiguos y con grandes fisuras por donde se cuelan. Aunque la habitación es grande, se echa en falta mas mobiliario para guardas ropa o cajones.

Cat (4/5): A woeful dank place - Lovely bar staff member helped w my bags and arranged an extra duvet From the inept check in to the dank cold rooms it’s a place to avoid The floor reeks of stale smoke there are no black out blinds or heating Questions sent before check in went unanswered Easy potential to improve woeful

Mary (5/5): Rooms have potential but need a lot of work. - Location Rooms are old. No heating. Furniture falling apart. Doors and locks stick. Nowhere tj our things except on top of the old mini fridge. No wardrobe. Noise ti be expected being a pub.
Maureen (8/5): Perfect for my needs, thank you. - A very handy position at Bondi Junction. A pleasant 10 to 15 minuite walk to Westfield shopping centre and the train station. The staff were very helpful and friendly. A lovely old building. A pleasant pub with meals down below. My room was in the old section, so I don't think that part has central heating.
