Room was great, and facilities lovely. Real shame that the pool is shaded in the afternoon as it meant it was too cold to swim but other than that a great stay!

The property has been pleasantly renovated since the previous management. Very clean with excellent upkeep. Incredibly friendly, professional, and welcoming reception staff. Close to bus stops. Convenient location for UNSW Paddington campus, cafes and bookshops. Awesome Mexican restaurant, El Primo Sanchez on-site.

Booked a deluxe room with balcony facing Oxford Street at the end of our 2 month holiday. Stayed for 6 nights and found the room to be really small for no more than IMO a 2-night stay. No storage at all in the room or the bathroom, not even a shelf or drawer. One member of staff went out of his way to upgrade us for our last two nights so that we had a more relaxing time and room to pack for our flight home. Great location for the bars and restaurants on Oxford Street and very accessible bus links to Bondi and Circular Quay practically on the doorstep. Thanks to Dillan (hope this is the right person) for saving our stay.

The hotel is funky, clean, and staff are very nice and welcoming. The rooms are small, but cosy. The bathroom had a bit of a mechanical smell and the shower was a bit claustrophobic.

Does the job well.
Very convenient to St Vincent's Hospital, comfortable but small room and low set bed - no proper chair. Great pool, pool bar and restaurant. Hotel a bit pricey. Handy to be able to park a car there but make sure you book it in - very little room for parking.

Very small rooms, and very noisy due to the bar downstairs. Great place for a weekend out though
