Such helpful, and accommodating staff, and a very easy check in and out process. Great location close to Oxford St, and a short walk to the CBD area - with an amazing cafe downstairs - also with lovely and welcoming staff. And fantastic coffee! Rooms are great, we had a King room which was cosy but perfect for two. Bright and colorful, very funky, just like the rest of the hotel - it’s all very ...

Funky hotel, beautiful rooms and very friendly staff. Arrived very early at around 10:30am and was advised our room was ready for an early check in which was a great thing to hear. Thanks team, looking forward to our stay! EDIT: I did need to note that the TVs in the room were not smart, and we were unable to watch anything of a M rating or higher due to a lock. We were also unable to figure ou...

The overall room condition was not great. The toi...

The hotel is located close to the CBD and we walked to where we wanted to go most times. There are also multiple great breakfast places close by which is also nice. The view from our room was pretty nice and we even saw the opera house from our balcony. The room itself was good, it was spacious and had all the necessities. It was not the cleanest though, it has been some time since someone vacuume...

The price for value is excellent here. The place is super funky but clean and it's in an excellent location. I had a king bed room and it was comfortable (aside from the pillows being incredibly balloonish for some reason). Small note, the elevator was incredibly slow haha. All in all it has everything I need from a hotel, and I would stay here again.

I cannot say how friendly and amazing the Team is at the hotel. I have been staying just over a week and as first time to Sydney I needed extract information as to what best to see. Thank you Paul and I think other guy was Haig who spent a lot of time giving me amazing recommendations. The rooms are so alive with colour and I must say get a room with a Balcony as the extra space and the fresh air ...
