It’s pub style accomodation, don’t expect the Ritz! For the price (a third of what you pay in a hotel chain) the accomodation was clean, staff friendly/helpful and the location was central to everything.
There were two individual lockable bathrooms (with large shower/toilet) per six rooms per floor. We never really had to wait and could always pop down a level if needed. A kitchen had cereal/milk for guests and facilities to cook dinner, handy for families. There were lots of stairs and no lift - maybe leave the 25kg suitcase at home.
You will need to wear earplugs to sleep (ask at the bar if you forgot them). If you sit by the window with a cuppa on a Friday/Sat night you’ll watch a parade of people going to dress up parties (what is it with that Sydney?).
There’s two convenience stores across the road open pretty much all the time. Our family room had a fan and heater but no AC. The bar fridge was cold and there were tea/coffee making facilities. We had fresh towels daily. The pub downstairs had some good specials but there are plenty of places within walking distance.
