Wonderful

Room nice and clean. Large bathroom and quality bedding. Staff member helped us get netlix which wasnt working in our room. Car parking was limited but thankfully we had a disabled sticker so managed to get a bigger carpark that worked for us. Staff were friendly and helpful and we had a pleasant overnight stay.

Travelled with family and small children, Business traveller
If I could give 10 stars for staff I would. I had to travel with my 2 kids while my husband was having surgery so needed something close to the hospital. There was an error with my booking however it was generously rectified. Facilities are excellent, really clean and food is delicious. The pool was a life saver for my autistic child for regulation.
Highly recommend staying.
CJ and the other staff we absolutely fantastic very welcoming! Highly rated.
The room was absolutely fine, small but that was all that was needed. The bed was very comfortable.
The only thing I would say is the music from the closed pool bar was loud and not needed as there was no one there as closed. It was loud until 9.30pm and then music came on at about 8am. I could hear through my window.
I would also say the smell from the kitchens was quite intense down the hallway but wasn’t in my room.
But 10/10 for staff
Super convenient and close to establishments in the area

Convenient location and the room was modern and clean however the tv remote did not work and the room is very hot (has a split aircon in the room but it wasn’t very effective). The staff were friendly and helpful but the desk isn’t manned consistently. There is an unpleasant smell that permeates the floor and room from the kitchen which I think is coming from the grease trap in the hotel kitchen. It is made worse because the hotel corridor and room is very hot.
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.
