16 November 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Shower towels were provided, and the location was 1 block from a public transport station. The room was clean. It was a bit noisy on a Saturday night. Kings Cross is a bit seedy after dark, and I think we would have enjoyed staying closer to "The Rocks" or Bondi Beach areas. But overall, it was a good place to stay.

04 August 2009 michael would recommend this property

Liked: Our ensuite was good but a trifle small compared to the pics on net. I think it could have been styled in a more trad aussie 1800s feel to match lovely terrace exterior. Our room at the back needs to be soundproofed from street noise especially at 4am!! and the cleaning staff were too noisy with their buckets at 8am; and they used too much bleach in bathroom cleaning which took all day until late evening for the powerful irritating smell to clear.
