Liked: Two minutes walk from Stanmore train station. Staff are pleasant and helpful , the rooms were very clean , actually the whole place was very clean the showers could do with a slight face lift but generally very well kept. Access via swipe keys was very good. Good mix of locals, long stayers and short stayers all seemed friendly and helped keep the place in order
Disliked: Nothing other than the showers could do with a bit of cheering up but I'm not picking really.

Liked: * Closeness to public transport. Convenient to places I wanted to visit* the continental breakfast was convenient * the outdoor seating areas were open and nice* the lady on reception- Zorica was friendly and helpful* the room was clean and tidy
Disliked: * My room was very hot and having the window and blind open compromised privacy.* the small fan couldn't cope with the summer conditions and there was no air conditioning* The reception desk was rarely manned* Because so many people shared the bathrooms, they weren't always as clean as you'd like* I arrived on a weekday and finding parking close with a large bag was initially difficult

Liked: WiFi good, kitchen was ok everything you need is there., the toilets are quite ok, and the double room is god as well.Is a good value for the money if you are thinking in a low budget stay though the train to Sydney will cost you 3.7$ single trip.
Disliked: Just small details: on the top of the wardrobe (really, really really dirty) minimun 3 months without cleaning on the top of that. Reception is closed after 7pm, payed 0.50$ to print 1 page (with 3lines) would be just nice detail if i would not pay, anyway (i wont get poor or rich about it, but is the small details) the guy in the reception was not helpful at all ( maybe a bad day, that is not guests problem) it just looked the people were working that for obligation and they have no boss (because they were not nice, helpful, and they "work" 3hoyrs a day). The furniture, deco, seats really need to be renewed, they look bad. It's a shame to have a place that could be so much more than it is.
