This is my go to hotel when I am on a short stay in Sydney. It is cheap, has no pretentions and is on the direct train line to the airport. Sure the facilities are shared but no big deal for me . They are spotless and shampoo, body wash and conditioner are supplied. If food is required the bar has a kitchen and there are convenience stores just around the corner. I will be back in October and have already booked

The pub on the first floor was loud, but it was not a problem on the fourth floor where I stayed. My whole family could get a good stay at a very good price and a good drink at the pub. The traffic sound was a bit loud because the hotel is located in the center of the city.
