Yes, 3 stars for condition. Let's deal with that. This is where you're saving your money, the property is quite old. But the important things - everything is clean, everything works, and the staff are helpful, and it's a short walk to Summer Hill station. Aircon? Yep. If you need to work in Sydney for a couple of nights? Perfect. You don't want to pay twice as much for a plush place you're only going to sleep in. You want cheap but you definitely don't want nasty... you found the right place.

It’s great if you just need a place to lay your head for the night. Parking was easy, check-in and check-out process was painless. Water pressure in the shower was nice. You get what you pay for.

The hotel is very old and run down. While the room was clean it hasn’t been updated since the 80’s. Parking spots are very small and two mid size cars could not park comfortably next to each other. Stayed there as I was attending a wedding that night close by. The guests at the wedding were social workers and advised they put homeless people there for short term accommodation. I returned to the room at 10.30pm and there was yelling and screaming and banging outside until 4.30am and it was very uncomfortable. Then at 6.30am children started screaming in the car park. I do not recommend you stay here.

Appreciate included parking but the spots are very tight. The TV was set to French and the areal connector was loose thus not usable. TV was not setup for casting. Basic clean accommodation...

We arrived early and staff were very accommodating. Gave us one room to stay in while the other was getting cleaned, very thoughtful. Housekeeping staff were above and beyond friendly and nice. Room was clean enough, small but quick weekend trip was good enough. One of our rooms the shower screen was cracked, the soap dispenser was chipped/cracked, the entire basin was cracked. Facilities outdated def need a fresh paint and some work. The rooftop terrace whilst a great idea was clearly under construction and no seating so we were limited in space in our rooms. The table and chairs provided in each room were a round Bunnings outdoor table with 2 plastic chairs, other guests removed their chairs and placed them in common areas to drink and stay up. Very noisy stay. Bed was comfortable enough. Location was good, light rail (tram) less than 10 min walk as well as train the other direction. 7/11 across the road for snacks.
