The cliff house at kangaroo is A BUDGET ACCOMMODATION HOUSE/MOTEL. the staff do not hassle the clients the staff are only too happy to be of service when needed but you don't really need them except for check in. The cleaner is a friendly person. The gentleman who owns it busts his butt maintaining the premises. There are beautiful mannered elderly people living there long term and they are looked after and they know that they are cared about. It is fairly quiet considering the amount of people in the area. Yes it's a four star system in my opinion it could be better and it could be slot worse. The air con is excellent the showers have excellent heat and pressure. You can feed the brush tailed possums out the back I counted four in a 50 square metres area last night. Total cost of 5 nights stay $580 that is the cheapest deal I could find.

The stay was decent. The staff and the people running the place, were lovely, kind people. The facilities however, weren't exactly top notch. The shower didn't heat up, the rooms weren't exactly the cleanest, (it wasn't dirty to the point where it was disgusting, but it could be better) and they had a problem with their smoke detectors. On our second day there, we were woken up by a smoke detector beeping. Naturally, we immediately evacuated the building, only to find out that it was a false alarm. Also, our room's smoke detector had a plastic bag around it, which most likely means that a previous guest was smoking. Now the stay wasn't bad and it certainly wasn't uninhabitable, but they have a few things to improve upon. 4/5 stars. Not a bad option.

0/5 — Filthy, infested, unsafe. Lucky to get out alive. This property was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. The room was filthy, clearly not cleaned, and the hygiene standards were non‑existent. I found bed bugs in the bedding and cockroaches in multiple areas, which is completely unacceptable and a serious health hazard. The noise levels were extreme at all hours, making it impossible to sleep. Between the infestation, the dirt, and the constant noise, the entire stay felt unsafe and deeply uncomfortable. I genuinely felt lucky to get out alive. I had to find somewhere else on short notice. This place should not be accepting guests in its current condition. Avoid at all costs.

We liked that it was affordable for us and close to Kangaroo Point cliffs and cafe. It seems like a little old boarding house and has a very long history. The reception staff were very friendly. The room was clean and simple. I nearly froze during the night as there was only one blanket per bed and the air conditioner while letting me set it to 30 degrees did not work. I tried to ring the office number but because I had come home late, around 11pm no one answered. The office staff let me know they could have provided more blankets early in the evening if I had asked. If I had have been warm it would have been a nice stay. I was concerned that it sounded like people were running around on the floor above us, all night. We have no idea what the sounds were coming from and were grateful that it had high ceilings. The room has the same layout in design as the advertised image but that image was perhaps photoshopped with different paint work, bed linen and blind. The room has a simple curtain. The shower was simple and had good hot water. Coffee satchels and milk was provided, it would be nice to include some tea bags too. If anyone wanted to stay here and were worried about security I wouldn't stay here as anyone could walk up the lane and into the B house. The door to our room had a simple press the button in lock.

Do not stay here. Room was nothing like photos, there were at least 2 cockroaches and several other bugs. Carpets needed vacuumed. The reception was a box with a passcode. Tried messaging and did not get a response for 12 hours. Could not sleep in the room with the bugs and air not working. Parking lot was full and saw a resident take her cat litter box out to the shared trash can. This is more or less an apartment building with some nightly rented rooms.
