The proximity to the viewing area of Three Sisters (easy walk) was good. Easy access to town and restaurants (short drive). Our room was a good size and clean, beds were comfortable. The only downside was the external lights on our wing did not work, making access to our room difficult in the dark. I brought this to the staff's attention, and hopefully this has now been remedied.

The property area is quiet. The room is clean and tidy. Staffs are polite and helpful. Easy parking outside the unit. Most of the facilities inside the room are excellent. However, the trendy shower isn't very practical. The water stream isn't good enough especially for hair washing. Hope that another handheld shower head can be installed. Thanks.

Staff are so lovely Staff are very accommodating It was an easy after-hours check in and checkout The shower had good pressure and was nice and hot It had all of the basics that I needed The room was very cold and the heater didn’t really help. It looked like there wa WiFi was terrible - I could only get a weak signal if I sat in a certain place in the room. The tv seemed as though it was hooked up to the terrible WiFi and would freeze more often than not On the last day I went to use the iron but there wasn’t an iron in the cupboard, or an ironing board. To be fair, I didn’t ask for one as I had to leave before reception was open.

Convenient to 3 sisters

Close to 3 sisters. This is quite basic as it has been there as long as I can remember, 50+ years. So doesn’t have ultra modern features. It was comfortable and was fine for a 1 night stay.

I had the King Suite and it was light, clean and airy. It stated mountain views but I had to peer between trees to get a glimpse of rock. It’s more carpark views. I don’t have a problem with the carpark but don’t state mountain views.

Great Location, needing renovation

Stayed 1 night, room was in need of renovation. Bathroom had been tidied up with paint that was missing from tiles and walls. Bed was comfortable until 2 people slept on it and both would roll to the middle. There was hardly any room to walk down sides of bed. Curtains not block out, and do not fit windows properly, allowing street lights to shine in. TV struggled with reception and aircon kept shutting off. No water saving in practice - single flush toilet and no restriction on shower

My flights into Sydney changed and I arrived a day later than expected. They didnt make any effort to reimburse my room, even though I gave then the opportunity to resell it. There had been a storm and I was told there was no wifi becuse if it but al the other hotels in the area had wifi. I had to go and do my work in a different hotel during the day.
