I didn't like there were no plates. The tiny soap was so hard to get out of the pack. No knives and forks. No tea towels so we couldn't wash the cups, saucers and glasses.

Close to southern cross station which was great as overland train got in so late, 1.30 am and check-in was still available. Just no windows and looked like a prison inside hallway.

The property is very conveniently based near Southern Cross station and staff are very friendly. However the place could do with renovation. Creaking floorboards above kept me awake until 1am and mattress was uncomfortable.
