It disappoints me that previous reviewers have rated this hotel poorly ... such people expect to pay for hamburger mince and receive prime fillet steak! This hotel IS what is SAYS it is ... a place 10 minutes walk or 3 minutes shuttle bus ($5) from the Sydney Domestic Airport where you get a bed, and a place to shower so you can get up and catch an early flight to wherever. Yes, the room is small. Yes it is sparsely furnished. Yes it has a shower and toilet in a "room" the size of a standard shower recess. And yes the only "dining" facility within walking distance is McDonalds or Krispy Creme Donuts right next door, BUT what do you expect for your 99 bucks or so? This place serves the purpose for which it has been designed ... if you want to stay somewhere for more than one night as part of a holiday in Sydney, then this is the wrong place for you ... spend over twice as much and stay in a more luxurious hotel and stop whining about Formule 1.

Room was extremely small, barely large enough to put luggage around bed, there was no shower stall, water soaked entire floor. Not enough towels provided, had to ask for more, no face cloths were provided. Bunk beds- need I say more...

December, 2008
Close to domestic terminal, far from the international terminal. Shuttle service from the airport is needed. Few places to eat close by, although a new McDonalds should be open soon right by the hotel. Room clean and basic but small with little room for suitcases. Bathroom is not appropriate in that there is no shower stall. Internet is expensive.

Fantastic locale fro domestic flights. Good clean room and amazingly quiet given that you are so close to the airport.

Handy to domestic airport is this facility's only redeaming quality. It is overpriced for what you get - they don't even have tea and coffee making facilities in the room. Service/reception is minimally adequate - all they do is take your money and give you a key.
Date of Stay:
October, 2008
Very small room but just OK for overnight stay. Took taxi from airport as 10pm arrival and severely told off by taxi driver for such a short fare. Pity they don't have a pickup although short distance. People don't know where to go until they have been there once. More for younger backpacking people I would say. Good shuttle for $5 to Internation Terminal in morning.

Very basic room. Don't expect too much and you will be ok.

The hotel is located very conveniently about an easy 5-10 minute walk from the domestic terminal. The staff were helpful and courteous; the room was small and basic, clean and quiet. Facilities, however, are very limited. No electric jug or telephone in the room and no restaurant in the hotel. They do have microwave dinners for sale and there is a Krispy Creme outlet nextdoor. (Is that indigestion I can feel, or just the memory of same?) The hotel has a minibus to take you to the airport for morning flights (7am-10am), at $5. For the lone traveller, the lower price and convenient location offers a small advantage over more expensive but more confortable airport hotels. The cost/comfort ratio is more attractive for a two or three person group willing to share a small room. Bring your own shampoo.

Rather noisy up until everyone went to bed. But quiet after about 10.30. Coffee machine broken. No food outlets nearby except for the donut place. But excellent location and price and the staff were extremely helpful, polite and friendly.

Very cheap hotel next to the airport, no-frills whatsoever. You get what you expect for the price, which is again very cheap. Walking distance to the airport and another metro station.

Very clean and extremely convenient, the best option for those on an early flight.

This is a very convenient low cost, basic 'Hotel'. It is a 10 min walk to domestic terminals. Initially is was very low cost - about $60/night, but more recently demand has seen price increase to over $100/night which is too much for the level of service. It is VERY basic, a bed, towel, TV and clock radio, with simple ensuite - no Tea and coffee facilities. It was clean and adequate, for a stay before an early flight next day...

Great for a low cost short stay.

Cheap to stay and handy walk or shuttle bus to the airport. Minimial room features but still comfortable. Only complaint is low water pressure from water saving shower heads in rooms is not good. I am a devoted water conserver, but the showerheads/water pressure in this hotel makes you end up spending twice as long in the shower just to rise-off.

October, 2008
Very good option for people who want to stay close to airport watching their budget

The hotel was what it claimed to be. The attraction for us was that we could walk to and from the domestic air terminal. Basic but adequate and quiet. Would do it again if a similar overnight stay was needed.
Date of Stay:
September, 2008
Wouldn't want to stay there for very long but it met our needs for a one night stay before an early morning flight.
Date of Stay:
August, 2008
Location is great. The closest thing that Australia has to a capsule hotel. You get the bare minimum - everything is user pays. Car park = $5. Internet = $2/20 mins. No phone in room. The blokes at reception lack manners - you probably have to pay more for politeness. Overall it is adequate for a night before flying but not the place for a honeymoon.
