Before our trip we had reserved the Vibe Hotel, and cancelled it when we found this so-called "find," based on a gay website's recommendation. After our endless flight to Sydney, imagine our horror and disappointment when we approached what appeared to be a fleabag dump of a place with street people hanging outside the front door. Our first impression of... more

We spent 15 days in OZ. I planned the trip through Frommers, which I have heretofore found to be reliable. I only wish I knew about TripAdvisor before I made my arrangements. To Frommer's credit, every other place/excursion I booked was as descibed or better, so I think this was a fluke - albeit a terrible one. If you want... more

Everything was just so sub-standard, • The taps, toilet dripped, shower head broken. • Carpet dirty • Shower tiles mouldy • Old beds • Only a rabbit ear antenna on the TV with bad reception. • No clock, phone, microwave in the room. You need ear plugs to sleep. One day they didn’t even bother to change the sheets on... more

Be aware! The Wattle Hotel's Website is VERY deceiving. It may look cute on the outside. But the moment I walked into my shoe box-sized room, I knew I was in trouble. The walls were dirty and literally had writing on them from past room guests. The TV, Fridge, and some of the lights didn't work. And the A.C. was... more

Avoid. Dirty and infested with cockroachs. it described itself as a boutique hotel online, but nothing could be further from the truth. Whatever the charge you for a room, it's overpriced, unless it's $60 or less. more

I have never been so disgusted in my life. There is no lift to the room, the person that were attending us was very rude, as soon as we got there, I had a look around to see what it was like and let me tell you, I was utterly very disgusted. The bathroom was run down, taps were leaking,... more

This hotel was dirty. The stairwell smelled of urine and cockroaches scampered about the room. The only good thing about this hotel was its location. more
