  Dirty and tired

  10 Jan 2025

  Positive: quiet, friendly and helpful staff, good coffee shop outside Negative: tired and dirty rooms and bathrooms, poor housekeeping standardsI could live with the fact that the door opens straight onto the corner of a bed, that the loo is in the way of the shower door, that the blackout blind was broken, there were brown stains on the framed picture on the wall and the bathroom has a toe-stubbing raised tile surface. But dirty is another thing entirely.When I complained about the mould in the shower, the staff cheerfully offered to move me to another room. The first option was bigger but even dirtier, and the second option (which had darker tiles and the broken blind you couldn’t open) seemed at first better but after moving to it, l realised it wasn’t. That first room also had a sofa with stains on it that I don’t even want to think about. I know housekeeping had been into the room on my second day there because the bed was made but nothing else had been done - the dirty tea mugs were still there and had not been replaced with clean ones, the carpet hadn’t been hoovered, and the shower still had mould. It’s always a bad sign when a place says “well nobody else has complained” - so please feel free to complain if you don’t like mouldy showers at this place, knowing that you are NOT the first, no matter what the staff say!!I wanted to like this place as it is in a great location but it desperately needs a complete refurb and a deepclean. I’ve stayed at plenty of other places in Australia that have been much cleaner and also much cheaper - there really is no excuse for this.

  avoid at all costs better options as all the rude staff work here

  29 Oct 2024

  as a long term guest of over 100 stays i will never stay there again. You would think you would be greeted with a hello welcome back but instead robots that have no personality and hand you totally incorrectly filled out paperwork as they seem lazyno room service yet the phone has a number to dial for room service where you get an arrogant female on the other end.so no literature in the room to explain anything. if you want a beer then it down to the eatery to get it yourself. i waited 40 minutes to get served along with others. all said never come back here. the hotel is full of air stewards and i bet they get room service

  Great location and good value

  26 Jan 2023

  The bayswater is in a great location and while it may be a little older it is still a good value option. Close to everything. Parking can be an issue. Avoid the the Wilson parking next door, it's a scam, they'll hit you for 120 overnight so the lost ticket option is cheaper. Go with the hotels parking option for $30

  Perfect location

  03 Aug 2022

  Perfect location, well appointed large suite. So many good restaurants right across the road. Friday and Saturday nights were quite loud from the clubs outside (we were street facing). It's faster to take the stairs from the third floor down than the elevator. Would definitely stay here again.

  Extremely small facilities and Noisy rooms

  23 Jan 2022

  The facilities are nothing like the pictures. I am short and you cannot sit on a toilet seat unless you are sideways. The residence was extremely noisy. I was woken by Jack Hammers at 12.30am on night one. I was then transferred the following morning to a back room that during a slightly rain night created a large dripping noise from a tin vent outside the residence. I would for the price take up accommodation elsewhere. The administration of booking a residence for multiple nights was difficult as we had to sign paperwork to get another room card. The car parking indicated that we would get $40 off for the voucher when we only received $15.
