Unique, but typical for the area - period mansions and grounds converted to range of accommodation, from shared/hostel rooms to private ensuite rooms. Full shared kitchen facilities available, but it's Glebe Point Road, so you'll run out of days before you run out of options. One cautionary note, if outside of an evening, the possums are so active, you're likely to be showered with tree debris... = )

There’s no soundproofing at all you hear all of the noise. I was in a private room but every time the front door would open I could hear it which meant that my sleep was disrupted quite a lot. The dining services and common areas aren’t that nice either to be honest. I’ve stayed in quite a few hostels globally and this is probably The least exciting one I’ve been in.

The "Online check-in to avoid wait times" is ineffective, as you still need to visit reception for manual activation of the electronic keys. Reception was unattended from 12:30 to 13:15, leading to nearly an hour of waiting, despite having already completed the check-in online. Additionally, the bed had crawling insects (not bedbugs, but similar), and the fridge still had a frozen cockroach inside, likely from a previous spill.

Despite being advertised as “pay at stay” my card was charged the morning of my stay. I then used the online check in that was requested “to save time at check in”. Upon arrival I was informed my payment had “failed” despite clear records showing the money had left my account, I was then charged a 2nd time before I was allowed to use the room I had already paid for. Reception staff were very unwilling to help me with this issue and would not allow me to check in without this 2nd payment. They even argued with me that I had not paid. The app I was requested to download also continually said I was not checked in. I tried to call reception multiple times throughout my stay and not once did anyone answer the phone. The desk is meant to be manned 24/7 and this is not the case for at least an hour there was no one available to not only me but many others trying to check in. I am also still waiting for Expedia to be able to contact the hotel in order for the refund to be paid to me and they are having trouble getting calls or emails answered to rectify this situation. I will never be booking this hotel ever again and will never recommend it due to this shonky practise of billing.
