ริดเจส แมคเคย์สวีทส์

The room was so small and basic, there was no pop up plug in the basin, the walls of the alley way had holes in them and were extensively chipped. noise of doors opening and closing were extremely noticeable

Excellent location and helpful friendly staff. Loved our stay.

Lights didn’t work in lounge and shower was small

Moss on Wood room service was great, large room and comfy, will stay again for sure

nice view of the city

Quality accomodation

As you walk into the lobby, you are greeted by a friendly reception area, and staff. The area is clean, and very well looked after, so my expectations were high. Unfortunately that’s where it ended for the good times. Once we hopped out of the dodgy elevator, we walked the 6th floor hallway to our room. There were holes in walls, doors painted white, while others were varnished timber, windows were not sealing, which made the wind howl, and just a general uncared for vibe amongst the place. Then we got to our room. On the surface it looked fine, until we saw multiple stains on the carpet, a pair of socks under the tv unit, a broken dishwasher, and honestly quite a dated interior. We walked to our bedroom to find that one window above the bed had the locking mechanism broken, so it would not close all the way, leading the the wind and rain absolutely howling through 24/7. I had to sacrifice a shirt to the window just to keep us from getting soaked in bed. Our bedroom door had been punched through at some point, and the nails from where they reattached the door skin were still visible. Not to mention the terrible patch job over the hole. The shower head was the cheapest available, and did an average job, and the lack of furniture on the balcony really made the moss growing stand out. For over $500 a night for a 2 bed apartment, this one is an easy miss. Not anywhere close to what we expected from a Rydges establishment. Won’t be returning!

Needs facelift

This property needs some refreshing. There was nothing particularly wrong with it but it was tired and dated. Not up to Rydges standard.

Very good stay I was impressed

The service at check in was wonderful

.

The room, bed, bathroom, parking were all ok however the aircon vent was filthy and looked like covered in mould. The old $100 deposit to be repaid in 5+ days is rediculous - should be refunded much more quickly.

The property was in an ok area. From our balcony, we could see graffiti on the building next to us. The room was nice & we really enjoyed our stay here, but the last 24 hours - they had a leak or something in the hallway & the area right outside our room smelled horrible like dead fish or something. Not sure what happened. All in all, we stayed 4 nights & we had a good time. The room was comfortable & was what we expected. Would recommend to anyone staying in this area, just note it’s not perfect.

Quiet area with easy access to dining options

Rooms are not sound proof and very noisy from outside noise. Wasn’t hot weather but the air conditioning system was not getting cold enough

We were upgraded to a room with a disability shower which was not what I consider an upgrade to be.

Great location staff were fantastic definitely stay again

Great location close to pubs and clubs. Excellent room. Great breakfast too! Will Donnelly stay there again next time I'm in Mackay

Great location
