Allowed us to extend stay for a few hours. Hotel is clean, not luxurious. Basic fridge and mic. A 5 min drive into North Sydney. Belle's Home Cooking is fabulous place to eat.

Very clean and convenient location to all essentials. The building is older but, well looked after. My only real negative observation is the shower in unit 6 does not get hot, just bearable. Fair pricing.

We stayed because our ferry was cancelled twice. The staff let us extend our checkout and told us to stay as long as we needed to. That in itself will mean we will definitely stay here again. Rooms dated but clean and comfortable
