Reviews and Ratings
I had mixed feelings about my stay. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants, which was fantastic. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired in terms of cleanliness and upkeep, and the amenities were very basic. Overall, it’s a budget-friendly option if you’re just looking for a place to sleep, but quality-wise, it could definitely use some improvements.
I found this boutique hotel to be a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach, and the unique studio apartment had its charm. However, I was disappointed by the sparse facilities in the room and the lack of service during my stay. It’s affordable, but the overall comfort and cleanliness fell short of my expectations.
This hotel serves as a great base in Manly, close to the beach and local dining spots. I experienced three different rooms during my stay, all of which were decent, especially given the renovations underway. The staff was accommodating, making efforts to enhance my experience. However, some areas, especially the dated room decor and facilities, could use significant improvement.
My stay in a studio apartment was an interesting experience. The unique boutique style and proximity to the beach made it appealing, but I found the accommodations to be quite basic and not very comfortable. The kitchen amenities were sparse, making it hard to do any cooking, but the location was great for exploring Manly. Overall, it’s budget-friendly, but don’t expect much in terms of comfort or service.
