Had a record hot spell for 2days, 85F and so a little warm at night ##### Laurent Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jodie 13 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We waited 2 hours before we could get into our room as I didn’t receive the codes need to enter the premises or our room. It wasn’t flash but was clean & comfortable. The Manager was very accommodating & helpful in settling us into our room once we eventually gained access. There wasn’t any toilet paper available so we had to provide our own. Excellent location, limited timed parking is a bit annoying but we were lucky enough to get a free park out the front or just around the corner. ##### Jodie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### ed, rose bay 5 Mar 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities tried to ring several times but no answer ##### ed Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kerry 19 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Made to feel like an inconvenience not a guest Staff were not friendly or welcoming and we were made to feel like an inconvenience rather than guests. My mate went to ask about a parking permit Saturday morning and was greeted with 'Is it a quick question' on entry to office. Not even a 'Good Morning' to accompany it. Understand it's not the Hilton but some customer service wouldn't go astray. ##### Kerry Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael 10 Jun 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was clean. As there was availability, the property manager kindly upgraded me from a single to double room. But for $220 for one night I would have expected an ensuite. The view of the petrol station was noisy. Might search harder for another next time ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 6 Mar 2021 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very disappointed with customer service. It was advertised that our room had a private bathroom and got here and there was no private bathroom- it was shared. We paid extra for the private. There was no one on reception due it covid but this was not advertised on any of the booking information. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 18 Feb 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was very untidy , I think the only thing that was cleaned were the bed sheets. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Roxanne, Melbourne 5 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness It’s in a good position though parking is difficult. We had to move the car every two hours from 8am. Room is tiny. There were no blankets just a sheet and light cover so we had to keep the heater on all night as it’s the middle of winter. Ok for a quick overnight overall. Like a youth hostel. ##### Roxanne Stayed 1 night in Jul 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Clement 3 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bien placé et agréable Nous sommes arrivés après les horaires d’ouverture de l’accueil et le système mis en place pour récupérer les clefs de la chambre et top !! Un petit message au numéro affiché et une personne vous répond rapidement avec toutes les explications !!! Les salles de bain sont très propres, le lieu est agréable, les chambres sont bien équipé. Juste nos draps n’étaient pas très propres.... heureusement nous avions nos duvets. Mais c’est quand même une super auberge de jeunesse !!! Bien placé aussi ![Les draps ne sont pas propres ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8D373768B16F04156AF2C5B9311B4BE5659A66981583277310540.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Draps sales ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F8678E4AE0BCF4A854297E4A74EC5D35D1EA26711583277312070.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Clement Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 10 Jan 2020 Disliked: Staff & service Was over charged twice to the sum on nearly $300, every contact number goes to message bank or is ignored. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 17 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice and close to everything. Very clean and quiet. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 14 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Not a guest house This accommodation may be listed as a guest house, but it's a youth hostel full of backpackers/communal room and kitchen full of 18-year olds from the UK and Europe. If that's your thing, go ahead and book. If you want to stay in an actual guest house, I'd recommend booking somewhere else. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 12 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Only downside to my stay was other guests being inconsiderate with the noise levels. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 7 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities location....spacious room...facilities suited us...security great....fans...own little fridge...excellent ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 6 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Didn't like requirement to photocopy drivers licence. Known this would not have stayed. Part way to identy theft. Bed collapsed not real happy ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 31 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities So clean. Very friendly lady at check in. Very helpful. Close to the beach. We would 100% stay here again. The place had character and not a standard run of the mill hotel room ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara, London 10 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Great location and clean rooms The area is fantastic and the location is great, really close to the beach, restaurants, supermarkets, etc. The rooms are quite small though and you need to jump to get on/off the bed. Very clean, the communal kitchen was a plus for us. ##### Barbara Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Feb 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great but could be amazing Great location and a nice feel to the place, with a few changes could be amazing! 1. rooms were tidy and comfortable but needed a deep clean as quite dusty 2. Air con needed as some rooms were far too hot 3. Bins in kitchen are too small so fill up very quickly with all the guests and have swarms of flies around them. 4. More staff needed! Jasmyn was amazing but literally didn't stop all day and seemed to be in charge of guests requests, bookings, front office, cleaning and managing the phones. 5. Lots of unnecessary extra charges. We stayed for just under a week and if we wanted our bed changed during this time, or a new towel, there was a large charge. Also checking in between 12-2 was extra, as was checking in past 5. We were quite shocked by all of this as we're used to paying a lot less money for hostels which try to accommodate all of the above and usually with no extra charge at all. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Aphrodite 26 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One night only Very small room ideal for sleeping only and really ok for one night only. Location is great ground floor room was very quiet but could use a waste bin. ##### Aphrodite Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam 26 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Magnificent Manly Fantastic clean n fresh vibe, super close to beach & just a short walk to Manly Corso with many bars n restaurants...highly recommend this property which is more than 2 star should be 3 star rated ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Dan 8 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great option for the price! Great place for the price. Very comfortable bed and clean. Shared bathroom and a little noisy, but no complaints for the price. Great location too! ##### Dan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Dec 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Thanks to the team at Sandy Bottoms. I really enjoyed my stay. Comfy, clean and central. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 7 Dec 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ロケーションは良し 海に近くロケーションは良いです。チェックインもスムーズ。 ベットはギシギシ軋む二段のパイプベッドですが、 枕カバーもシーツもフレッシュな状態です。 日中は部屋にエアコンがない為部屋はサウナ状態。 前の人のおじさん臭が気になりました。 カーペットには、細かいゴミが。清潔とは言えません。 三日間滞在しましたが、その間、一度も部屋の掃除、タオルやシーツ類の交換はなし。 セイフティーボックス完備とありますが、部屋にセイフティボックスはありませんでした。 Wi-Fi無料とありますが、チェックイン時にWi-Fiのパスワードを聞くのを忘れ、 後で聞こうと思いましたが、殆どの時間宿に人がない為、事実上使用できませんでした。 チェックインからその日の夜までは何故か部屋の電源が使用できなく 同様に人がいない為、解決不可。（夜以降は使えるようになりました） これらはお願いすることができれば、ある程度改善できる可能性もありますが、 逆に言えば、デフォルトがこの状態だということです。 バス・トイレ共同で、1泊約9000円と決して安くない価格ですが、 それをどう考えるかだと思います。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### MAN TAK 28 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Happy stay Close to beach, convenient.
