all reviews

The hotel is conveniently situated for Darling Harbour and Central Station.Just love staying in China Town. the beds were very comfortable. convenient location, good restaurant attached.Central position. central location. The staff.It was a cheap hotel to come back and sleep in.It was in a good location. The hotel itself and the staff were great. Noise from rubbish truck at 3am one morning was the perfect but unwelcome wake up call... 20 mins worth. Apart from that, noise no problem.The bath plug was uncomfortable when having a bath.I stayed in Aarons Hotel in January 2007 and would recommend booking a Deluxe Room rather than the standard as it was infinitely more comfortable. The hotel is opposite Paddy's Market so can be noisy with early morning deliveries (Thursday, Friday and Saturday only) if your room is situated at the front of the hotel.bathroom needed a complete renovation, had to keep flip flops on feet while having shower, bath dirty and scratched,. Inefficient staff (no record of prior payment) very noisy room next to lift. Hotel needs to invest in double glazing or sound proofing.small room with very few accesories. Room very small with poor facilities. Far from CBD.One staff member who checked me out was rude.Water in shower cycled through cold and hot. This was dangerous trying to bath small children as it would get very hot then moments later go very cold.The room was not clean at all, we found a cockroach in our bed, and thehotel staff were not helpful when trying to resolve the matter.
