GGuest UserAs we have never stayed in a hostel type of accommodation we knew we were gong to have our own bathroom before we were pleasantly surprised to have a room with a television, tea making facilities and china & cutlery. The weather was extremely hot and to have a modern fan was also a bonus.
The building was old so the facilities were adequate - the bed was firm, the linen was rather thin but the towels were newish. Have had worse towels in a motel.

Ffanfan0718A little distance from the station but quiet and comfortable around. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast looks simple so I didn't try it. The overall evaluation is good.

GGuest UserCheck in was great I went out for dinner and when I returned I opened the door to find the complete window frame and window smashed and my belongings scattered everywhere. I raced down to reception to advise the person on the front desk only to be told that there had been a 3 hour blackout at the motel and they were sorry 😡
I had to prompt the receptionist to give me another room which he did then he came up took a look and said let me know if anything is missing & walked away, do I started collecting my things only to find that my TAG heuer watch had been stolen so I lived into room 101 from 107 couldn’t sleep thinking I was going to get burgled the second time. Upon checking out I advised a different receptionist that my watch had been stolen he said we are very sorry but I will talk to management to see what we can offer you that was at 10am this morning and haven’t heard a word from the motel management 🤷♂️ absolutely disgusted

VVicki HughesOverall a good 3 night stay at the Hermitage. Large spacious room, fairly comfortable bed/bedding. Don’t know about aircon/heating as it was not used during our stay.
Unfortunately it is not shown in the online pictures that the hotel is surrounded by commercial facilities on 3 sides and a highway on the 4th.
Great to have a fridge and tea/coffee making facilities as well as a toaster (as breakfast is not offered at the hotel). Unfortunately, though you can cook toast there were no plates or knives supplied to put any butter or spreads on it.
The restaurant meal was great, service was really good, wine list small (inexpensive) but fine.
The whole experience was let down by our final night when we ordered in-house meals from the restaurant at 7.30 and when we called at 9pm to enquire how much longer they would be we were informed our order had been lost. Went to sleep hungry. Attitude over this issue was abysmal.

TTerrenceHoeVery clean room with a big kingsize bed for me one tourist to sleep on is such a comfort in Sydney.
Love the tv and tv programs especially project on Channel 10.
The french lady in the office is helpful and will assist you in everything and the cleaners are also friendly to talk to.
Overall i like the place and is 10 mins to Kingscross station and just 15 mins walk to Royal Botanic Garden
Thank you Bayswater Boutique Lodge.

DDr. Justin HattI was travelling to Sydney for New Year's Eve and, of course, finding an inexpensive hotel for this time can be quite tricky. However, El Toro did give a good offer and having booked the hotel much earlier in the year really helped. I do not expect much from ”motor inns”, but this one was well equipped with a bar, mini casino, and its own takeout restaurant that was open late. Its location is about 10 - 15 minutes walking from Warwick Farm station in Sydney, so it is somewhat out of the way from most things, which may be why it was less expensive than other locations.
The room was very nicely prepared. There were some noticeable improvements made to the room I had and it looked very well presented. However, there was a concerning crack in the wall neighbouring the next room, but nonetheless, it did not become an issue to worry about for the trip. The biggest problem I had was with ants coming up from behind the bathroom sink; although thankfully in small numbers each time, they were continuing to appear throughout the trip, but at least they remained in that particular area of the bathroom only and never sought to migrate to other parts of the room. However, on the day of checking out, I noticed a lot of ants coming into the room via the gap under the entrance door, so I had to be somewhat quick in heading out. Although the ants appearing is quite the concern, I still gave this location 3/5 for cleanliness because, for the most part, the ant situation was isolated to a singular spot in the room and the rest of the room was well maintained.
The motor inn will very likely rectify the situation with the ants rather quickly and will seek to make repairs to the wall. It does look like it has more recently been making efforts to improve, so I anticipate it will continue getting better in the future.

GGuest UserI was lucky enough to have my room ready in advance, before 2PM and since my flight arrived early in the morning, that was really nice !
Cathy was also a wonderful person in general, throughout my stay.
The room is pretty big, with a sink and a fridge. 👌🏻
The room I had is next to the common area however people weren't too loud, especially in the evening despite it roughly being the dinner time so that was nice.
The area is very chill, a few schools and houses around so not loud at night. It is, however, situated on the planes' route and they are pretty low in the sky since it gets close to the airport. But there aren't any at night (around midnight until 6AM I would say) and it's not every 5 minutes either.
The sun set pretty early at that time of the year and to me, I felt like the neighborhood lacked lights for people to walk around but it wasn't much of a bother and not something the lodge can change, so just a heads-up to have a small light/enough battery on the phone to use when coming back from your day trip activities.

JJojoy91The room is nice tidy good experience, the bed was with the same number self locked in the room which is good.
The floor might make squeaky sound when you walk but it’s okay.
Female bathroom was bit disappointed. Space was so small and don’t really have the place to put clothes and the shower head need to be replaced and the water just like pissed down and way too hot or cold.
6.1/10
GGuest UserThe interior and the shower needs to be updated, very old and outdated. The floor in the shower fills up quickly and not running down the drain fast enough which was quite unpleasant to experience. The place needs heating or a heater as it can get quite cold during the winter. The queen bed was comfortable and warm and the room was spacious for 1 person. The reception is friendly and always smiling although it would be good to know in advance if my single bedroom that I booked for another booking so I didn't have to lugged 2 luggages and my handbag with my laptop into up and down the stairs as there are no lifts. I was surprised that a woman knocked on my door at 9:45am that she was ready to get into my room when in the booking, it says check out is 10am. That made check out a very annoying experience for me. The location is great as it's a short walk to the beach and Cronulla centre.
