Great. Would stay here again for sure. Compared to what is around, Macleay lodge is well priced and offers a comfortable stay. Could say it is a bit noisy due to location, but, well if you want central location you cant complain. Oh, and if you have a lot of luggage be prepared to hike it up the stairs as there is no elevator :)

Great, affordable, and well located.
It was cheap, private, and in a great location.
9.3
I really enjoyed my stay here. I stayed in a single room. These are very small, but this (or rather the fact that my stay was cheaper for it) was ideal for me. The room was well fitted, with a sink, microwave, fridge, kettle, and toaster, which I found great, because it meant I could save a bit by bringing my own breakfast. The room had a TV which I didn't use. The bed was comfortable, and the stay was very pleasant.
The location is fantastic, you are within skipping distance of Kings Cross, and several good looking restaurants and bars, but the hotel itself is far enough away to be quiet. I had no problems whatsoever with noise during my stay.
However, if you are thinking about staying here, do make sure you realise that the rooms are small. I was aware of this before I arrived, and was very pleased with it, but would not have had I been expecting a standard sized room. I'd highly recommend it for solo travellers who want to travel cheaply, but also want a bit more privacy and quiet than a backpackers would provide.

clean, adjacent to almost everything, friendly staff
6.7
we were quite like the hotel basics, and since it was a budget hotel, we didn't aspect too much from it. anyway, the beds were just nice, toilet was ok(although it was a shared bathroom cum toilet), staffs were nice and friendly. the only thing i want to complaint is, the rooms which facing the back street was pretty annoying while garbage truck came in, and the truck came in 3 times in a single day!

Budget hotel, basically worth the money
A lot of food nearby; Surrounded by small shops; Not very far from main tourist destinations
7.7
It's a small room just enough for two people. Good thing is it has a basin in the room, bad thing is that you have to share the washroom with other three rooms. The washroom is quite clean.
The place is 10 minutes' walk from nearest train station, which is two stops from central station. Actually we can walk from Darling harbour to the hotel in about 40 minutes.
It's close to a lot of restaurants, bars and small stores, so you can expect quite a crowd outside the lodge. Of course it also brings great convenience.

Small but comfortable for solo travellers

Room size wasnt exactly a surprise to me - you get what you paid for. But I like that it has all necessary amenities. Room came with fridge, microwave, sinklet as well. Clean and comfortable and the size is good for solo travellers - why would you need huge spaces anyway. Think the reception helps to book tours etc but I didnt need their help. Even shared toilets are clean (about 7 rooms sharing one toilet according to staff).

Nice enough budget hotel
Worth of the money paid for, convenient to transit and supermarket, very close to many restaurants and bars.

Friendly staff, a bit old interior but very clean, however you have to pass the red light district to reach the hotel, so single lady traveler should be aware. Otherwise, an overall acceptable lodge hotel.
