Frommer's Review

With an additional 25 rooms added to this smart YMCA hotel in mid-2008, this great value hotel has become an even better choice. Rooms are small but some can sleep up to four adults. Queen terrace rooms have a small sheltered balcony with table and chairs. Among the useful facilities are a 24-hour front desk, safe-deposit boxes, and a hip cybercafe (and there's also wireless broadband access from your room). Hair dryers are available on request. Guests have free access to the City Y health club, the largest hotel gym in Australia, which offers aerobics classes, personal trainers, and massage (for an extra fee). Several rooms are designed for guests with disabilities, and there is also easy access to the gym.

Facilities:
Cafe; bar; health club; tour desk; coin-op laundry w/iron and ironing board; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
