"Cute clean boutique hotel with shares bathrooms. Street parking. Close to good restaurants. 30 minute walk to botanical gardens and circular key."

"Room and overall service is plesent."

"The hotel service was decent, and the staff were quite responsible. I stayed in a 4-person dorm room with bunk beds. The pros are that it's cheap, the beds are reasonably comfortable, and you can cook in the kitchen. Plus, all the foreigners I've met so far are young, polite, and enthusiastic, making for good conversations. The cons are that it can be noisy outside at night (perhaps because my room was near the window), and there was a slight odor in the dorm (according to my roommates). Also, there was no light in the bathroom."

"Thank you for the stay! The service was good, the amenities was not great but good for a quick stop"

"Perfect location and plenty of shops and restaurants to explore thank you"

"Appalling Service Rigidity & Evasion! Holiday Blackout + Ignored Emails = Deliberate Sabotage of Customer Rights!** I booked your hotel at **12:00 AM on June 9** for a 14:00 check-in that same day (an immediate stay was intended, but I selected the wrong option). **Within 5 minutes**, I realized the error and rushed to the hotel, only to find **"NO STAFF AFTER 10 PM"**—no night shift, no emergency contact, a total service void! The next morning (June 9), I arrived at **8:30 AM begging to correct the booking**. The front desk coldly stated: **"Only the manager has authority, and today is a Public Holiday—he’s off."** I sent an email on the spot, showed the sent receipt, and was promised "the manager will reply." Yet, **for 24 hours, my email was ignored!** On June 10, I returned, only to be told: **"The stay date has passed—no adjustments possible."** This is outrageous! I reported the error at dawn on the 9th, but your hotel used "holiday absence" to delay, then hid behind "deadline expiry"—**a calculated scheme to shift blame and pocket my money!** **Three unforgivable failures:** 1. **Nighttime service blackout**: No staff or contingency plan post-10 PM, abandoning guests in crises; 2. **Holiday operational collapse**: Manager off-duty with zero backup authority, deliberately blocking solutions; 3. **Communication fraud**: Demanding email requests then ignoring them, intentionally wasting customers’ remedy window. **Verdict**: This is not "policy enforcement"—it’s **institutionalized trickery**! Exploiting timing gaps and systemic flaws to profit from honest mistakes. **Avoid this hotel at all costs if you value your time and dignity!"

"We booked the private room and really good! Room was clean, had TV and good location. Bathroom was good, could have been a bit cleaner but still usable. Breakfast included was yummy! Thank you"

"Really happy with our stay at Spicers. Loved that it was in the city but felt out of the way with the lovely tree lined streets. Close to great cafes like Thai Power and Tuyos. Walking distance to grocery stores, Kings Cross station and Royal Botanical Gardens. The hotel does have stairs but they insisted on bringing our bags up so that was nice. The handcrafted welcome drink was lovely and the cupcakes in the room were delicious. Comfy bed and pillows, big screen tv. Very helpful and friendly staff. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it."

"Great location, nearby King Cross train station, nice and lovely hotel in old fashioned house on a quite street. Not far away from Sydney centre, opera and royal garden. But unfortunately saw cockroaches twice in a bathroom :( and maybe overpriced, but this is always in Sydney"
