호텔 소피아

Great location

Very comfortable and clean! Staff friendly, location excellent, will recommend to our friends!!

This was a hotel that is close to both Southern Cross and Flagstaff stations which meant it was in a great location. I was in the city for work so really just wanted somewhere to sleep. All I wanted was somewhere clean and comfortable. This definitely met those requirements. If you want somewhere to sleep that is cheap and close to everything, I would recommend this location.

When I got there, the wifi didn't work, nor the TV. I requested a late check-out and was granted one, however, the owner came banging on my door during a work meeting to say they were having a lot of people check in and that I needed to leave ASAP. This was an hour before my late check-out expired.

Pros: nice and clean, staff were nice and professional, 10 min walk from Southern Cross Station, large number of Korean restaurants only a block away. I confess it was a hotel room to sleep and shower in and not much more. The very standard double bed for 2 of us, took up just about all the room and judging by the fire escape plan, most of the rooms on the floor were the same smallish size. The bathroom was similarly on the small size. It was quiet enough, except for the bar fridge d The staff were nice when you could get hold of them but I think they were understaffed because the front desk was almost never attended (might need to ring the desk bell more than once). Closish to Southern Cross Station but not really handy for trams or other public transport if you want to get into the centre of the cbd by something other than foot. That corner of town is mostly offices.
