Cost effective - lots of road noise, and wasn’t as clean as I would have liked. But the staff were very nice and it was a safe room to stay in while traveling.

You can hear everything, from your neighbour flushing the toilet or brushing their teeth. But the big kicker was my 3 year old daughter found ecstasy pills in our room just laying on the floor and another pill in the breakfast area. Luckily she gave it to me to flush it immediately. I didn’t expect a 5 star stay, but at least a safe one. We also paid for a bed for my daughter which wasn’t made up, no bedding, pillows nothing. Won’t stay here again and I’m glad it was only for one night.

The ‘regular rubbish’ area was over flowing with bags of rubbish. The staff wasn’t very talkative and I was quite turned off by this. An elder gentleman who checked in before me card wouldn’t work on the door to his room, he came back to reception and the lady rolled her. Eyes, it’s not hard to smile, smiles are free so is kindness.

A Poor Experience at the Ibis Newcastle NSW
After alot of trouble with the rate quoted and charged and after complaining to the CEO I received a small refund and was told to book directly with ACCOR which was not available. I appreciated Hotel.com did the right thing & gave me the difference. I told everyone including the front desk as we were booking I am a regular patient at the local hospital and normally drive back and forth but this time had 2 appts back to back. I live in a rural community. However, when we checked in I specifically asked for a quiet room not facing the busy main road. We got a corner room facing the busy road and it was noisy all night. I'm sure the hotel was not full.

Absolutely absurd - $89 for the room. Filthpit
Honestly one of the worst stays i have had to endure.from the pokie room to the caravan type shower and toilet, the worst. Ibis offer tea and coffee however no cups or spoons. I used the end of my toothbrush to stir my cuppa. Pillows were flat and very much used and abused. Toilet roll holders a thing of the past supposedly. The toilet paper just sitting in the cavity. The basin thats situated beside the bed doesnt drain due to hair and who knows what else was absolutely disgusting. Little to no sleep due to the bedding and hearing the neighbouring suite defecating in their toilet. I would request a refund if someone would answer the phone.
