Jean M TripAdvisor review

Starting 7th November we spent three nights at Ibis Styles in O’Riordon Street, Mascot out near Sydney airport. We were on our way to Tasmania after our short Sydney stay. Upon arrival at the hotel we were greeted by a very unfriendly receptionist who had a “couldn’t-care-less” attitude. We expected the room to be small but this was taking “small” to a whole new level. We found the air conditioner to be very noisy and all night long we could hear water running/dripping somewhere. Possibly it was in behind the air-con system somewhere. Needless to say, we didn’t sleep well. In the hotel’s favour we had comfortable beds and nice clean linen. However, we did find the larger bed was constantly moving. We just had to brush past it and it moved. Between the end of the bed and the wall was where we had to position our suitcases. There was nowhere else in the room to put them. We had no more than 6 inches of room to walk past the bed. It was precarious to walk past the bed to the door or to the bathroom. At the end of our miserable stay we were checked out by the same disinterested receptionist. Sadly, we had booked and pre-paid a room at this same hotel for one night before we flew back home. We felt that seeing as we would be in a different room we would enjoy this second stay more than the last. How wrong could we be. At check in on Sunday 17th November I explained how disappointed we had been with our room on our first visit. I asked if we could receive a complimentary upgrade because of this. The receptionist said it was not possible as the hotel was fully booked. When we got to our room, we found it was a carbon copy of the room we had before. It was evening and both of us were exhausted. Desperate for a cup of tea we discovered we didn’t have a kettle. We tried for ages to ring reception to ask them to organize one. No-one answered the phone. We tried to ring them via their restaurant line – no luck, no-one answered. In the end my husband trundled downstairs to reception and requested one in person. I might also add that we didn’t have a teaspoon – but we did have a fork – not very helpful when making a cup of tea. There were two mis-matched mugs, one of which had a chip taken out of it. So, we made a cup of tea. Before we had the first mouthful, the power went out. We were in total darkness. A quick look through the door and we saw everyone else’s power was still on. So, of course, we attempted to ring reception to report the issue. And, or course, the phone just rang and rang. We were starting to wonder if our room phone was faulty. I googled the hotel’s main phone number and rang from my mobile phone. Of course, there was no answer. The room was getting hotter and more stuffy. Husband decided to go downstairs to get some help. Reception told him there were no other rooms to move us to. We would just have to deal with it until his colleague began his shift in two hours time (midnight). So, I decided I was going down there and I wasn’t going to take no for an answer. What followed was akin to an episode of Fawlty Towers. The person who organized the kettle for hubby was back at reception. Poor fellow had an incredible lack of English. He just could not grasp what I meant when I said we had no power in our room. He flapped around (imagine Manuel from Fawlty Towers) desperately trying to assist when he didn’t know what the problem was. He thought I needed another kettle. Then he scuttled off towards the kitchen and I could see him filling up some mugs with hot water. By then I was starting to shout that we needed power, not another kettle or mugs of hot water. Finally, the penny dropped. He told me to go back to our bathroom, find a grey button and press it! Frankly I had my doubts but he was indeed correct. It immediately re-set the power. Why were we not told this by the other receptionist who insisted that we had to wait till midnight for another staff member to appear. The last couple of times hubby and I went down to reception it was extremely quiet so I don’t know why the phones were permanently unanswered. Lastly, the carpet in our room was filthy. It was stained everywhere and significant splotches of paint were up one corner of the carpet. There were biscuit crumbs on the floor too. It really was unhygienic. We were originally intending to have the hotel buffet breakfast on our last morning there but under the circumstances we decided we didn’t want to spend one more cent at this establishment. We ate our breakfast at the airport. So, not even in a million years would we stay at this place again. Bad management maybe? Strange that the Ibis in Hobart was so different. There was more room in the bedroom there and the staff were amazing and friendly. How can two hotels under the Ibis banner be so different?

Good for a 1 night stop over

Our room was very basic but perfect for an overnight stay for an early morning flight. The airport shuttle is an added benefit.

Well located
