This popular and friendly B&B is well
worth considering if you want to be within walking distance of the Kings Cross action, but
just far enough away to get a decent night's sleep. Deluxe rooms have either a queen- or
king-size bed and a combined shower and tub, while the smaller standard rooms come with a
double bed and a shower (no tub). If you decide to bring your kids here--or to any other
Kings Cross area hotel--keep in mind that they'll get an eyeful of prostitutes and sex
bars on the way to and from the CityRail station. The two large superior rooms come with
two single beds and two more that can be locked together to form a king, and a separate
living room. One comes with a small kitchen with a microwave and hot plates. All rooms are
very clean and comfortable and have private bathrooms. There is also a small guest lounge
with a TV. A fully cooked breakfast is served up in the cafe below. Guests also receive
10% off meals at the adjoining Thai and Japanese steak house restaurants. Smoking is
allowed in all rooms except the lounge. Flights of stairs and no elevator (lift) might
make this a bad Choice for older travelers or those with disabilities.
