Formulae 1 Hotel, Kings Cross
Searching
around Sydneys
Kings Cross for cheap hotels is a chore even
for Cheap Charley. I was very lucky to find this cheap hotel.
This is Cheap by Sydney standards at only $79 a night.
I received a room on the 5th floor and was rewarded with a great
view of Downtown Sydney including the Sydney Opera house
the Sydney Bridge and the Harbor area.
With in two blocks you have the Kings Cross underground
station which connects you into Sydney's excellent rail
system. Ummmmm Something to note about this neighborhood there
are very friendly females about asking you if you would like a
date, you might keep this in mind as the area does attract this
type of activity esspicially around Brooke St.
The
rooms were fairly basic and everything worked. Air con, Small
TV, hot water. There are vending machines for cokes and
snacks. There are many places to eat in the neighborhood,
laundry room is available as well as a storage area which you
will need as the hotel like all hotels apparently in Australia
require a 10 Am check out a major bummer. I did talk them into
allowing me to check out at 11am and I had stayed there for 4
days.
The
hotel also has internet but it seemed to be expensive there is
lots of internet in the area especially by the Kings Cross main
business area near the famous Coke sign.
Kings
Cross Hostel?
Formule
1 also allows 4 people to a room so if you do the math it comes
out to be the same or less as what you would get a real Sydney
hostel. I don't know how comfortable it would be if you had 4
people in a room but you do get the additional amenities that
you would not get in a traditional Hostel room like the en suite
and the Air con and TV in the room.
