I work in the area so i find BBB convenient. Yes it is an old place and probably has a lot of stories to tell. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Remember the price matches what you get and if you just want to lay your head down for the night then this place is economically perfect.

Great location
My friend and I stayed at the bnb for a concert at Olympic Park. Perfectly located to catch the bus into the Park and lots of great restaurants a short stroll away. Room was tidy and comfortable, and the extra bathroom down the hall was handy. Check in is actually from 3pm, not 2pm like booking sites state. Will stay again next time I see a show at Olympic Park.

The manager is rude and demanding. The room is extremely substandard. You are not made to feel welcome for the breakfast which was a avery poor offering.. If i was responsible for offeri g tbis establishment to my clients i would be most embarrased and remove them from the listings immediately. I have taken photos of many of the problems. Broken windows , lack of adequate clothing storage etc. And will make them available if required.

Burwood B&B takes advantage of a large 100+ year old house in nice condition, so atmosphere is somewhat quaint and historic. Everything was clean and readied for our stay. Nice hot water and location only a short walk to facilities. Good continental breakfast provided. We recommend you stay, ideal for family or groups.

Our landlady was most helpful and found us a room on the ground floor when she saw I was using a frame. Breakfast was a bonus, the railway station was very close. The buildings are dated, and could do with an overhaul but for convenience and service it is very good

Discusting hotel
Turned up to be told 3.30pm check in when it stated 2pm, lucky they agreed to let us in at 2pm. The room we stayed in was terribly unclean. The staff weren't helpful at all. Our beds didn't have pillows when asked they said they would bring one. We are still waiting. The bathroom was so dirty I had to shower with thongs on. The toilets we're that discusting that both my husband and I put toilet paper on the toilet before we used them.no bath as it has no tap handles. Asked for the hair dryer as advertised, but still waiting for that as well. Also check the rules in the room, $5 a day electricity bill if you leave a light or the dusty pedestal fan on etc If you have slept through the noise of everyone walking the bare wood floor hallways you can go down for Breakfast Which is, water, tea and coffee, your choice of 4 cerials, frozen bread to toast yourself, and she offered to cook eggs, that's breakfast.

Breakfast starts at 7.30 and complaints
1. I was lucky to get breakfast at 7 on the first day but was told I could not have breakfast in the room though I paid for it when I booked as b/fast came with the room. On the second and third days I was not allowed to eat my breakfast in my $140 per night room! 2. The room is not secured as the window lock was useless and the window wooden frame was rotted and the glass was out of the frame 3. The bed slates were missing from the bed so your back side went into the missing slats. 4. The room was not cleaned, no soap provided on day 2 and 3. Fridge switched off when I got there (it was a very hot day). On days 2 and 3 the bed was not made. 5. For the price $140 per night, I would have expected air conditioning. 6. There was no adjustment for the blinds as the "strings" were broken. 7 Rating on this stay is a MINUS TEN for the high cost of the room, the broken bed slats and service! 8. I hope I can get some sort of refund for this stay.

Sad - but has potential
When you find reception you cannot get in... then you wait after ringing the doorbell several times. The lady that answered then organised my check in in a scruffy, little, untidy office. I was then directed upstairs to my room. This is a lovely old home that has been let run down and not loved as it should be. The entry to the room is by yale lock without a locking system on the back of the door. The bathroom is TERRIBLE. The seat with a view has a window that opens onto the street view without a lock on it. The glass does not meet the framework. The blinds are at all odds and ends there is NO presentation of the room whatsoever. On the upside the bed was surprisingly comfortable and the linen clean and fresh. The towels tho Sheridan are sad. NEVER going back.

Booked "family room" for my mother and uncle who were visiting their dying sister at Concorde Hospital. Their report: for family room, "ensuite" miniscule - so small they actually went down corridor to shower in communal shower. If they'd used it, the water from the shower would have gone all over sink, toilet etc Scungey - not well cleaned room or bathroom. Leaking toilet with small pool of toilet water re-accumulating on bathroom floor Photos make the place look significantly better than actuality. Mean service - only 2 sachets of instant coffee in room, no tea. When teabags requested, fistful of bags passed to my mother to put into room (no dish, ?clean hands) My family actually wondered whether it was actually a brothel or something... Ate breakfast in local cafe due to concerns re likely hygeine of kitchen.

Very run down and expensive for the condition/pric
We arrived early than book in time, but no one would answer the door until we found the phone no., they wouldnt let us into our room, fair enough, but they did let us park our car there whilst we went off to the Sydney Easter Show. We were a family of 6 and was only given 2 towels and 1 small cake of soap. The kids were in bunk beds which 1 bed had a slat poking into the mattress and another slat fell out of the top bunk bed when my child got out in the morning, lucky no one was underneath. Even though its advertised as a bed and breakfast, there is no breakfast served on weekends.
