Criterion is in a really good position. Close to central city shops restaurants, cafe's etc.
We use it as a late stay over flying interstate for work but its in a great spot. Has 24hr checkin. 11am checkout. It all works really well for us. Its a little noisy at times is all id say but overall good value accommodation.
The need for a $250 bond was a surprise. It was refunded during checkout.
Maintenance issues in my room: Desk top has lots of peeling paint, Skirting board has scratches, carpet is worn in places.
Insufficient shelves.
No writing material in room.
No ironing board nor iron
Room not clean on a Saturday

Always cheap and easy
Staff are good, the place is a bit old and run down but it’s convenient and cheap so no complaints.

Clean room but a bit the worst for wear. Good aircon as it was freezing and only 1 light blanket per person.
Property very old and in need of maintenance and updating. I think the pricing is a bit high. I've stayed at other hotels approx same price and rooms were much better.
Basic rooms, clean linen daily which was a plus.
Good location. Plenty of nearby cafes for meals.
We found the room to be cold - heater didn’t do much & we couldn’t get hold of reception to request another blanket.
The staff were good & informative but wouldn’t recommend stay, mould in bathroom & paint peeling.

Tired and dated, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
Very quiet and pleasant stay.
We often stay at the criterion because its reasonably priced and convenient with its 24hr checkin. We arrived very late due to major delays on our flights. Check-In is quick. The desk is manned 24hrs .11am check out suits us too. We had a flight the next day. Overall, its nothing fancy and can be a little noisy but an affordable place to rest your head for 1 night.
Great location right near Hay street Mall but property condition was pretty poor.
Also the need for a $250 deposit was unusually high for what was a very basic room and saying it would take a long period of time before release was a shock.
Positive shower was hot towels and sheets were clean but some other areas needed attention

Excellent location, a walking distance to shops and transport. An old historical building so a little run down but everything was working well including elevator, air conditioning and shower. Comfortable beds. Good value for the money.
Very noisy at night . Thin walls. People up and down the hallway talking and singing.
We were freezing cold with a thin blanket and flat pillows. Bed super uncomfortable. Had about an hours sleep . Never ever stay there again.
