Бързо резюме: It's a glorified, artist-painted shoebox with no on-site staff, but the price and location are hard to beat.
Преглеждано от @angiedamato_roomreveal: I treated myself to a solo self-care night at the Majestic Minima Hotel and it was exactly what I needed. For just $103, I got this incredibly colorful room. I loved having my coffee on the balcony and just relaxing in bed with my laptop. Such a perfect, affordable escape.

Често задавани въпроси и скрити съвети
Всичко, което наистина трябва да знаеш, преди да резервираш.
Is there a front desk at the hotel?
No. This is a self-service property. You have to walk 200 meters down the street to the Majestic Old Lion Apartments to check in and get your key.
Are the rooms really as small as people say?
Yes. The rooms are about 14 square meters (150 sq ft). It's a 'mini-room' concept designed mostly just for sleeping.
Is there parking available on-site?
Yes, there is secure undercover parking for $15 AUD per night, but spaces are very limited and must be booked in advance.
Do the rooms have windows or balconies?
It depends. The cheapest 'Economy' rooms on the ground floor often face a brick wall or dusty car park. You have to upgrade to get a balcony and natural light.
Is there a pool or gym?
No. The amenities are bare-bones. There is a rooftop terrace and free laundry, but no fitness or swim facilities.
Why is there a $500 security deposit?
The hotel enforces a strict no-party policy and requires a $500 AUD hold on your credit card, which can take up to a week to be released after checkout.

5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The $500 AUD security deposit is unusually high for a budget hotel and can take up to 7 days to drop off your credit card.
💡The air conditioning units are older, non-split systems that can be quite loud when they kick on at night.
💡The 'balcony' in some upgraded rooms is fully enclosed and just looks directly at the wall of the building next door.
💡The TV is mounted extremely high on the wall at an angle, making it awkward to watch from bed.
💡There is a lingering drain smell in some of the bathrooms that permeates the room if you leave the door open.
