OkayNov. 20105.3
Challis Lodge was more than adequate for our family for a short stay. Our room was clean and comfortable and the Lodge is within easy walking distance to Kings Cross and very close to bus stops etc. We loved the character of the building etc.
We were a bit daunted by the flights of stairs, (Our room was on the top floor) as we arrived in the evening and had several suitcases to lug up the stairs. However this was quickly forgotten and we enjoyed our stay

OkayNov. 20105.6
It was in a beautiful part of the city--apartment houses and hotels, big trees--with restaurants, shopping, atm and bus right close by. And the staff at the desk was very friendly.
The room was tiny! But still a good value. We had a fan and a heater, an electric water pot for coffee, dishes, and a bathroom to ourselves, the bed was comfortable, and the place was very quiet.
