Rydges Sydney Central

10/10 Excellent
"My daughter and I recently stayed at Rydges World Square in early October for 4 nights. We enjoyed our stay there and chose the green option to not have our room cleaned. However there were a couple of matters about the green option that I think could be improved upon to make it a more favourable option for guests who are down there for a leisurely stay. 1. I think 2 towels should be provided for guests staying more than 2 nights because there are no drying facilities in the rooms. 2. I think it would be a simple matter for you to provide a chux rag for us to wipe down surfaces and wipe out cups that we used to drink the tea and coffee provided. 3. And finally a set of recycled cutlery that could be used by guests who may bring snacks to the room to eat after dinner. And always a bottle of water to be available from the fridge. These are just a few suggestions that I have thought of but I am sure you would agree that the green option should not mean living in less than ideal conditions. I felt our comfort was compromised and the $30 we received off our bill did not compensate for the inconvenience of having to put up with damp towels dirty cups and no cutlery to use when we needed it. I hope you will take on board my suggestions and offer these little extras to the guests who choose the green option who are staying for more than 2 nights. Thankyou Cheers"
