Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Aviation CentralSydney, Australia262 contributionsA super well furnished railway station that is very large - I almost got lost (I tried to take the metro and it was on platform 27)! There is a retro kind of design in the station, which is super cool. I suggest you have a look and take some photos as it is quite a sight for visitors or new immigrants.Written 7 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- wanderingwulfs113 contributionsWonderful gallery experience - a bit outside the tourist zone, which adds to the appeal. Staff on hand to explain the art (as well as placards). Lovely mix of pieces that engaged us throughout our visit. Top it off with a tasty snack of dumplings (get the chicken and lemongrass variety), tea and glass of wine. Highly recommend!Written 4 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Simon BCity of Greater Geelong, Australia4,415 contributionsThough a rainy night, we enjoyed a walk on the Wharf before restaurant booking.
Pretty wooden structure leading to a variety of eating places & apartment houses.
Lighting along & above very nice as the rain poured down.Written 31 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Impressive.Written 24 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- David USydney, Australia13 contributionsMy wife and I visited the Mobbs House in Chippendale in inner Sydney with others as part of a small group. A booking is required via his web site which was simple to do.
What he has done is quite remarkable, becoming self sufficient with water, electricity and sewage disposal for a small terrace house in inner city without compromising quality of life. He still has power, light and water without connection to the grid (he retains access to mains gas for cooking and, I think, hot water). He also has chickens (unexpected in inner Sydney) and grows some of his food requirements on what is a very small plot of land.
Michael provided an interesting commentary on what he has done, how he did it and the pitfalls of dealing with councils and utilities when seeking to be innovative. His books are a "must read". It was a morning well spent and we will be following up on increasing our self sufficiency and reducing our carbon footprint.Written 1 March 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- mchughs2016Osaka, Japan55 contributionsWent on the "blue mountains day trip with harbour cruise"
Guide was nice. Not really an entertaining guy but told us what needed to be told. Ticket and advertising stated included morning tea... that didn't happen.
Spent a while collecting money for attractions after lunch, Why isn't this just paid in the booking?.
Harbour cruise???? Was ferry back to harbour in the dark. To avoid traffic.
That's fine but why not state that. Paid as part of trip then given back $10 cash to cover the ferry that can not be paid by cash!, go figure
Very poor organisation.
I recommended just go on the train and miss out on the totally unecessary zoo stop... which if you don't want to go in you just sit on a bench for an hour. Long day . Most of it on the small cramped coach.Written 2 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

My granddaughters (4 and 6) thoroughly enjoyed the adventure. The fact that we got to sit in our own carriage made it all very special. They had so many questions about everything. The 40 minute journey was perfect to keep them still interested. All the staff were very helpful and pleasant and I cannot fault any part of this adventure.
The museum was also very interesting for everyone. They especial loved that they could turn a few wheels and push a few levers and see the coal on the display train.Written 12 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I think the experience was amongst the worst we have had. If I were to offer some advice to management it would be: 1) send the staff to chalk school and 2) put the drivers on an anger management course.Written 1 February 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stuart K7 contributionsSaid hi to female bar staff, not friendly. Asked for drinks then she made them and then asked for my card. I asked her how much and then she grunted, make some unrecognisable remarks and then went to the till then came back and told me the price. Gave her my card, she then almost threw card next to me after charging it. I then had to go find her and ask for receipt, said she didn't have to but I insisted then she did.Written 26 November 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
