Rooms are comfortable and sufficient for the price you pay. While the variety on offer for breakfast can become repetitive if staying for more than a few days, the quality is good. Barista made coffee is a nice touch. Staff were friendly and very helpful, providing us with an early check in after we arrived very early and storing bags with no hassle on the last day. I would recommend this hotel for a budget friendly option in an accessible location for everything Sydney has to offer.

The room was basic but clean. The bed was comfortable so I got several good nights sleep. Close enough to all of the attractions that you could safely walk to them (and found more to see whilst walking). There's grocery stores nearby as well as plenth of restaurants. The breakfast was fresh and plenty to go around. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
