This hotel exceeded my expectations. Very walkable to the waterfront and shops in Sydney. I was there with friends and we got adjoining rooms which helped make the trip fun. Nice touch of a little treat/coffee station in the lobby. Breakfast was small but had a good selection and the attendant was very friendly and efficient. Not a fancy hotel but well looked after. I would happily stay here again.
