Facilities: The air conditioning only has an on/off setting, no fan speed adjustment. If you turn on the AC, you have to put up with a very loud noise, and even when it's off, you can still hear the exhaust fan. Service: When checking in, the front desk staff took my credit card. The POS machine was right there on the desk, so if they needed to verify my card was a Visa, I could have easily shown it to them myself. Instead, they took my card out of my sight, which was very unsettling. Even though they later let me check in early before the official check-in time, it had already soured my mood. The location is very convenient, and the decor is quite new.

The hotel was alright, definitely spacious and in a convenient location. The living room and bedroom is excellent in my books. However, it’s a bit dated, and the toilet shows its age. We encountered small cockroaches each evening we returned, luckily just the slow kind that you can easily catch. I appreciated the green programme that rewards guests who skip room service with vouchers, but the voucher has limited use, especially with the breakfast spread being quite limited; honestly, you’re better off heading out to nearby cafés instead. Skipping housekeeping also meant I had to dispose of my own trash, and the recycling bins near the lifts kept piling up without being cleared. Can be better.

The corner room was very spacious and comfortable for a family stay. There's also a small balcony. The kitchen is well-equipped with coffee and tea provided. The minibar is chargeable, and there are no toothbrushes or slippers. The only 'bug' was that the third bed in the triple room was in the living room and had a glass door that let in all the light, so we were woken up by the brightness early in the morning.

Love the location of the hotel. Room is newly renovated. Utensils in the pantry are new and clean, suitable for families.

Great location, very close to Chinatown with lots of food options nearby. It's also just a 10-15 minute walk to the Opera House and the Aquarium. The front desk staff were very welcoming and the breakfast was excellent. Highly recommend!

This hotel was by far the worst during my entire long trip. The location is excellent, and the room was spacious enough; we booked a quadruple room for three people, which initially seemed great. However, the service was disappointing. Before we left, we went to pick up our car and left our luggage, which consisted of several large, open-top supermarket bags, at the lobby. After we left, we discovered that some items were missing from our bags… I'm not going to pursue it as they were just small things, but it definitely impacted our perception of the hotel's integrity and hospitality. Even though my supermarket bags were open, how can they take things from inside them? Anyway, I won't be choosing this hotel again in Sydney. All the other hotels I've stayed at so far have been excellent, but this one left a bad taste in my mouth after leaving Sydney.

The location is fantastic, very lively with plenty of restaurants around. It's also a short taxi ride to all the main attractions. The room itself was quite spacious, though the facilities were pretty standard. I did notice a small blood stain on the bottom of one of the sheets, which was a bit off-putting. Breakfast wasn't elaborate, but it was good value for money, and they had a decent variety of fruits. On my last day, I had an early flight and breakfast hadn't started yet. I tried to get a refund for it, but was refused, which was a real letdown in terms of service. Also, there's no complimentary bottled water or slippers in the room, so you need to bring your own.

The facilities are a bit dated, and every morning there's a smell of cooking oil. It seems to be coming from other rooms using the kitchen, and the smell is seeping through.
