Room was clean and modern. Staff were very warm and welcoming. While checking in I saw a very difficult guest making unreasonable demands who was being dealt with by a receptionist with incredible kindness, patience, professionalism, and grace. An excellent example of what good service requires.

The description did not include the pool was closed ! The Manager was dismissive and blamed Expedia not giving the correct information, openly told us that he can’t help on price as the city was busy and we would not find another room so refused to discuss. We got to our room and immediately was hit with a wall of odour, the carpet smelled, the couches smelled of BO. The room was dirty, ratty. I found $4 1/2 drank bottle of water that I had to report to the front desk so as not to be charged. The street noise was insane, it was as if the windows were all wide open 24/7! The bathroom had mold on all the grout with every nook and cranny showing mold and dirt! I would recommend you stay away from this run down smelly hotel !

We stayed over in a studio apartment, booked at short notice. It was very spacious and comfortable but a bit “tired” decor and facilities wise. It had a full kitchen and fridge, with separated washer & dryer. Checkin was open until late and staff we interacted with were pleasant and helpful. Great location at the north end of the city and an easy walk to The Rocks and the cbd.

This property was a JOKE! We order a balcony room and the sliding door was nailed shut with a bolt, so you couldn’t open the door at all, sure this is a fire hazard! There was a massive hole in the wall above the sliding door Our room was surrounded in scaffolding The pool was closed They were under staffed and the manager was just sitting in the back room watching cameras Out check in was delayed by an hour
