“Dissappointing, unmaintained facilities”
The facilities were very old and seem like it was not maintained well. I chose the harbour/opera view but it didnt give justice at all together with their uncleaned windows. The shower pressure wasnt great as well, can seem to balance the hot and cold and the waterflow was very weak.

“Incredible Location to stay near Harbour Bridge & Circulat Quay”
This is a good value-for-money Hotel to stay in a fabulous location. Easy 7 minute walk from Circular Quay Station and Light Rail stop at Circular Quay. Comfortable and clean rooms. It wasn’t busy and we got a free upgrade so could see part of the harbour from our Room.
