Pros:
- The hotel is very well located near the center of Sydney. This is a safe neighborhood with lots of bars, hotels and restaurants, and we felt safe even when we went in late at night.
- The service is excellent. All the staff we talked to were very friendly and asked us whether we wanted anything.
Negative points:
- The main problem is the state of the shared bathrooms. They are run down and need a good cleanup. In the ladies' room, the shower curtain had obviously not been replaced in a long while and was stained with dark spots all over.
- The reception opens at 9 AM. This was not mentioned in any of the papers we had (booking confirmation, etc.). Arriving in Sydney very early from an international flight (6 AM), we were disappointed we couldn't drop our bags and had to wait in a nearby cafe with our stuff until 9. Sure, there's a phone number on the door we could have called, but we didn't feel like hunting for a pay phone with our luggage in tow. Please, mention the reception opening hours in the documentation!
- Overpriced for the quality
