We had a really nice stay at Macleay hotel! Our room was perhaps a little old, but everything was very clean so we didn't mind the kitchen corner being a little old. The location is excellent, Potts point is a beautiful part of Sydney and not too touristy, there are actual residents too and not just hotels. Also there is a grocery store directly across the street and tens of cafes and restaurants within 700 metres. Easy walk to the subway, or even easier to take the bus (bus stop directly in front of the hotel). Only minus is that the street noises carry to the rooms quite easily, but I think it is understandable because the location is so center.
All the hotel workers were super nice and polite, and helped us to find different walking routes.
Also a fun fact if you love animals, cockatoo parrots fly by this hotel a lot! We could see them from our room window every afternoon.
