A great location, very handy to Darling Harbour and Town Hall station and all near by. Ideal for catching trains, buses or metro to get you around the city or just to Circular Quay. Having cooking facilities and fridge is a bonus to allow self catering to save costs, and Woolies just up the road. Good sized apartment with separate bedroom and bathroom. Some aspects of the room a little tired but more than good enough, and great pricing for central Sydney. Very attentive and friendly staff at check in and out.
