The property is well priced for the area, which is walking distance to china town and the mall. Staff were helpful. The room was clean and comfortable; but a little bit tired. The fridge was a bit small (no freezer section), which was a tricky for a family of five trying to save on take away. No microwave in the room, but one in the lobby. The shower is over the bath.

Nice little hotel near the Powerhouse Museum and a short walk to Darling Harbour. Our room was spacious and I appreciated all the surface space to store our luggage and belongings. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was good. The employees were very helpful with calling taxis and sorting out any issues. I would stay here again. The only thing I didn’t like was the lack of dining options around the hotel.
