We stayed three nights but unfortunately, the fire alarm went off the first two nights in a row at 3am in the morning and no one told us why there was a fire alarm. It was extremely disorganised and very inconvenient. Definitely won’t be staying here again.

Perhaps because stay was overnight would suggest why the room was small without wardrobe. Suggest that mugs might be offered instead of small cups which you had to wait to cool down when filled with tea or coffee. Staff were friendly but, unfortunately, checked in the same day as a system update which made everything a bit disjointed. Suggest better lighting in the lifts.

The hotel is centrally located, very comfortable, well furnished rooms with king beds and good air con. Unfortunately no exhaust fan in bathroom, a mini fridge which doesn’t cool down enough to store food and incredibly tight parking next door. If you drive an SUV you’ll find it’s almost impossible to unpack the car and manoeuvre around.

Fantastic location right in the middle of Chinatown. Soooo much food to choose from. Close to train, trams etc. Room was neat n tidy. Very small but commensurate to rate. Basic facilities. No maintenance over Anzac weekend which really is unaffordable for service needs. Couldnt find location as arrived in dark and there is no lighting outside on the street so maybe this could be addressed Overall a very pleasant stay

I liked the security of the property and safety of the area. The tram is just across the street and can go straight to the quay, and there are stops along the way for shops, restaurants, or even to darling harbor. And the tram behind the hotel can take you to the Sydney fish market. So, I loved the location. My only issue was the toilet in my room. It was too close to the wall that I had to sit at an angle-ish. I’m a 5’4 stocky/slim filipino guy. Other than that, I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is so secured that the entering it makes you feel to visit a jail. The elevator is so tiny and slow. The staff basically very hard to find. Unless stopped by the reception desk. It seems they lack of staff, so many services can’t provided properly. I found there is no floor mat for showers for two days, I requested, then the next day , the dirty one collected, new one still missed. The shower and bathroom is so tiny, it is like a dollhouses, not a real hotel. Although the price is very high, it is not worth yet.
