Staff were lovely, great location - close to central station and the facility was clean. Only negative was the shower. The shower head was super low in the shower; making it hard for anyone on the average / taller height end to fit into the shower properly.

The staff were very friendly and helpful in carrying our luggage to rooms. Location is excellent, close to Chinatown, Darling Harbour and tram stops. Bed was very comfortable. The rooms was very small, no and there is no washbasin, shelf or mirror in the bathroom. Instead a washbasin is located in the toilet to clean your teeth. Unfortunately due to renovations, the elevator was out of action, meaning a lot of steps to get up to our room on the second floor.
