    The small kitchenette was incredibly useful for quick meals. The warm welcome from Kim after our long flight was unforgettable, guiding us to local spots with a map.

    spacious room
    street noise

    The room was spacious and well-equipped, with comfortable beds and crisp linen that made for a restful stay.

    Unfortunately, the street noise was quite bothersome at night due to ongoing roadworks, which affected our sleep.

    location factor
    smelly reception
    pushy membership

    Great location, clean room, spacious accommodations

    The reception area had a strange smell, and the check-in process felt overly pushy about membership codes!!! A clear sign for the hotel would also help guests find it better!!!

    The highs and the lows

    Fantastic location within walking distance to the train station and Chinatown! The kitchenette was a bonus for preparing basic meals, making our stay super convenient! !

    Tram noise was a real issue, particularly at night. The air conditioning could also use an upgrade for better comfort.

    loud street noise

    Great spot for exploring!

    We loved the location! Super convenient, just steps from a tram stop and tons of food options nearby. The staff were super nice and always ready to help. The kitchenette was a lifesaver for quick meals. Just a heads up, the noise from the street can get really loud at night. But overall, great vibes!

    Convenient spot with friendly vibes

    Location was aces! Super close to Chinatown and other cool eats. Staff were super chill and helped me find my way around. The room was decent, but man, that ventilation noise was kinda annoying. Snack bar had some quick bites if you didn't wanna go out.

    Just an excellent fit for a hurried visit in Sydney with good value for money. Reception staff were genuinely friendly and helpful during my stay. Bring your own coffee supplies since they don’t refill them in the room.

    The location is exceptional, with easy access to Central Station and nearby attractions like the Capitol Theatre. Staff were genuinely friendly and helpful during check-in and check-out. the noise from the street and air conditioning could disrupt comfort, and the mattress could use an upgrade for a better night's sleep.

    weird towel service

    location is really good, just next to the light rail and close to chinatown! the staff were super friendly and helped us really fast when we needed it. the room was quite spacious and comfy, and the kitchenette was a nice touch to make quick meals. everything was clean and the daily service was on point.

    but the fridge was so noisy that we had to unplug it, and it was kinda hard to find pots and pans for cooking. also, the lack of towels and having to leave them out for cleaning felt a bit weird.

    noisy hallways

    The room was cozy and quiet, no noise from outside, which was nice. It was clean and had a small kitchenette, great for quick meals. The location was perfect for the theater, just across the road. Just wish the air conditioning worked a bit better. it felt warm at times. pretty comfortable for a short stay.
