The hotel offers all the necessary facilities, but the rooms looked a bit unclean. It was supposed to be a triple room with a fold-up bed for four, and I wish the laundry could start earlier at 6 am to finish by 8:30 am.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms had cooking facilities, which was perfect for us. Although they looked bigger than they actually were, it was still spacious. Being able to cook our own food in the room with a view of the Harbour Bridge and opera house was simply delightful.

The hotel is located in a prime spot in Potts Points, near many restaurants and attractions. The rooms are spotlessly clean and light, but the lack of parking is a downside. The service is very helpful, and the staff is welcoming. The location is superb but somewhat inconvenient for those looking for shops and cafes nearby. Dining is thoughtful and ideal, but the food could have been better. The facilities are lacking in expected parking availability.

The hotel is situated in a prime spot in Potts Points, near a variety of restaurants and interesting attractions. The rooms are on the smaller side and show signs of wear, but offer a view of the charming neighborhood. The service was outstanding with very helpful and polite staff. The location is excellent for exploring the city without the usual noise, and the dining experience, although thoughtful, had limited options.

The hotel offered spacious and very clean rooms. However, there was an issue with the room allocation. The modern fitted bathroom was a highlight, and the facilities provided were as promised. The service was superbly helpful and flexible, and the location was really convenient with great access to shops and transportation.
