Generally was good, but a couple of issues.
Expedia obviously didn’t pass on to you the name change and there was issue checking in
Info said mini bar but there was not
No exhaust fan in bathroom
No face washers - had to request
No “pillow menu”
TV didn’t have channels on it only channel 7 cricket
Reception tried to get it sorted but couldn’t. Connected my phone to chrome cast device but as I don’t have the premium Netflix couldn’t cast it so only option was YouTube.
The wifi was not up to the task and felt buffering.
So very poor experience on that level.
Breakfast was adequate but very narrow area and got bumped a lot. Always ran out of forks!
No muesli available
Watermelon was like it was cut up 3 days earlier

Avoid breakfast kaos
Breakfast room kaotic, poorly designed, too small. Food area needs to flow in one direction as ppl pushing thru dangerously when hot beverages being carried. Put tea coffee and the hot water urn in another zone. Would not eat there again based on this mornings experience.

Excellent service
We arrived early 10:00am from Canada. The hotel was fully booked. They secured all our luggage, we went for a walk and lunch. When we came back at 2:00pm we were able to check-in. We appreciated that very much.

Ok
Comfortable rooms. Great location in heart of food district. Close to public transport and walkable. Prices were quite high for a room that was just a room, no view, nothing special on the second floor.
Many flight staff seem to stay at the location. Maybe they had better lodgings?

Great location, Nice rooms
Great and easy checkin in. The room was pretty good. The eonly downside was one side of the latex king mattress was indented and had a hump in the middle, so you felt like you were rolling out of bed all night. We had to prop a pillow under the edge of the mattress to make it comfortable enough.
Otherwise it was pretty comfortable room. Breakfast was pretty standard for a hotel of this class, and service was very good despite it being quite busy.
I'd stay here again if need be because the location is great being right in Darling Harbour and Chinatown area.
