Nice room, good stay

The room was a nice size with a large terrace. The room had tea/coffee-making facilities and a microwave. The buffet breakfast was enjoyable. The Sydney Brewery had reasonably priced drinks and good food. Easy walking distance to attractions.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was great for me. Liked the option of not needing room service every day. As a solo traveler my didn't need cleaning every day. Breakfast buffet was very good. The lack of elevators was frustrating. Would have liked the option of making tea/coffee in my room. Overall I would stay again.
