I was a bit worried staying here after reading about people's issues with the bed. In my opinion the ends are great. I also enjoyed the fact they provided full size fluffy bath towels. Everything was clean and great. The best part, by far, however, is the staff in the restaurant and the cleaning staff. They're all super friendly and helpful.

Great location easy walk to Darling and Sydney harbours. Staff polite and helpful, rooms clean and spacious. Local restaurants and bars. Downside would like reduced car parking as hotel guest, hand rail by bath/shower and disappointed restaurant closed Sunday and Mondays. Generally would recommend.
