There is no safe in the room or the hotel, money and valuables are exposed. The windows are thin so its noisy and the ac has no thermostat only on or off. Definitely not worth the price.

The room was quiet, even being right beside the elevator. A little run down but very clean and location convenient. The parking was very limited and the spots were extremely tight.

We booked a harbour view which we got. Our room was a fold out bed,I booked a Queen bed it was lucky to be a double, a camping hot plate as the kitchen stove and a shower door that didn’t close. We were near the washing machines and there is no restriction on when they can be used or first night they operated till 2am.My sister room same price was 5 star on the same floor

Helpful staff. Allowed us to check in early. Room was clean and had nice view of harbour. Bus stop very close but service is infrequent. About 10 min walk to train station. Many restaurants and supermarket close by.

The choice of hot porridge with a luxuriously rich mix of stewed fruit from the breakfast menu was such a delight during my winter stay. I'm not sure what local kitchen this is ordered from but keep it coming. Delicious! Room had the most glorious uninterrupted views across Sydney Harbour however in general the decor and bathroom needs updating which would literally grow the spaces 1000 percent. Also, this goes for every hotel/motel style accommodation where I've stayed . . . .. and that is hooks, hooks and more clothing hooks and/or places to hang towels, clothing etc.. in the bathroom or elsewhere. A folding luggage rack wouldn't go astray either, even if it is something that can be requested during or prior to a stay. This property is in a fun, village-like location and the staff were lovely and super helpful but it's the little extras that would take the experience to another level.

I stayed for three nights, and the room was cleaned every day, making my stay very comfortable. I also really appreciated the baby crib they provided for my baby. I would love to stay here again when I visit Sydney.

Great location. I love Potts Point, great walking area. The hotel is dated, there’s construction behind the hotel. It’s noisy during the work day. The manager took prompt steps to help me with a few issues. Overall good value.
