The room was beautiful. Breakfast kitchen staff were horrible, brought out half cooked eggs and when I asked if they had eggs that were cooked through they shrugged and walked away laughing. No microwave so you cant warm up your food either so breakfast was always cold.

Our small but very functional twin share room worked very well and had some thoughtful extras such as the easy to find rechargeable flashlight. Good lighting, great beds, and quiet air con unit, very much appreciated. And the buffet breakfast was great, with a good selection of foods and attentive staff always ready to help.

Conveniently located near Sydney airport. Avoid the shuttle and grab an Uber or 13cabs. Much cheaper and run on your schedule.

It was a short stay before catching a plane. The check-in counter was on the first floor without clear signage. We had to get help from another guest as there were no staff on the ground floor!
