“The hotel enjoys a superb location, a stone's throw from Kings Cross station, making access around Sydney a breeze. While the building shows its age a little, the value is undeniable, especially with the updated, stylish rooms and modern conveniences like reliable Wi-Fi. I'd recommend taking up the hotel's parking option rather than risking the pricier garage next door.”
