An affordable hotel in Sydney that has everything I need. Easy access to the metro (20-30minute ride from the airport via AirportLink), landmarks, shopping, restaurants, and a gym.
I arrived early morning but check-in was not until the afternoon. I was dying for a shower and itching to start exploring. Thankfully, they have a bathroom and shower facility on the top floor. Bring your toiletries with you and take a towel from the gym if you want to use the shower. I left my bag at the bell desk after freshening up and went on my merry way.
I came back late afternoon and my room was ready. Wifi isn't free. The room was clean and spacious enough. Flat-screen TV, fridge, mini bar, safe and toiletries.
I walked about 15 minutes to Wild Life Zoo/ Sea Life. It's also a short walk to Lululemon, Westfield, Max Brenner, and lots of cafés/restaurants. There is a Starbucks across the street. Wynyard Park is just there.
The gym has a TV, bench, weights, treadmill, stationary bike, elliptical, towels, water dispenser and cups. You have a view of Anzac Bridge. There are vending machines in every floor that has drinks, chips, ice cream, toothpaste, etc.
Room service was good too. I ordered nasi goreng but they no longer have it so, they gave me a full glass of white wine with my dinner. I got fish and chips with garlic aioli - surprisingly good!
The staff was helpful. I liked my stay here. read more
