Les lits, oreillers, le buffet petit déjeuner, la possibilité de se servir des sachets de thé et sucre dans le couloir.

La baignoire n’était pas très accueillante (tâche de rouille dans le fond), impossible de prendre un bain dans cet état. Chambre 1028

Great stay, very helpful staff. Super clean and great location
Pros:

Great location, close to darling harbour and the light rail

Cons:

They were busy so sometimes the room wasn’t serviced as we requested. That could have been because our room was the last on the floor we were on
