Great location for an overnight stay before flying out from Sydney International Airport.
Pros:

Perfect location in darlinghurst, close to pubs, cafes, so many places to eat. This motel is ideal to stay at because you can walk everywhere. It was very quiet, no street noise at all. The blockout curtains were great.

Pros:

The staff were professional and the location is close to Kings across station. They also had a smart TV.

Cons:

This was okay accommodation, the standard room is very small and there are no photos of it on the site. There are only stairs, no lift, so you have to carry your luggage up. There are no washcloths/flannels, only hand towels. There website talks about a bar and a restaurant but we were not shown or told about them, and could not see them (there was no signage). There was very little wall insulation, could hear toilets flushing next door as well as conversations and TV.
