Pros:

The room was cute and decent i liked the shower the body wash etc smelt nice

Cons:

That the parking is split up from hotel leaving me to walk with alof of luggage, reception wasn't helpful when asking for basic help considering I paid $550 for 1 night stay which I didnt find value in that, aircon was having technical issues which I wasn't told about at all so it was super hot in the room, I did ask for free breakfast to accommodate this issue which they accepted however quite poor service here.

Pros:

아침 식사까지 포함되었던 것을 고려하면 상당히 적절한 가격이었습니다.
위치는 시내 중심가에 위치해서 교통, 근사한 레스토랑, 방문지 등과의 접근성을 고려해서 최상이었습니다.
다음에 또 시드니를 방문한다면 반드시 고려 대상이 될 수 있을 것 같습니다.

Cons:

총 5일을 숙박하는데 아침 식사 메뉴가 항상 동일하였습니다. 좀 더 다양한 메뉴로 구성을 하고, 요일 별로 조금씩 달리하였다면 더욱 좋았을 것 같다는 아쉬움이 있었습니다.
