Horrendously Loudest road I’ve ever stayed near!
Pros:

Room was spacious and tidy

Cons:

The location is terrible, beside a main road with loud traffic all day and night. Hotel is situated under a flyover/bypass so no natural light and extra traffic noise 24/7.

We would stay here again if we come back to Sydney
Pros:

It was centrally located and very close to Wynyard Station (direct train to/from the airport).

Cons:

We were concerned when we arrived to see that the building was situated right underneath a flyover but that didn’t actually cause us any problems or overnight noise.

Spacious studio close to CBD.
Pros:

Only 10-15 mins walk to Darling Harbour, Circular Quay,SOH etc. close to Wynyard station. Spacious room.

Cons:

In middle of concrete jungle with flyover and offices, but it was well soundproofed. Also needs little things like some decent cushions, somewhere to hang clothes in bathroom, bedside tables BOTH sides of the bed.

Un bon emplacement mais qui ne fait pas tout ! Un ravalement intérieur est plus que nécessaire au regard du prix d’une n

La proximité de darling harbour et de la gare de Wynyard.

Cons:

L’hôtel commence à être vieillot. L’intérieur des chambres s’en ressent ( vieille moquette, Abat jour des lampes de chevet cassés, ustensiles de cuisine usagés)
