Convenient location
Pros:

Location is excellent for the Domestic Airport about a 10 minute walk. Half of that was working out how to get there. Also 20 minutes walk to Mascot station so you don’t pay the airport surcharge.
Staff so helpful.
Bedroom was more spacious than I thought but I was expecting a European room where there is only a bed.

Cons:

Nothing
