Excellent stay
This was an excellent choice for my first time in a shared accommodation setting as a solo female traveler. Everything was clean and the staff was always friendly. The only thing that could be improved on is the breakfast bar. The value, options, and variety were good, but there was no protein options at all. Something simple like scrambled eggs would be a great addition.

Very friendly staff. Clean room (we had a room with an ensuite). A lot of stairs from Circular Quay to get here, but worth it for the rooftop view. Would very happily stay again.

Great, easy accommodation for what we needed. Breakfast available if needed that to, but close to everything so easy to walk or catch public transport. Only thing it was not easy to park my car, having to pay daily, which was not ideal. So if you don't have a car, it's perfect for you.

Quiet and spacious room with own bathroom. Great shared spaces and facilities. Beautiful rooftop area with an amazing view. Convenient to The Rocks and only a few minutes walk to Circular Quay. Interesting archeological and historical photo displays within the building. Note that there are tea and coffee facilities in the room but no fridge, however there is access to a large shared kitchen (including fridge space).
