The hotel is located in a prime spot in Potts Points, near many restaurants and attractions. The rooms are spotlessly clean and light, but the lack of parking is a downside.

The hotel is situated in a prime spot in Potts Points, near a variety of restaurants and interesting attractions. The rooms are on the smaller side and show signs of wear, but offer a view of the charming neighborhood. The service was outstanding with very helpful and polite staff. The location is excellent for exploring the city without the usual noise, and the dining experience, although thoughtful, had limited options.
