Disliked: Staff & service
Apart from the location (the rocks), the rest of the amenities leave a lot to be desired. Outdated bathroom fittings, bugs/insects in the bathtub, Staff with some bad attitude, and mediocre breakfast. To add to the folly your view of the opera house is pretty much blocked by a ship parked most of the time.

Our room was warm and damp. We never really got to a comfortable temperature. Staff was very accommodating and kept our luggage for about 4 hours before we were able to check in. Lobby area is very comfortable.

The hotel was in a perfect location to walk to just about everything. The inside was a little worn and run-down. Our room was clean, the beds were comfortable. The staff failed to let us know that there was a restaurant on the second floor and that there was a roof top pool with amazing views (we already knew about the roof top pool).

We liked this property, gorgeous entry/lobby, and the area it was in, was perfect. The hot tub was chilly and that was disappointing. The building is older but has what you need. The cleaner needs to vacuum the carpet all the way to the edge, there was raised rim of dust and dirt along the edges, use the attachments! That was gross. Other than that, things were as they should be.

I wish there were elevators or some kind of access to the rooms that didn’t require a walk around the entire floor to get to your room. Should definitely be more handicap accessible in that regard.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was in walking distance to eateries, history, water transit, and rail transit from the airport. However, I did not recieve information concerning what the hotel offered (such as meals, pool). In fact I was told that there was no pool or access, which was not true. Nor was I informed that they have an evening restuarant on site. I did not feel welcome. But cleanliness, and location were great.

Great location! Lots of food choices around. The best being Maybe Sammy - one of the top 50 bars in the world. It’s so so fun! The facilities are slightly outdated, but it’s as clean as any old building can be, and the location and price make up for it! Would stay again.
