We were allowed to check in early which was great because we were so tired. The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from Central Station and Haymarket. Breakfast was wonderful.

Great location
The hotel is convenient for Central station, UTS and the University of Sydney. The room was small and basic but clean and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was good.
