The bed was not comfortable and felt as though springs were coming through the mattress. The bed was very close to the ground and creaked when you rolled. Couldn’t access the balcony attached to the room. Decor dated. Exhaust fan in bathroom was noisy. Glassware and plates were less than average. Air conditioning didn’t work properly. Very disappointed.

My stay was a couple months ago now but what I remember is that pool was out of commission, I couldn't open my balcony door (locked for safety during external maintenance on the property) and having to go over the road for my "included" breakfast that I'd paid extra for. The room was spacious & clean, at least. It was comfortable stay but what you're paying for in this establishment is the location - and frankly there's better close-by for the same money.

Booked a 3 Bedroom Penthouse, The room was dated and needed a good clean . The TV was useless and despite pointing this out on first day nothing was done to fix it . The building was undergoing a much needed face lift so all the doors to the balcony’s were locked … the only good thing I’d say was it’s in a very central location …. Would I stay here again …NO

Construction happening right outside my balcony. Unimaginable noise. Yes there is a notice that waa pointed out to me as I went down to have a chat with the front desk but if you are literally checking someone into a room which has Tradesmen on your balcony wirkimg, maybe let them know? I had a call to take from the room which I had to cancel since it was too late to

We deliberately chose a room with a balcony only to discover on arrival that ongoing work precluded us from accessing it. This could have been made clear when we were booking it. The carpet was in sad shape but otherwise we were happy with the room.

Room was so spacious including nice balcony deck w/table and chairs and view of some of park as well as many other buildings. Very clean, included Washer & Dryer, Bedroom w/comfy bed, nice sofa & dining set as well as 2 TV's, full kitchen w/fridge, microwave, dishes, etc. Breakfast was at nearby hotel but had lots of food & beverage choices. Hotel also provided umbrellas which we needed often. Location is very central to many things. Didn't use any extra ammenities as was too busy out sightseeing for 6 days. Ubers picked and dropped off was across street. Restaurants close by especially downhill by Darling Harbor. Only issue is maybe windows could use cleaning.
