The location provided quick access to the harbour via Pyrmont Bridge. The reception area looks great and is very trendy. I enjoyed the free snacks provided. It was a nice touch. I found the minibar items included to be quite generous.

The room was very cramped and it felt poorly ventilated. The extraction fan did not work in the bathroom. It was annoying to discover this issue . I hope this is addressed.
