The property is relatively new and clean. The staff were friendly. There are no toiletries apart from a bath soap. Although the facilities were clean, the only reason I gave three stars was because there were some school kids who were part of a camp who stayed above and below our room and there was absolutely no peace and quiet

The hotel was built on an archeological site visible through the passage to the reception, cafeteria, and the rooms. The hotel modern, simply clean and functional, having a terrace with fantastic view to the Opera House and the surrounding downtown skyscrapers.

Location and view from rooftop were outstanding! Top bunk bed was difficult to navigate, so we ended up putting it on the floor. Staff was very accommodating. Highly recommend.

Pricey for a basic room - obvs paying for location in The Rocks. Lots of stairs to navigate in the area, but with that in mind it is close to ferries, Opera House.
