Clean hotel

Clean hotel, room was nice, and Queen beds were just right Breakfast Buffett was good but on pricey side will hold bags after checkout to grab later in the day when ready to go to plane. Next to Chinatown if you love Asian food. Would stay there again

Central hotel with everything

Great service, room ready two hours before check in, room spotless. Loved the central location for shopping, central station and opera house etc. Only complaint was house service was at 5pm, been out since 8am and just back before 5pm.
