    The whole experience, great staff, nice room, easy access in and out of the hotel, liked that the fobs were made out of wood, nice sized TV, not that I got a big chance to use it.

    Great service. Loved the amenities, Honour bar and attention to detail. Great communal spaces like the rooftop to relax and sit with friends. Comfortable rooms. Convenient location in the middle of surry hills but still very quiet.
