    Everything was great , Breakfast was expensive at the motel ,lunch at the pump house was very slow ,however the staff were lovely young people .
  • Frank
    Australia Australia
    The room was comfortable although the lounge was made up as a single bed for some reason. Would have been better to have the lounge as we only booked for 2 adults. The location is fabulous for the Aware Theatre & Darling Harbour in general.
