mediocre stay with minor issues

shower design inexperienced staff

the location was acceptable being near darling harbour.

i had issues with the bathroom the water from the shower went all over the floor it was like a wet room with no handrail at all. the dim lighting made it hard to see in the halls with the navy walls. the staff seemed inexperienced during check-in it took longer than expected.
