The location and cleanliness can't be beat. We walked to a great book store and several excellent restaurants. We also walked to Circular Quay, the opera house, the botanical gardens and took the ferry to the zoo and other ferry locations. The place was very clean, with everything you'd need for a decent stay. The only drawback for me was the scented sticks, which I'm allergic to, but we put them in the cupboard and it was no problem.
