Positive Reviews
positive:
Charming rooms
The rooms at the Sydney Harbour Bed & Breakfast generally impress guests, with many commenting on how the quirky old features complement the modern conveniences to create charming surroundings. There are shortcomings such as a limited number of plugs but the view of Harbour Bridge (from some rooms) should make up for that.
positive:
Friendly hosts
Guests almost unfailingly find Linda and James, the owners of this B&B, to be friendly and accommodating toward guests. They seem to go out of their way to assist and are willing to help with everything from local tips to long-term luggage storage.
positive:
Excellent location
You can't really find fault with the location of the B&B. Guests love how they can walk to many Sydney attractions and also appreciate the number of restaurants in the area. Also, two train stations and the Circular Quay ferry are within a ten-minute walk, making it simple to explore further afield.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Shared bathrooms won't suit everyone
Some of the rooms at this property share bathroom facilities. On the plus side, there appear to be no issues regarding cleanliness and the number of people sharing a bathroom appears to be limited to those in two rooms max. However, shared facilities don't suit everyone.
negative:
Breakfast doesn't vary
A number of guests mention that although they enjoyed the breakfast, they would have preferred there to be more variety from day to day. Over a longer stay, breakfast has the potential to feel a little boring. That said, this area is not short of alternative breakfast venues.
negative:
Some reports of noise
Although the location of the B&B near Sydney Harbour Bridge is appealing, it also seems that it comes with a little background noise. Few guests found the noise excessive but it may present an issue to light sleepers.
