The APX Darling Harbour is in an excellent location. Just step out the door and you are in Chinatown with lots of great restaurants to choose from. It’s also just a short walk to most of the main attractions including Darling Harbour itself and the new entertainment centre, our main reason for staying there. Central Station and the light rail are easily accessible too. The room was clean, comfortable and well equipped, although the TV could be a little bigger and the couch was a bit old. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay.

The location is absolutely amazing! The apartment was reasonably clean and the kitchen is decently setup. 5 minutes walk to darling harbor as well as China town. Dining options are almost endless The only cons I have are: The staff are almost non existent The property's entrance is outdated & rundown I would definitely stay there again given the price

The room was clean and a great size. The sofa bed was terrible, the mattress was so thin the metal bar in the middle was able to be felt. It actually appeared bent/ broken. We ended up doubling over the mattress, using the lounge pillows at the end and getting an extra blanket and pillow to fill the gap. It worked but wasn’t ideal. If booking again I would as for a king bed room instead and share with my two kids. Apart from that staff were lovely and helpful, the room was nice and we had a good stay.
