I had a mixed experience at Marco Polo Motor Inn. While the comfy bed allowed for a great night's sleep, I did face some issues with cleanliness and the outdated state of the room. The location is convenient with easy train access to the city, and plenty of dining options nearby. However, the lack of on-site amenities like breakfast and the noise from the surrounding area can be drawbacks. Overall, I might choose to stay again but just for a short visit. 🙂

My stay at Marco Polo Motor Inn was a mix of comfort and frustration. While the location was super handy for getting into Sydney and the bed was comfy, I found the motel itself pretty outdated and lacking in some basic amenities. Overall, I think it's a decent spot for a night or two, especially if you're looking for something budget-friendly, but it could use some serious TLC.
