I enjoyed the solitude at night, despite the seagulls calling. The Fire Station Studio is ideal and very comfortable for a long weekend, with a variety of walks around the island. I didn't take a tour this time but will in future. The only disappointing aspect was the lack of better variety of food available at the kiosk. The menu at the Marina Cafe & Bar was slightly better but not a great deal re vegetables or fruit. I mainly self-catered after I shopped over the water at Barangaroo. Kitchen at the studio is well set up for self-catering. I will certainly recommend to friends and family who may come to Sydney and hopefully will enjoy another stay there.
