Chinatown- here we come! After 17 hours on a plane, I think a one mile walk to chinatown will do us good. and yes, I agree. I don't think I could 'see' SYD in less than a month! But two days it is, before we head over to NZ for two weeks.
I was in Sydney for three nights as well in March this year staying at the 4pts property. I got a Plat upgrade to a suite with a harbourview balcony for about $95 USD per night. Chinatown is not very far at all. You will find most convenience stores have Internet Access if you need one (there are at least two within short walking dist. from the hotel). And if you'll be there during weekend (Fri to Sun), don't forget to visit the Paddy's market, one of the largest flea markets in town. I bought the 3-day Sydney Pass which lets you travel free on all buses, trains, ferries plus their explorer buses
