No need for a car, but if you've got one, park it for free in the designated slot and go exploring by foot or tram. This sweet unit has public transportation right outside the door - so easy! The beach and iconic Luna Park are just a few blocks away, and you can easily eat and shop your way to and from every day. The area is hip and cool with privately owned places (vs. big chains). If you want to cook in the well equipped kitchen, Tim stocked the cabinets and fridge with all the essentials. Anything else you might need can be found at the Cole's grocery market, just around the corner. The exterior of the building will not impress you, nor will the public areas inside - just very basic and serviceable, but the unit is modern and better equipped than just about any other place we've stayed around the globe. Tim was a great host, waiting for us, without complaint, when our flight was delayed. He also checked in by text to be sure all was going well, and to be available for any questions. I'd definitely stay here again.
