We didn't meet our host but got the key from an airport drop-off. We were told to look for the big shoe. Unfortunately we approached from the Leeds St end and there were several big shoes depicted on the ground. However when we located the building (big shoe painted on the wall), access was straight forward. The apartment was light and comfortable and offered everything we needed and the central location was excellent. We enjoyed being able to go downstairs to the Leeds St bakery for breakfast or coffee and walk a couple of minutes to Cuba St restaurants. Noise sensitive people need to be aware that the apartment building is surrounded by bars and Saturday night was noisy until dawn.
