Pros
-accessible, 15 minute walk from Kings Cross and tons of bus stops around that connect you to the city.
- plenty of food and store options in the neighborhood
-Anwar is very responsive and good at communicating. They were very sweet hosts
- easy check in process
- felt safe as a solo female traveler in the area at night
Cons
- it's not listed in the description but the flat is shared with the two hosts and they rent 3 bedrooms out. There could be 5-7+ people in the apartment during your stay. I shared the bathroom with 5 people and found it difficult to use the facilities at times.
- the walls are VERY thin. Bring earplugs if you stay because you will hear people at all times of the day and night.
- the smoke detector was beeping every 2 minutes upon arrival and when asked when it would be fixed they said they had contacted someone but three days later it was still beeping. Hence the earplugs.
- wifi was not very strong and made working difficult for me
