we loved Jose's apartment. the only down side is that there is no lift, but that's a really small issue.
his place was SUPER COZY yet spacious! the toilet was nice, and our house mates Zuzana and Matus were really friendly and helpful. (Matus helped bring our huge luggages up :) )
even though we did not get to meet Jose, he was clear with instructions and questions we had and replied us in good timing :)
the apt is just a 3 min walk away from Redfern station and is close to the city! bakeries and supermarket all around the vicinity :)
Super value for money! will totally recommend!
