We loved the location of Vickie’s apartment. The area was so quaint with many great cafes in short walking distance and the supermarket just across the street. The bus and train provided us easy access around and the walk to the Opera House and Harbor Bridge through the Royal Botanical Gardens was beautiful, though a bit long. It was relaxing to sit at the bar top and look out at the tree-lined street below or further out to the CBD skyline. We did find the apartment a bit tight when walking from the main living area to the entry hall where the mini fridge is with the bed lowered, so we probably should’ve raised it when not in use. When I slept I could sometimes feel the the bed frame through the mattress, so I think maybe a memory foam mattress might work a bit better, I’m not sure. There is a step up/down getting in and out of the shower with somewhat reduced headroom which won’t affect most people but could if someone had limited mobility or was very tall. The walls were thin but the neighbors were all quiet in the evenings. Vickie was so sweet to provide coffee, tea, water, muesli, and milk, and she provided us great tips and recommendations on places to go and how to get there! Vickie is truly a superstar host and you’ll be in great hands with her!!!
