My family of four (with a 4 year and 8 month old) enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anyone looking for something in the Bondi Beach area. Overall it was an excellent value,and had the following positives:
- Excellent location. It's right in the heart of things, surrounded by restaurants, with an easy walk to the beach. The train is a quick car ride or 25 min walk.
- Child friendly. I appreciated the toys and portacot.
- Great price
- Parking. We drove, so free parking was key. However, getting there was tricky (see below)
Some negatives:
- Entering. The only way to enter is through one side of O'Brien St (it looked like there used to be a way through Cox St., but a post had been put up preventing it)
- Check in. The parking garage is gated, which is good, but the only way to open the gate is with a remote that is kept inside the apartment, so you have to find a place to park, get the key and run upstairs, grab the gate remote, and then run back downstairs to open the gate. This isn't a huge deal if you're ready for it, but wasn't clear when we arrived at 10pm
- Ants. Little ants were a constant issue during our stay, and I could leave anything out (i.e. a box of cereal)
Both the negatives are relatively easy to fix, and, overall, our stay was fun.
