Fran was out of town during our stay so arranged for her friend to let us in. Fran stayed in touch and we exchanged emails. I could have phoned her if I had had a problem.
This apartment is a cool quiet oasis. It was ideally equipped clean and welcoming. We loved staying there. It is quite close to Manly tho a little walk to the bus stop. There are 2 beaches well within walking distance.
We used the wonderful Manly ferry to get into the city.
We had a car. I think this is the ideal solution to making the most of this lovely place.
