We really enjoyed our stay in Steve's apartment. The location is great, its on the road that runs parallel to Coogee beach. While the road can be moderately busy, the traffic moves quite slowly and we didn't find that the noise disturbed us at all. We loved that the bus stop was directly across the road from the apartment building, so convenient for catching buses into the city or up to Randwick or to Bondi.
The apartment was clean and very comfortable and perfect for a couple. The bathroom is older style but was very clean and the hot water was great. The rest of the apartment is modern, had everything we needed and we felt very at home. It was lovely eating breakfast looking across to the sea.
We found Coogee was a perfect place to stay in Sydney. Its much more mellow and less touristy than Bondi and has a much nicer ambience, as well as everything you could need. We walked up Coogee Road to 'The Spot' in Randwick where there are a lot of fabulous eateries. The walk is about 20 minutes which we enjoyed but it is a 5 minute drive or 10 minute bus ride if you don't feel like walking.
Steve was a great host, he responded to our request to book very quickly, checked in with us a few days before we arrived, and again the evening before to let us know what time we could check in, and offered early check in. He contacted us again while we were there to make sure all was ok.
We couldn't have been happier and will most certainly stay here again.
