This was the first time my family and I stayed in an AirBnB and we all LOVED it. Melinda's place was a gem. The house was very clean and was equipped with a hairdryer, ironing board, laundry detergent and many more, which meant that we didn't have to pack a lot of things in our suitcase. Our plane arrived very early in the morning and Melinda kindly allowed us to leave our luggage at the foyer whilst the cleaners were busy getting the place in tip top condition for our stay (a guest had just checked out at 10am) Rick (Melinda was away on hols) was so kind as to show us around the apartment. Communication between Melinda was phenomenal. I would get a quick response, every time. Melinda did check on us to find out if the stay was going well. The apartment is close to Coles and Aldi (cheaper alternative to Coles). The bus stop is only a 3-4 min walk away and the buses take you to most places of interest, otherwise most buses go to Central where you can catch the trains or trams. Overall, I think staying in this apartment is a great deal better than staying in a hotel because it's affordable, and fully equipped with the necessary amenities. It's literally less than a short 30 min walk to the heart of Sydney CBD, what more could you ask for?! Thanks a lot Melinda.
