Monica and her husband were great hosts. Their apartment was clean and in a safe area of town. Monica offered her washer/dryer and her dish washing machine, and made sure we felt at home while we visited Sydney. We met her whole family, and had a wonderful conversation with them before we left. Very nice people. Her apartment was as described in the advertisement.

The apartment is about a 25 minute walk from Coogee Beach, which I highly recommend you visit. You can bus anywhere in the city and it is likely the easiest way to get around. We didn't want to deal with adapting to driving on the left side of the road, so we decided to bus everywhere. Its inexpensive to do this. Visit the local grocery store called IGA and purchase an Opal card in order to use the subways+buses. This trip was amazing! I'd do it again in a heart beat!
