Ariana's studio was as described and perfectly situated in proximity to the major attractions. We ended up walking to Sydney Opera House via the Botanical Gardens and took a ferry from Central Quay--all a leisurely stroll from this cute little apartment. While the actual apartment complex was very dated and in need of some TLC, Ariana's studio itself was a haven upon entering. The shower temperature was tricky to manipulate, but plenty of hot water was available as described. Ariana is a perfect hostess and provided all the information we needed and then sum. While we didn't actually meet Ariana, she supplied us with how-to notes and a bunch of suggestions on attractions, which were very helpful. She also directed us to a place where we could park overnight for free. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the studio just fit our group of 3 people. We would definitely stay here again!
