I stayed at Ian's place for 2-weeks whilst attending a course at RPA, which was only a pleasant 10-minute walk away. The flat was modern and clean. Other plus points were that the train station (MacDonald Town) was 5-minutes away, and the Newtown main strip was bustling with activity if you were looking for something to do. The only downside was that you occasionally heard the train passing by down the tracks, but this quietened down by night time. Overall a pleasant stay.
