I cannot recommend Fumi and Lucie and their flat enough!!! I (Anne, Scott's daughter) came to Sydney for a two-month internship In Alexandria and was so worried I wasn't going to find a safe and beautiful flat with owners that would be willing to host me for that long. Fumi and Lucie were an absolute Godsend! The apartment is located in a safe student town (University of Technology Sydney mainly) and being right across the street from Broadway Shopping center was invaluable (groceries, restaurants, clothing, electronics, even a flower market and more right at your fingertips) and it was also walking distance to all the main bus stops that will take you nearly everywhere. If you were feeling ambitious, you can even walk to Central Station or China Town!
The stairs in the apartment were a little hard to get up with them being so small and curvy, so maybe not the best for someone with mobility struggles, but I could've honestly lived on the bottom floor and been content with the awesome fold-out sofa, big TV, sliding glass door to a beautifully lit indoor courtyard, stunning bathroom, and well-organized kitchen.
And then the hosts themselves were some of the nicest and truly caring people I've ever met! Being quite young and alone at many times throughout my trip, I always knew that I could call them if need be and they'd help out as a parent would, which meant the world.
So if you're ever wanting to stay at a beautiful place in the heart and soul of Glebe, stay at Fumi and Lucie's flat! x
