Our host Melanie certainly made us feel welcome and comfortable, and went out of her way to help us with various small issues - to do with jackets and the weather, with getting us home from the ferry, and advising on routes to the conference we attended. Hunter Hill is interesting and beautiful, the apartment is well-situated, and the ferry to Circular Quay is not far. The apartment is renovated and very comfortable. The guest room is likewise very comfortable, though not huge. Overall, for our needs the location was ideal and the accommodation very pleasant.
