This is a really stylish and compact apartment that serves as a great base for exploring the Sydney North Shore. Melissa has put lots of extra special touches around to give the unit a really homely feel. Melissa quickly responded when we got locked out of the apartment and has lots of tips for local attractions and transport options. It's about a 45 minute train ride to the City with the station a five minute walk away. Wahroonga village is great for a casual bite and has an IGA, and Hornsby Westfield is five minutes down the road. It is on the main road so while the traffic noise is noticeable, it was not a problem for us as we have young kids who are up early. This is a really professionally run air b'n'b - thank for hosting us Melissa.
