We met Stephanie's mother, Julie, the day we arrived in Sydney. Julie was nice enough to let us in well before the normal check-in time since our flight arrived at 6AM. She also offered to help us in any way possible, especially with my friend Josh's credit card issues.

The apartment was exactly as advertised. Clean, well furnished and well equipped. The location was also great, not a long walk to Central station which made it very convenient getting around Sydney. There are so many restuarants, bars and stores around that we could have stayed just in the Ultimo area and had a great time.

We were able to check out late on our last day as well which made our Taronga Zoo trip possible. Stephanie and Julie were so easy to work with and really made this stay special. Thanks!
