Emma's place is in a great location and central to shops, transport and the heart of Kings Cross. It's a nice stroll to Darlinghurst or Wooloomooloo which leads into the Botanic Gardens. Great if you are a tourist and new to Sydney, everything is at your fingertips. We chose this area because of the proximity and ease of getting around to visit family and our usual haunts.
The apartment is small, but met our needs. The lounge is a tad hard and uncomfortable, however we didn't spend a lot of time inside so it was no big deal. We did have issues with the lockbox, so make sure your phone has a torch app as you'll need it to be able to see the code numbers. The box is at the back of the letterbox and I sat on the floor whilst trying to get it unlocked. A neighbour appeared and commented that she often comes across people having difficulties. It's quite a narrow space to get your hand into, so a bit of perseverence is required.
Parking was easy at the station in the next street, and not very expensive either. I wouldn't bother with attempting to find street parking as most of it is one hour only.
We were lucky to have beautiful clear days and to see the sunrise was a bonus from the 7th floor. A great weekend in a great and historic part of Sydney.
