We love, love, loved the location of Shaun's apartment. Shaun was excellent help with the details of local shops, spots to eat and public transport options. We bought local artisan bread (10 mins return, Woolies too) for breakfast on the balcony (didn't make the funky cafe in next building)and walked (20 mins one way) to Sydney's fish market for freshly caught fish. Central station was less than 10 mins easy walk. The apartment was well equipped and clean. Shaun was flexible with our arrival and made sure we were able to contact him if needed. The only small down side was the two flights of stairs to apartment.
