Sam’s place is exactly as described and was the perfect base for us to explore Sydney from. It’s a good 40 minute walk to the main waterfront, but the buses and trains are very easy and close by - to be so centrally located for the price was a dream and we didn’t mind the walk as it’s a great way to explore.
The bed was super comfy and it was really convenient for us to have a washer dryer and clothes rack as we’d been travelling for a while! The space was bigger than I expected from the pictures, and inside the flat has been well maintained (if not modern) and really is amazing value for the area, which is filled with brilliant cafes/bakeries/brunch spots. The corridors to access the flat are probably in need of a facelift and smell of smoke from other occupants, but once inside the flat you’d never know! It was remarkably quiet given the main road and we were never disturbed by outside noise at all.
I would 100% recommend
