I've stayed in this appartment for a week in May 2014 and I would say that the area and the appartment itself is a perfect option for the first visit Sydney (and for the followings ones in my case) with a great value of money.

Beautiful Art Deco building with a cosy appartment filled with lots of details like retro furniture, old school radio, statuettes, designer lamps, other decoration elements and books. There are also a huge supply of towels, bed sheets and kitchen ware and other small and useful things. And the cherry on the cake is a rooftop terrase with a view on CBD and equipment for sunbathing or bbq. It's a public zone but I didn't seen anyone there during the week I stayed at the place.

Great for one of two guest, three is also comfortable.

Hugh McCullum is a very comfortable host - booking and other organizaitional questions were set easily and quickly. I guess Hugh is also very helpful with introducation of the city and cafes/restaurants suggestions I just prefer to make everything on my own.

So I wish you to have a nice stay here or at other's Hugh's flats which are also very nice and have their onw benefits and atmosphere aspects.

Try great ROOM10 cafe just behind your bulding with always lively atmosphre and crowds around it - I don't like sandwiches but these ones are special - best for breakfast and morning coffee.

Remark:
Before I choosed this place I have made a some research staying in three different hotels recommended by tablethotels in central area: CBD, Darling Harbour and Woolloomooloo bay and also making morning runs so I examined Drummoyne, Balmain, Darling Harbour, Elizabeth Bay as well. In my opininom Potts Point/Woolloomooloo is the best area to stay in Sydney for the first time - with its great natural (real) atmoshpere of the city, selection of restaurants, cafes and shops and 15-20 minute walking to CBD area (that good to visit and to have dinner but not for living) through the beautiful Royal Garden and great NSW Art Gallery in its center.

Thank you, Hugh for such a great place!
