This lovely Studio apartment offered a delightful home base for me while visiting family in East Balmain. Within easy distance of the ferry to Darling harbour and Circular Quay in Sydney, it is an ideal location for anyone wanting calm respite from busy city life. Spotlessly clean, Susannah has equipped the apartment with everything necessary for a comfortable stay. The L shaped studio has a small, very adequate kitchen area at one end and a separate bathroom with large walk in shower. The apartment is on the ground floor of her home, with a separate entrance enclosed by a small leafy verandah. It is situated in a quiet neighbourhood with little vehicle activity due to the steep, narrow laneway on which the apartment is sited. The daily climb was initially challenging as I came and went each day but actually I grew more fit as the two weeks went past! (East Balmain itself is particularly hilly.) Susannah was a great host, easy to contact, friendly and welcoming. Throughout my stay, she was always concerned for my comfort and enjoyment of the area, which in itself offers good restaurants, pubs and interesting shopping opportunities including two fantastic bookshops.
If I had a recommendation to make others' stay more pleasurable, I might suggest adding a comfortable chair to relax or read at the end of the day.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Susannah's lovely apartment.
