The host was really exceptional when it came to making me feel welcome especially because I was going to be new to the city. He and his daughter provided insightful advice from a locals point of view about how to best make the transition of moving to Sydney as smooth as possible. The host's daughter answered my numerous emails with detailed and thoughtful replies, met me upon arrival to show me the place and neighborhood and was really friendly and helpful throughout. Lastly when I had to reach the host, he really did his best to help me the best he could.

In terms of the location, it's a great spot. It's minutes from the beach with plenty of cafés and restaurants and only a 10 to 15 minute bus ride to bondi junction which is like a mini cbd and 30 mins to the center of Sydney.

Its a good place for young people who like to go out and socialize because there are lots of people around doing the same. It would be especially fantastic in the summer months when the weather was warm.
