La was a great host. Before my arrival, he gave me some great tips for travel in Sydney. He met me personally upon my arrival, and he was very patient when I was late to arrive.

La's apartment is exactly as it is described online--huge, bright, open, and tastefully decorated. The couch and bed are both comfortable, and the kitchen has all the appliances one would want. The enormous deck does have a view to one of the bays in Sydney Harbour, and the roof-top view of the Harbour, Central Business District, and northern suburbs is breathtaking. The deck also has a large gas grill for a great al fresco dining experience in the middle of the city.

On the ground floor of La's apartment building are two restaurants that are very convenient for breakfast before a full day of touring. Don't miss the Eggs Benedict at the Paleo Café. Fantastic! There are also at least 20 restaurants within a five minute walk if you want variety.

Located no more than 5 minutes from the Bondi Junction bus and train station, La's apartment is a sightseer's dream. The downtown and waterfront areas are just minutes away by train, and the famous Bondi beaches are no more than 15 minutes by bus.

Best of all, the neighborhood is quiet in the evenings. The businesses close, and the hub-bub of the crowds melts away. It's the perfect place to rest after a long day of sight-seeing in preparation for more to come!

This was my first AirBNB experience, and I can't imagine going back to hotel living after this.
