Jodie couldn't be there during our trip but still managed to be an excellent host; she emailed before and during our stay and made sure that we had local contacts in case of any problems (there were none).
The apartment itself is clean, bright and tastefully furnished with good quality fittings and comfortable sofa and seats. The picures do make it look perhaps a bit more spacious than it really is, but it was perfectly adequate for four adults. There is loads of storage in the bedrooms. The wi-fi and TV worked well. Good dishwasher, coffee machine is nice. The washing machines are outside in the back yard and shared with the other 3 apartments in the house. The rest of the building is a bit tired and could do with the same treatment as Jodie's flat.
The air-conditioning was quiet and effective even at very low settings, but only in one bedroom; the other bedroom really needs it as well in hot steamy weather like we had in January.
The situation is great for visiting Sydney. Twenty minutes brisk walk gets you to the Botanic Gardens and another 5 or 10 takes you to the centre. However the bus service from the end of the road 2 minutes away is great, Circular Quay one way and Watson's Bay the other with a frequent service. King's Cross station is only 5 minutes walk with very frequent trains to Bondi Junction and to the city and beyond the other way. There is a good city supermarket also only 5 minutes walk away. It would probably have taken us half a year to eat at every restaurant within a 10 minute walking radius.
We hired a car on one day only and we had somewhere to park it overnight, but anyone driving here needs to sort out parking in advance.
Overall we were very pleased to stay here and would happily recommend it.
