If you are looking for something close to the airport, Beverly and Michael's place can't be beat. Literally one stop from SYD domestic terminal or two from SYD international. My stay was exceptional, in addition to the room/private bathroom, Beverly and Michael went out of their way to add unique touches, putting filtered drinking water in my room and offering me breakfast in the morning. In addition they were lovely hosts! We had some great conversations about my travel and some of their recommendations for Sydney and other parts of Australia.
