After contacting several dozens of Airbnb hosts regarding our stay in Sydney during New Year’s Eve we were very lucky that Merrilyn gave us a positive reply and let us stay at her wonderful place during this busy season. We have greatly enjoyed staying at her spotlessly clean and stylishly decorated house, with own bathroom and a lot of privacy. The neighborhood is very quiet, but close to the city, so that reaching the Central Station and all major sights was never a problem (there is even a bus that goes directly to Coogee beach if you want!). The house is also not very far away from some good vantage points to see the famous New Year’s fireworks, which was perfect for us. All in all a great stay with an excellent host. Thank you Merrilyn!
