The apartment is in an excellent location: only a two block walk to a very nice shopping mall (Top Ryde) which has every type of store one could need. The only parking is on the street and often it was very difficult to find a parking spot close by. The apartment has a washing machine for doing laundry, but no dryer, so that was often a problem. The apartment has a cat that loves to play and to be attended to. If the cat becomes lonely or wants to play it will frequently begin meowing, even at early hours of the morning.
