The property was a delight to stay in. It was close enough to the city that you didn't feel too far, but also just far enough so you have a bit of space. Highly recommend doing your grocery shop at South Eveleigh, rather than Redfern / Waterloo - as the area's are a completely different experience (you've been warned!).
The property is also right next to a main road, so please don't be surprised by the constant noise! The host, Dom, has done a great job in accommodating this by installing noise-reduction curtains. However, I would highly recommend checking that the windows can be closed and lock shut. We had a window that didn't fully lock and didn't realise it was leaking quite a lot of noise inside. We only found out halfway through our stay that someone could come in and help us lock it shut.
Also a consideration is that the building has lots of greenery inside and out. If you're staying here long term, be prepared to have a gardener come into the property to do some routine maintenance every 2 weeks. If your timing is also unlucky enough like us, the building manager will also need to come into the property to do pest control once every 12 months. These things are all expected and very common, but it was not communicated to us by the host until 1 or 2 days beforehand that entry into the property was required.
All in all, very comfortable stay and would still recommend if you're looking to stay somewhere close but not in the city.
