Tabitha's place was lovely, room condition as described and my parents and I enjoyed staying there as we cooked dinner during our stay. Tabitha was a very friendly host and quickly responded to all our questions and concerns which we very appreciated.
One thing I want to add is if you're looking to be right near the opera house or where the shopping action is, it's s little far from there. it took us 40-50min by foot (we stopped on the way a few times to take pictures and stuff) from room to Park Hyatt hotel which is across from the opera house and were too tired to walk back in the afternoon after shopping near Hyde park. We took a cab. It cost around 15-20 AUD fyi so while the place is very nice, if you like to visit Hyde park every day then keep in mind the distance. But if youre accustomed to traveling by foot, then I believe it's no problem. Also, it felt a little dangerous at night to go out - not sure dangerous is the right word but kind of like sanfrancisco dangerous? Nothing bad happened and we weren't approached by any strangers but just the hotel is in a quiet place away from busy streets so despite the neighborhood being safe, just be careful and I don't recommend walking alone. It was a pleasant lovely stay nonetheless.
