Bob and his place come highly recommended...for good reason! He's a wonderful host! He was very easy to communicate with. I found his place quite wonderful and combined with Bob's demeanor, I was placed in a very comfortable mood. His house as well as the room I stayed in were very clean. The one thing of concern that I shall note is that he does have a steep spiral staircase, just in case you have any knee or hip problems. But, there is a back stairway that is much more manageable in the case an alternate route upstairs is required. Bob was also gracious enough to provide a print out of local sites to possibly visit as well as other areas of interests. I found this and his own knowledge very helpful. The location of his house is in close proximity (few minutes walk) to the city. If you don't feel like walking, you can take an Uber for approx. $10 or $20 depending on the time of day and of course distance. Or, you can take the train which is cheaper...train station is just a few minutes walk away. Bob was very generous and provided fruit as well as breakfast foods in the fridge to eat...thanks again Bob! I will definitely book with him again as I will now be a regular visitor to Sydney.
