My first experience with Airbnb and this was an amazing experience. I was a traveller with another female.
Location: 2 minutes from the train station, Coles, Woolies, Harris (supermarkets) nearby (never go hungry!). I didn't get a chance to enjoy the many cafes and restaurants around the area but there were many plenty to choose from. The back of the apartment, where Kings Cross is can get busy over the weekend and the bar down the street can be loud but it didn't bother me much.
Apartment: well-stocked, very clean and spacious, I had the bed/room to myself and my friend was extremely comfortable on the couch/living room. She especially loved the city skyline view every morning. The lift was old school special and being a city-girl, that was fun for me. Hugh was very responsive and helpful. Parking is difficult around this area if you rent a car, I didn't use the go-get rental option though every time I drove past the car and its designated parking space - I wish I did. Breezy walk into the city takes 20-30 minutes (winter weather made it more bearable). Has a heater in the living room which helped the colder rainy nights but the duvet in the bedroom was more than enough to keep me warm. It also helped that I use the same washer/dryer at home, plus everything (detergent and febreeze!) was well provided for. Including the hair-dryer! I do wish there was another mirror other than the one in the bathroom though.
Nothing but good words - I will definitely rent this apartment again.
Thanks Hugh!
