The positives:
• Great location. Easy walking access to beach, good restaurants and shops. Easy to get to anywhere in Sydney using buses.
• Great view of bay from living room. Particularly at sunset.
• Good deal. Very affordable room in a great location.
• Quiet room.
The negatives:
• No one received me and explained how things work at the apartment.
Room and bathroom were not in good shape:
• Shattered mirrors and windows
• Walls with bad paint jobs
• Missing shower curtain
• Electrical outlets don't work (only outlets that work are behind the bed, you had to push the bed aside to be able to charge anything).
• No AC or screens on windows (so no option of opening the window)
• No toilet paper. Host asked me to buy toilet paper when I asked for it.
