This was my first Airbnb experience so I have no comparison, but I thought it was a really lovely place. I was able to drop off my bags early after arriving early and could have come back 15 minutes later to fully check in but opted to go see the city since I wasn't as jet lagged as expected.

If anything I think the photos don't do the place justice, particularly the balcony and its view. Most of the time I was there I spent on the balcony.

Amenities were good. Location isn't right in the core, but I preferred that. It's quiet and feels like a real living neighbourhood. The building itself is very quiet, I only saw one other person and rarely heard anyone. It wasn't too much of a trip either into the core or out to Bondi. There are lots of food options nearby.
