Great location with easy walk to Wynyard station (10 min), the Rocks (5 min), Circular Quay to catch ferry (10 min), Barangaroo (5 min), Sydney Harbor Bridge (5 min), and many other local sites. There is construction going on across the street in the harbor front, but it’s mainly during the day when you are out and about & it didn’t bother us. It’s in a historical building area with other similar units, many of which are being renovated at the moment. It is easy to find, and felt safe. There are many great food options nearby, as well as some convenience stores.
The place is spacious, simply furnished, and very clean. It worked well for our family of 5. The beds were basic, but comfortable. The washer dryer was very handy. The kitchen is decently equipped, but we only used the coffee pot and fridge. The TV has Netflix which was fun at night when winding down.
Lina the host was extremely responsive. One thing that makes this place stand out (beyond the location) is that it has a storage space for luggage if early check in is not possible. We were going to use this, but Lina had the place cleaned early, and we were able to check in early and get the keys from the cleaning crew at about 10 am.
We didn’t need to use the ac or heater, but both were available (looked like portable units). There were extra blankets and towels available, which were a nice touch.
It was a good value for the location and amenities, and we would gladly stay there again.
