This apartment was very clean and basically equivalent to staying in a hotel. Its not a lived in space and is solely a rental space thus everything is modern, new and clean :) My only complaint is the 9AM CHECK OUT. I missed it somehow when booking and I feel since I was paying hotel rates I should of received the standard hotel check out time of 11 am or 12 noon. Really felt a 9 AM check out time was unfair. SO JUST BEWARE and pay close attention to the details on listing when booking. (Also has a high security deposit of $700 which isn't standard so just be mindful).
Other then that the apt is very nice... its is in a happening, hipster neighborhood... great location, just blocks away from the beach. There is plenty to do in the area. There is a great healthy cafe across the street which I really enjoyed since I like to eat healthy and many Sydney restaurants don't have healthy food. One great thing about this place is all you need to get in is a code - no fuss with keys, which was very convenient. The kitchen is stocked with plates, pots, cutlery so cooking is possible. I would suggest the host get some basic condiments for guest like salt, pepper and olive oil. Over all great place.
