We loved our time here. Strathfield is a little far from the city but the train made it easy to get in and out of Sydney. Plus we loved all of the asian food options nearby. While we didn't meet Ying, the man in the main house who showed us around was very nice and we didn't have trouble, even though he didnt speak English. The granny flat is sparse but we had everything we needed and appliances were new. One complaint is that the gate (which is right outside the window) was pretty loud but wasn't too much of a bother. Would happily stay again.
