This is a young area of Sydney but a friendly and welcoming one that's bordered by Moore Park and Surry Hills to the North. Danks Street is worth a visit especially for a lazy breakfast/brunch or a walk up Bourke Street and into Crown Street for a gastronomic smorgasbord of treats!
I stayed for nearly two months working in the city and it met all of my needs well, it was clean, comfortable and I felt safe.
