Great location for the Rozelle and Balmain areas (right by the three weeds but on a quiet street). Great access to local cafes and buses which take you to the beach or the CBD.

The host was really good at being flexible around my needs for check in and check out which was brilliant after such a long flight. And they left me to come and go as I liked once I was settled, which suited me perfectly. On one occasion, the owner even drove me into the CBD which was really kind.

It does get hot in the room (although they've provided a Dyson fan to help a bit) and there's also a long-term lodger in the house (who I never saw) so it's a bit more like a share house. But there's a really good shower and you have free access to use of the kitchen etc.
