Location, location, location!! Around the block from the beach... and the best restaurants / shops. My friend and I were traveling for 3 weeks and Bondi was a stop along the way... Bens place was by far one of the best located places we stayed in all our travels. Additionally, we didn't have to worry about arriving early in the day as we could store our bags in a storage unit downstairs before check-in time. The convenience of the washer/dryer was also a huge plus. Overall, great place to stay.
