My husband and I stayed at Marcella’s house and she was very accommodating as our visit was last minute and we only reserved a couple of days beforehand. Although we never met Marcella everything we needed was communicated to us prior and we had no issues.
The apartment itself was a decent size for 2 people (although it may be on the small side for any more than 2) and included all basic amenities you would need. It’s an older style apartment with no heating but there is an electric blanket on the bed which was a great touch. The proximity to both Bondi Beach (20 mins walk) and Bondi Junction are definitely plus’s but as the apartment is situated on a main road there is a lot of street noise which my husband struggled with so maybe not the best if you are a light sleeper (I had no issues myself).
All in all a nice stay!
