I really enjoyed staying in Rob and Amanda's flat. It was just as described and clean, light and with all the necessary amenities.
The bed was INCREDIBLY COMFORTABLE! This was bliss especially after big days exploring some of Sydney. Linen and towels were clean and fresh.
There is a light, spacious feel to this flat. Off the bedroom, there's a small, shady courtyard. It was great to be able to keep the sliding door (with screen) open during the night and feel absolutely safe.
I loved the area - if you like interesting inner-city environments, Newtown is a vibrant area. The flat is about a 10 minute walk to the train station and buses (though I didn't use this service) run along nearby King Street to central Sydney. Close by, there is a cinema, a supermarket, a natural whole foods shop, plus heaps of other retail and foodie places to choose from.
Rob and Amanda were responsive and welcoming hosts and I would definitely stay at their place again.
