Lots to recommend about this listing. Liz is an efficient and charming hostess and her beagle dogs are great fun too. The area is close to shops and bus lines, however, the trip in to the City (if you need to go) can take much longer than expected due to the number of stops and the road works that are being undertaken, so although the distance on paper is not far, it can easily take 40minutes or more. A half hour walk on flat terrain gets you to Maroubra beach which is a beautiful spot, well patrolled by life guards. The studio flat is spotlessly clean and well equipped. The bed was not very comfortable for us, being too firm, but that is personal preference. A very reasonably priced accommodation that delivers good value for money.
