Richard's apartment was in a great location with a lovely view over a nearby park. It was comfortable.
Just over 5 mins walk to Hyde Park, 3 mins to a bus stop which gave quick access to Circular Quay. Not much further to the main shopping area.
Good local amenities including a variety of resturants and a good supermarket which is right next to the bus top.
