Upon arriving in Sydney, we actually cancelled our reservation here and ended up staying with family. Unfortunately it was too late to get a refund, but Valerie very kindly gave us a partial reimbursement herself, which wasn't necessary but greatly appreciated!
The location is great, close to the train station, and there are also good parking options just around the corner. When we found the place we couldn't find the lock box that the key was meant to be in, but Valerie was home and let us in. We only stayed a few hours, it was a very hot day so the place felt a little stuffy and had a bit of a smell, which improved after airing the room out a bit. The private room is quite small (for us as a couple at least, it would be a bit more comfortable for one person). Overall the house is quite clean and would be fine for a short visit to Sydney. And Dodger is a super sweet big pup!
