Dave maintained with us a very fluid communication and was willing to make the check-in and the check-out as easy as possible. The apartment corresponds quite well to the pictures and the description. It has light coming in from three sides of the building (and it is on the top floor), it is well-equipped and well maintained. The terrace is also a great feature (and large).
Although it is in a nice, quite residential neighborhood, we did not find it as close to the beach as the description indicated (it took us rather 25-30 mins. walking) nor very close to lively areas (although this could have been due to the period we were there, around New Year). On the other hand, you can see the New Year's fireworks over Sydney Harbour from one of the several nearby hills walking no more than 7 mins. from the apartment.
We would have probably liked to see the apartment a bit better furnished (to increase its functionality and coziness) but this might depend on what each guest expects (so check the pictures before making a decision).
