Good value accommodation in Bondi Beach. If you don't mind (or if you like) the student house vibe, then this place could well be for you. We really liked it. I won't be able to add anything to what's already been said about this gorgeous Sydney suburb. Do the Bondi to Coogee cliff-top walk. Eat at Shuk. Get coffee and a muffin at Bills. I could go on; I won't. The room Ellen is renting out has the right furniture and a super-comfy bed. The (gift) soap was a nice touch. The bathroom is pretty run-down - but the shower is great, and that's what matters, right? Right. The kitchen is a decent size and has everything you need to make a meal (except, perhaps, a good ceiling light). There's a lovely patio and a scruffy garden out back. Overall the house is pretty shabby, albeit in a loveable kind of way - but that's reflected in the price. It really did remind me of a typical UK student house ca. 2006 - so, as I said above, if plush and polished AirBnBs are your thing this place isn't for you. For various reasons (key practice, house design, etc.) this isn't a particularly secure AirBnB - it's a very safe area but if you're one of those paranoid people who can't sleep or go out unless your kit is triple-locked away, then you probably shouldn't stay here. Finally, I should say that we never met Ellen herself - but it didn't matter as she was very responsive on email and mobile. However we DID meet one of her flatmates/other tenants(?) who gave us a very sharp telling off for walking too loudly when we arrived back at the house at 11 PM on a Sunday night. We were making an effort to be quiet at the time and only whispering, and we couldn't do anything about the somewhat creaky hall floorboards. This incident overshadowed what otherwise would've been a very easy and fun stay. On the flipside, a different tenant - Josh - was super-nice, helpful, and friendly. Thanks Josh!
