Ruth & Joe are great hosts with very generous hospitality (we stayed twice).
The best of our experience were:
. great space for a single or couple
. easy access to both trains and buses
. very thoughtful amenity with fresh fruit, teas & coffee, cheeses, juice, bread & biscuits, cold water, Opal cards (local travel cards in Sydney), power cubes for charging etc, kitchenette for simple meals
. lovely toilet and shower 'water space' - sort of like wet rooms in Japan and Indonesia
. soft furnishings and decor comfortable and interesting
. really appreciated bring able to use more than one each towel, washer etc
We could tell their place is important to Ruth and Joe - especially with the beautiful garden; we are looking forward to going back when we're next visiting our family in Sydney.
