The apartment is in a fantastic location - just a short walk to all the groovy spots in Surry Hills/Paddington and the Art Gallery and Botanic Gardens and only about 20 mins walk to town. The view is as good as the picture. The apartment is fairly basic inside and sparsely furnished, but there is a good kitchen with all the pots and we really appreciated the tea pot and big canister of leaf tea. Mer was a lovely host, did not mind us checking in late as our flight was later and let us check out late when we left. There is no iron though so bear that in mind when you are packing! There are terrific local cafes, coffee joints, bars and Kings Cross station about 2 mins away which is also really good, but despite that the neighbourhood is very quiet and safe. A most enjoyable place to stay.
