Galina and Tom went out of their way to make us feel at home. We had an one year old baby with us, and even offering ourselves to get one of those travel cots, several places (some of those with the "suitable for children and families" message set) turned us down. Galina and Tom actually offered us a cot and a high chair, and those items made a real difference in the quality of our stay.

The apartment is small but well designed, the bed is good, and the bathroom is clean, and the kitchen is equipped with good appliances. The train rails are right behind the granny flat, so if you have problems with noise that could be a problem, but I must admit the I actually enjoyed the sound. =)

The Marrickville train station is a short walk away, giving access to the city (30 minutes, tops), and there is a Woolworths within walking distance.

We had a very nice stay, and I recommend Galina's place to anyone looking for comfortable stay in Sydney.
