I stayed here recently with my 12 year old daughter. This is a really comfortable and cosy space very conveniently located in Marrickville. Very comfortable bed with plenty of bedding options and a mattress on the floor for my daughter. There is plane noise as noted but a good pair of earplugs works to block it out. Lots to keep you occupied if you are staying in (books, cds, tv). Marrickville Metro is a 20 minute walk although you can catch a bus part-way there. We ordered take away from the thai restaurant around the corner and it was delicious. We hope to stay again soon!
